Eating beans in the space is always a bad idea :) Your text is so creative and the last sentence is so funny. I wish you all the best in your contest. Best regards.

    Thanks for you wonderful review. I'm not sure that beans are on the menu for astronauts, but if they are, maybe they are supplied with Gas-X as well.

This speaks about space; like everything, space also has its own set of problems; beans and bubbles of gas mutually reciprocal; you had a Mexican meal on dinner, even then farting takes place in the space; well said, well done; post god speed more; positively encouraging editing, negatively not wording, forgiving errors of theist-good authors-writers.

    Thanks for the exceptional review and comments. I would imagine that even in space you need to watch what you eat.

This was a cute and funny (and kind of gross) story in 50 words. I was feeling a little worried when your character said he had eaten beans. LOL. Thanks for sharing.

    Thanks for reading and reviewing this story. It's hard to say much in 50 words, but it's fun to try.

This piece is perfectly titled. The introduction and build up is succinct, with great imagery, and the ending is humorous. I wish you the best in the contest.

This made my day: I needed a good laugh, and this gave it to me. Your mind works in a mysterious and entertaining way. I really enjoyed the poem. Should do well in the contest.

Oh my goodness, you're hilarious. Very creative story about flatulence. Modern. Funny. Completely entertaining. But let's keep it as escapism. Nice work :)

The menu adviser should be sacked! Re-fried beans are notorious for inducing gas. Maybe they were hoping to save on rocket fuel and your suit should have been hooked up to the space ship's fuel system. I hope you weren't gassed to death.

This is an entertaining piece and the reader can clearly empathise with the fart dilemma. The story is very clearly supported by the image. Good luck for the contest.

    Thanks so much for the great review. There are some places that passing gas just isn't in the best interest of anyone- weddings, funerals and space suits.
