Seven types of fart

A bit of social history. My late father-in-law and his brothers used to have a list of flatulence categories and it seems to date from the 1930s/40s if not earlier - I wonder if anyone has heard of these elsewhere, or anything similar?

Here they are, in ascending order of noise and destructive power:

  1. The Fizz
  2. The Fuzz
  3. The Fizzy Fuzz
  4. The Poop
  5. The Anti-Poop
  6. The Tear-arse
  7. The Rattler
