Jazz is a spiritual genre.
Don't "try" to get into it, or else it'll feel like work.
Check out a few tunes and take note of how they speak to you, and go from there.

jazz literally sounds like people farting into trumpets

Listen to a bunch of random songs by the obvious ones.

Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Fats Waller, Benny Goodman, Django Reinhardt, Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Adelaide Hall, Charlie Parker, Thelonious Monk, John Coltrane, Dave Brubeck, Wes Montgomery, Joe Pass, Dizzy Gillespie, Charles Mingus, Miles Davis, Chick Corea, John McLaughlin etc.

Try to listen to all them quite a bit, they all have vastly different styles and it may take you a number of good listens before you appreciate something. Listening is everything, try to really hear what each instrument is playing throughout the song. Jazz loves to use multiple melodic lines which can be overwhelming to more casual music lovers who are used to more straightfoward progressions.

Listen to this until it really clicks, then start listening to Herbie Hancock.
