- In internet slang, users may replace 屁 with the English letter 'P' or a similar sounding character to bypass automated censorship filters on social media platforms.
- Chinese has a mirrored phrase 关你屁事 which translates to 'none of your business'. While the phrases are nearly identical, the former expresses indifference and the latter expresses anger at intrusion.
