I would never poot in public!

February 1, 2009 9:22 PM

What is the name of the Mad TV skit with the guy at the car rental counter(?) who goes to sit on a vinyl couch, which makes a farting noise, and everyone thinks the guy farted? He tries to repeat the noise while shouting out protestations like, "It was not me, it was the couch!" and, "I would never poot in public!" This was from early on in the show - maybe 1997 or so? Bonus points if you can find it online for viewing.

Best answer: it was season 2 - you're not imagining it.
i can't find it online though..

i'm pretty sure it was Orlando Jones.

Response by poster: Hmm, my husband just fired a synapse and said it wasn't Orlando Jones, it was Phil LaMarr. Ring anyone else's bells?

For some reason 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' and Larry David are coming to mind.

Response by poster: Wikipedia says it was episode 212: "At a rental car agency, a man (Orlando Jones) tries to prove he didn't pass wind."
