                    It reminds me a little of the Isuzu Impulse I owned around that time, it had a similar fancy dashboard

                          It would be nice to imagine the vomit force being due to a rifling action of the neck, but alas, it's just boring ol' gravity.

                            As someone who, presumably, has never had someone literally vomit into your (unmasked) face*, you have no standing to comment in this thread, @Horace.
