Ok, someone goes to the bathroom, it's rather smelly afterwards..., then they ask "Does anyone have a match?". I don't know if there is something obvious I'm not getting about this but what is the point of lighting a match in this scenario? Is the sulfer smell supposed to kill off the other foul oder? Does it relate to the starting your farts on fire joke? Could someone please explain this?
I hope this doesn't offend anyone lol, but this is a serious question.

The sulfur smell of the burnt match will mask any odors. Here in the south, when someone has hit a skunk on the road, some people keep a small pack of matches in their car to kill the odor.
I haven't heard of the match thing being used in a bathroom before. Sounds like that could be a bit dangerous though because of a possible methane buildup... LOL

If someone asked this while in the bathroom, they were probably a little self conscious and trying to make a joke about it. Yes, the sulfur smell will take some of the odor away but if it's bad, you will have to light a lot and blow them out.

Sorry... the first thing that came to mind is : Yes I have a match... my A$S and the neighbors face!!! LOL
now back to your question... I don't know how it does it, but the matches do leave the smell more tolerable.
I would certainly be afraid to have too many farts in a confined room and one big giant blue flame erupt and kill everyone off!
Too scary!!

Well. Sulfer is such a strong odor, it covers up most other smells. So, would you rather smell sulfer or ****? Exactly, so light a match.
