Vomitous. An overwhelming desire to bring up a hot meal; some references include the idea of premeditated hurling as portrayed by Linda Blair in The Exorcist. May be used literally, "Sorry to cut ahead on the bathroom line but I'm feeling rather vomitous after that thirteenth Boiler Maker." Or figuratively, "Sorry to cut ahead on the bathroom line but I'm feeling rather vomitous after having to listen to those two TWIt-heads at the back of the line yammer on about how some class literally changed their lives. I think thirteen Boiler Makers would do the same thing – and for a lot less money and time."
Cool idea for a thread, NotMatilda - what a fun idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Used in the morning when one awakes with scratchy, itchy eyes, due to lack of sleep. "I'm feeling scritchy this morning," loosely translated means, "look at me, touch me, or talk to me, before I've had my coffee, and I'm not responsible for the damage to your overall emotional or physical well-being."
The process by which one dog barking can sequentially alert the other dogs in the neighborhood, so that in a matter of minutes every dog in the neighborhood is barking also.
"While we were on our evening walk, Sophie barked at a cat and started a Rovalert."

Maybe that belongs on "Silly things kids say".
