My dad's GF burps at the dinner table out loud on purpose.

Yeah what's a smelly breeze here and there

but things like the above. Arrgh!
Charming.
Yeah, that's kinda different.
We (bf and I) don't even remark on them (burps, farts, etc) when they happen, not because we're ashamed, but because it's not an interesting happening-
We're two twenty-somethings, not five year olds.
Now I'm thinking of something I read where in several cultures if you're served a meal as a guest you're expected to burp as a sign of appreciation of their meal.
Dunno if there are places where you're expected to break wind, though.
