Default If a tree burps in the forest....

If you burp out loud and you're all by yourself, do you say "excuse me" anyway?

I have NEVAH burped out loud I'll have you know.......that would be incredibly rude and soooo unladylike.

I can hear everyones eyes rolling in their heads!! Yes, I have burped out loud when alone but usually don't say anything unless it's to one of the cats....and they don't care one way or the other. They're butt-sniffers so I don't think they can be offended.

Now...if I were to do it in front of one of my boys that would be something they'd never let me forget or live down!!

Heck no. I might say "oh that was a good one", though.

I didn't know I was supposed to say "excuse me." Now, when my wife elbows me in the stomach after a particularly satisfying belch, I'll say sorry, but I don't mean it. When I'm alone? I might mutter an aaahhh...

Well, no. That would be just silly.

But I still can't decide if I should cover my mouth when I'm alone and sneeze.
