what would be a polite thing to do when i accidentally let out a loud smelly fart in a full elevator?

Throw your hands in the air and shout, "TA DA!", then await the applause!

If it was a silent fart just don't admit it was you, do what they do. If some one covers their nose you do the same. But, if it was loud, lol, and they know it was you, well it depends on how the people react. You could just stare at the elevator door so you cant see how they react and be the first one out when the door opens. If they laugh about it say sorry and you laugh with them. If they get mad immediately start breathing heavy and say your 'sorry' once and tell them you don't feel so good, if it smells real bad go to one knee and touch your forehead. Tell them you ate something that wasn't cooked right or was bad, and say 'sorry' once more, become the victim. After you get off ask them for the nearest restroom. When your in the restroom and you're by yourself then you can laugh about it.

I consider myself to be a very polite person so I will tell you what I do when this happens to me. Yes, it happens to me quite frequently because I am a chronic loud smelly elevator farter. One very polite thing to do is say," Oh, my. I can't believe I just did that to you unsuspecting innocent people. Please forgive me, I farted and I know it smells bad, but what do you want me to do, go back in time and take the stairs?" Another very polite thing to do in this instance is to say," I didn't do it, this lady here did" pointing to the nearest old lady I can find, and in a low voice I say," Let's face it, when you get old, you just don't care anymore." Last, but not least, and I find this to be very polite, I pretend I didn't hear or smell my fart and check my watch or make a quick phone call. If anyone calls me out ( which they Never do ), I'll admit guilt at that time and say," That's what I smell like on the inside." I hope this has been helpful.

You should blame someone else. People do not like to think that a beautiful woman could fart and it stink, blaming someone else will help people keep that theory intact and therefore have the world continue to make sense. An admission of guilt could cause cause the fabric of the universe to collapse. This would be rubbish! :D

Announce to the assembly of elevator passengers that you've been practising a particularly difficult Bach fugue. They'll understand.

Say Most sorry

Course I am a guy and we just don't say a word and get off at the next floor

Little joke there

She shoots and she scores :) , Ivana 1, rest of you 0 it goes with the World Cup madness, Croatia was so close yesterday :(

does this happen to you a lot? if so, i'm sorry for you lol. um the most polite thing to do would probably be to say "excuse me" but that would be admitting you did that. if you don't want to admitt to the crime look around with annoyance and hold your nose while saying "god that reeks! who did that?"

I'd just get naked and start jumping up and down. It would take everyones mind off the fart. That's just me, though.

Announce, "That was Brahms Concerto number 3 in B minor, accompanied by eau du rectum."

act like your shoe squeaked and hope the elevator opens at your floor before the aroma proves your guilt.
