Looking like a very british comic.

You'd be amused to hear that "fart" in most Scandinavian languages means speed/movement/travel

So we have fartpilot, overfart, fartbump, fartkontrol etc

This is not a thing I ever wanted to think about

Make it so, Number Two!

After the Burn, captains did what they had to do.

- "It's simply impossible to go beyond fart factor 10."
- "Eject the fart core!! (rip)"
- "I'll execute you just like Tuvix if you ever change the type of beans in my coffee specification again!!"
- "We monitor for species that are on the verge of achieving the fart-drive technology."
- "Bean me up, Scotty."
- "The fart field extends around the ship traveling through fart-warped space, it's like hot-boxing or Dutch ovenning."
- "Foton torpedo, target their starboard fart-box, on my mark!"
- "Warning! Incoming fart signatures!!"
- "Do not reverse the polarity on the engine drive or we will all instantly get pink eye!!"
- "Who put hot-sauce on the Difarthium crystals?? The ship can't take the extra boost!!"
- "Wesley, go clean the warp anuses!"

So... which one of you is going to ask Randall Munroe if this is plausible or not? Disregarding the the obvious frozen-butt problem, of course.

"Fart" in norwegian means speed so checks out

Fart in Swedish means...

Number one.

Give it the beans.

This is delightfully silly and exactly what I needed given the way my day has gone.

They could still refer to it as the ass-end of the ship

You might be interested in a little movie called Thunderpants!

It's exactly what you think it is, and surprisingly good!

technically one could simulate this on a holodeck.

Entering trumpspace

This is just star trek that happnes in the universe of the hit 2002 movie Thunderpants.

The reality where human technology developed around harnessing the power of farts is a strange one. Still better than ours, though.

@Little8Lost This technically counts as green energy. Or is it brown energy?

I love how the artist matched the skin tones of face and butts between the first two cells.

Space, the final frontier, to boldly go where no fart has gone before...

Why isn't this loss
