A while back when I was playing Rollercoaster Tycoon, I got inspired by the roller coaster name "The Vomit Comet" to try to come up with my own euphemisms for throwing up, to name some of my custom-built high-intensity rollercoasters.
This thread is for you to share any euphemisms you know, plus to invent your own. Here are my original contributions!
I suppose some of these might be called dysphemisms. Any way you look at it, they all mean the same thing.
I think I'm going to:
- feed the dog (at "dog," bend over to the side and groan out da then look at what you did for a moment, then say, "here boy!" and whistle)
- unpack my snack
- unmunch my lunch
- serve my milkshake
- empty my blender
- make air pizza
And made up on the spot in this post:
- spill my pills (after taking vitamins or something)
- give the chef a rebate
- empirically prove that what goes down, sometimes comes up
Maybe I'll fire up RCT and try to find some more old names I made up so I can post them here.
