Good question.

Can't wait to see the answer of that.

Is it weird I actually know the answer to that?

The first one is because we're used to how we sound to ourselves, but since we hear a version of our voice conducted through our own body in part, the version that's 100% airborne sounds different and that ticks us off.
#2 I've not heard a sound explanation for, but I could imagine the brain being like Well, that's out now. Better that way. for our own, but wants none to do with someone else's gases.

That's probably a question for someone more in tune with the human mind than the human body tbf. But yeah good question

You only like the smell of your own farts when you have your head really far up your ass

The bird did say, "feel comfortable asking me anything."

Because we hear our own voices through reverberation of the skull, and our farts are heavily mixed with our own body waste.

She's smug, that's why.

I said to ask me anything, but I never said I'd have the answers to every question.

You're pretty on point with the first one: Is not that we 'hate' it, is more a sense of discomfort that can turn into disgust or distress and makes us want to stop the source of those emotions, it's like knowing it's you but also refusing to accept it is you.

Now, as to why we like the smell of our own farts... Is not that we like it, is more that we just get used to it, and we learn to be okay with it.

Nonetheless, the easy answer for both questions is "Repetition makes you forget or tolerate things you normaly wouldn't".

I have to agree with your assessment for #1. For #2, there are certain chemicals in flatulence that can have beneficial (if smelly) benefits upon our body. One woman I know actually can stop a headache when she normally smells the gas her partner es, even though she does also find that rather disgusting. Of course, every person has a particular mix of these chemicals caused by the contents and gut flora of their intestines, and because one's particular mixture is one they're essentially constantly exposed to, they're used to that smell to some degree. So when you gas yourself, you're not disgusted by it because you're so used to it and thus you're oblivious to most if not all of it. This isn't true with other people's gas attacks because you haven't had the time or opportunity to develop that mental numbness against the smell and thus can the full ick of those chemicals... unless it's one that cures headaches or something.

Perhaps it's a form of subconscious reassurance. Like how when we get severely wounded, the survival instinct kicks in to do anything to survive. Fart smells could be similar so that the brain senses if it's off for internal damage or wrongs.
