Dear PLS,
OK, here’s a problem for you. I accidentally tooted in class and everyone knows it was me. Now they’re calling me Miss Farts A Lot!

Your friend,
Miss You Know What

Dear Miss YKW,
Oh, dear. That’s not a nickname anyone would want. But the truth is that everyone passes gas because everyone digests food. Of course, we’d rather not do it in public, but it happens.

If you find yourself feeling gassy again, go to the bathroom or find an out-of-the-way spot. Our guess is that your nickname will eventually fade away. If someone teases you about it in the meantime, remind him or her that everybody toots!

Think Pink!
The PLS
