Shrek star Mike Myers was kicked out of his favorite Los Angeles yoga class because he couldn’t contain himself when a mat neighbor kept farting. The funnyman admits he couldn’t concentrate and every time his gassy pal let rip, he started giggling.
The comic explains, “This guy kept farting and I am not very mature… I’m the youngest of three boys and if somebody farts, it’s funny. They were like, ‘We’re not here to laugh..’ but then he did it a second time, louder, and did it a third time and it sounded like a machine gun and I could not stop laughing.”
Myers was floored when the farter then turned to him and said, “I had a bad Chinese.”
Can you really kick Mike Myers out of class?


He’s Canadian; he’d let them do it. But I really think the farter should NOT be sharing that much about his sex life in yoga class.
Ok, I have to say I’m with Mike…it IS funny…I just do my laughing on the inside 🙂 We had a fellow last night that apparently ate the same “bad” Chinese food. Can someone please get me the name of that restaurant? I want to avoid it…
Farting noises will ALWAYS be funny! Boo hoo on them, “We’re not here to laugh” – lighten up! Laughter is good for the soul.
I’ve gone home from a couple yoga classes and immediately reported to my husband about the gal across the room who kept ripping ’em and how I almost burst out laughing! Good thing the room was dark b/c I was making giggley, smiley faces behind my head to knee pose.
Perhaps the farty yogi could have stepped out for a minute or the teacher could have used it as a teachable moment on yoga postures and digestion or yogic eating.
I can’t wait for Myers skit to come out about it. 🙂
Farting is funny!
