Haha! You Trumped!

After returning home from a nice dinner at a Mexican Restaurant in St. Paul, "El Burrito Mercado," I inadvertently, and rather noisily, released some gas while sitting in the living room. My wife said, "Haha! You Trumped!" Couples who have been married for many years, have a strange, earthy sense of humor, it seems.

I laughed bigly, because I found her neologism very apt. I plan to use it whenever I have an opportunity.

"Trump" is, in fact, slang in northern England for what you did. The Velveteen Ocelot Mar 2019 #1

And it appears that Trump himself has been recorded trumping.



It's especially appropriate that Mexican food can be the cause of a large trump.
