Funny thing....until I was about 18 or so, if I saw, or heard, somebody throw up, it was all I could do, to not throw up myself. BUT, after holding 50 different friend's hair, out of the john, while they were refunding alcohol, broke me of my vomiting anxiety.

I have the strongest(or is it weakest?) gag reflex, of anybody I know. The doctor CAN'T use the tongue depressor on me, or I'll hurl. I can't express the INTENSE gagging I feel, when that stick touches me back there. Makes me want to hurl now, just thinking of it. I must be terrified of choking....

Love that term! I suppose familiarity does reduce your sensitivity to it, but I suppose that does depend on the person. I'd just leave the room and let them handle their own business transactions (j/k hehe).

I had that struggle too! Plumbed for weakest because my gag reflex probably couldn't surpress a fart in a windsock. My mum is the same when it comes to things in her mouth. She can only just cope with brushing her teeth without gagging.

Thank you, it's Seinfeldian in origin(when George's girlfriend was thought to be bulimic, and she was said to be "refunding"). Many of my references are Seinfeldian. After all, it is the greatest show of all time!

I'm okay with brushing my teeth, but if I try to brush my tongue, it's about the same as the tongue depressor.

Maybe I should try brushing my tongue with a tampon?

I only ever watched the show sparsely, so I know very little about the show. But I adore what the small guy (kind of overweight, was in Shallow Hal) had to say about life and how it should end in an orgasm (haha). That always amused me.

Okay.Eww! Thank you most kindly for THAT particular mental image lol.
