Disagreement/confusion over whether this strip referred to farts or ejaculation (I can't believe I am typing this in a computer lab)?
This is a kinda disconcerting thread.

I concur with the ejaculate assessment.  I was trying to think of a way of introducing the topic earlier yesterday but I kept scrapping my attempts lest I be the only one making that particular argument.  That and I couldn't figure out a plausible reason why Beef would call that a "stinker."

I'm still a new guy.  New guys don't need to be changing the subject from farts to spooge.

I vote farts.  Fart stink, thus "stinker".

I totally gotta come down on the side of gas-passage. I can't think of how you can possibly have arrived at ejaculate for this strip.

Is it too late to turn this thread into a poll?

Yeah. The thing about the "ejaculate theory" is that the volumes are basically right (for humans, anyway -- for alive stuffed animals, I neither know nor wish to enquire), but why the hell would anyone call an ejaculation "a stinker?" Is this a particularly heinous dietary problem? An STD?

This is not a sentence I thought I'd ever type, but: the fart theory just seems less disturbing to me.

while my stance firmly remains Pro Masturbatory, i must claim no prior knowledge to the usage of "stinker" to refer to mail ejaculatory discharge.

furthermore, in past contexts my faculties do recall the usage of "stinker" to refer to the gassy discharge of the bowels.

The correct volumes (via Harper's Index) are about right, but could Beef possibly have thought that average volume of ejaculate was 3/4 cup?  They are definitely talking about flatulance.

Er, not to cast aspersions on the other sex, but I know there are guys who radically overestimate the volume of their ejaculations. I'm not saying that any guy actually ejaculates that much, but I have known guys who certainly think they do (or could with enough, er, buildup).

Do guys really closely examine the amount of the popped-wad, though?  

I think the 3/4 of a cup estimate comes from porn, where the guys are like a damn bilge pump.  How do they do it?

It sounds like the confusion persists in reference to which body function is addressed.

I should point out that there are potential situations in which a certain amount of semen is produced during flatulence.

That is all.

I think the strip is about farts.
It is interesting to note that the volume of the average fart would be similar to the volume of the average ejaculate, assuming that Beef is correct on the volume of a "stinker".

I will now spend the next few hours of my employers time finding out the answer to this question.

for those too lazy to click

The average person appears to release between 500 and 2,000 milliliters of gas per day rectally," Levitt says, "with the average volume of what passes at once varying between 35 and 90 milliliters. The young man I was treating released an average of 5,520 milliliters per day, or 162 milliliters per event."


There were many other sites all saying roughly the same thing.
