I just realized that I can both make myself sneeze and make myself vomit. If I can do this simultaneously, I could spray partially-aerosolized stomach acid when I feel threatened.
You're gonna hurt yourself that way more than anyone else, but yeah, I'm not fucking with anyone who does that. It begs the question of how deep the rabbit hole of crazy goes, and I'll pass on finding out. Nope.
Out-crazy the crazy does seem to be an effective strategy. Your sinuses are NOT going to be happy with you though.
On that note, if you've ever puked and got any of that acid up your nose, you know how absolutely horrible that feels: you'll be pleased to know that you can almost completely block it from happening if you simply pinch your nose shut as the puke comes streaming out. By capping off the pressure at your nostrils, no fluid, be it air, snot, or stomach acid, will be able to travel from your oropharynx to your nasopharynx -- you basically wall off the blue zone:
Downside being that you gotta actually remember this trick as your guts are about to spill, which isn't really a great time to call back on little lifehacks from the internet. If you happen to recall it in the stages leading up to go-time though, you're golden.
Also be careful not to gasp for air between streams of vomit, or you might inhale some. You don't want stomach acid in your air way! Controlled, slow breaths.
I literally cannot avoid vomiting through my nose (and mouth obviously) on the rare occasion it needs to happen. Because of this, I've been one of those people who fights it back for my entire life. I've never felt better after it, I always feel significantly worse. It's a loud, violent, terrible ordeal, and I'm a little jealous of the folks who can do it with ease.
I've read about the nose pinch. I need to try it. Because, unfortunately, it ain't just stomach acid that ends up there. Really not great.
Same boat. You'll still get a few drops up there, but it'll be tolerable discomfort that you'll be able to snort out over the minutes following eruption.
Try to start thinking of this trick as soon as you start feeling nauseous. GL!
Oh I'm on the others side, it's incredibly easy for me to hurl. Had a lot of practice since I was a kid. Usually none comes out of my nose, but if it's one of those rare cases where it's because I'm being sick and vomiting continuously, stomach just chain-camping, then it could get up my nose.
But like 99% of the times it's as easy for me as blowing my nose. Often doesn't even really make my teeth matte, as it's usually just one simple GLYYYYAAARRGGHH and it's done.
Also on a related note, if you're trying to prevent yourself from vomiting, one trick is to put your thumb inside your fist and squeeze. As in make a fist with your thumb in the middle. One hand. Supposed to suppress the gag reflex and thus buys you time to get to the loo or whatever. I'm not 100% it works but maybe?
Many years ago, I realized that if I take a Vitamin B12 pill, well almost exactly 23 minutes later, I'll get like all the reflexes simultaneously.
Burp, puke, hiccup, fart, sneeze (am I missing any?)
All at once, simultaneously. The sensations would only last about 20 seconds, but those are 20 seconds of things I'd rather not experience, so I no longer take Vitamin B12...
I took up vaping about 15 years ago. Like flipping a switch. Anecdotally, the health benefits over cigarettes are incredible and immediate. Also cheaper by far.
The European roller chick will vomit a foul-smelling orange liquid onto itself to deter a predator. The smell also warns the parents on their return to the nest.

I'm not going to do it; I just realized that I could do it.
Unlike some people around here, I have a little bit of self-control.
Being able to decide when go puke and when not to sounds like you have a lot of self-control (much more than usual)
Don't get me wrong, I still puke when I don't want to occasionally. But I have the added benefit of also doing it when I want.
I cannot decrease the amount of vomit in my life; only increase.
wait, that's not normal?
it seems like a skill you would need to practice mr turkey vulture
That's Mr. Mr. Turkey Vulture, thank you.
You could do it? Prove it. I dare you.
I'm practicing
Perhaps their genome allows them to do so without any harm. OP needs to try and see.
I plan on it
Ok, Dragonborn.
Oh, hello rabbit hole!

Yeah I know
now this is the kind of quality posting I come to lemmy for
Me too
Evolution happening right before our eyes. In a few generations ops offsprings will be well trained stomach acid fighters.
Well trained? Not good enough. They'll be naturally gifted or else
You're well on your way to becoming a llama!
Once you sneeze vomit through your nose you will realize that you have fucked up.
Just need to train yourself with sinus-expanding powder.
It's like these people don't even know or something
To fuck someone up, you have to be ready to get fucked yourself.
At least it'll clear out their sinuses.
Odd that you would say that.

Cough. Queef. Exploding boil.
Coughing is unfortunately semi-regular for me, I'm a smoker (don't smoke kids, also don't smoke, kids).
I don't have the organs to queef, unless that boil explodes...

What you smoke these days? Winstons for me. Golds. NOT Selects - "select" is a secret codeword that means "garbage"
No offense if that's your brand.
I have a preferred brand. But let us not promote this bad habit please..
Fair enough. I agree, I was just curious.
Interesting and noted for my future endeavors

Congratulations on your new Dilphosaurus tag!
First of all, thanks for all the cool computer tricks when I was in highschool.
Secondly, sneez-its in your face and runs away screaming
Aaaaaahhhhhhh it smells awful!!!!
(from far away) sorrrrryyyyyy
dies
IT WASN'T SUPPOSED TO BE THIS WAY 😭 WHY?! WHYYY??? I JUST WANTED TO FEEL SAFE WAHHHH
I cast Aura of Endless Sneezing and Puking
I cast awareness of butthole hair
Reminds me of the end of this video: https://youtube.com/watch?v=gAQSicsoEu0
This is exactly what I was referencing :)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_roller?wprov=sfla1
Took me a moment to realize this wasn't a satirical approach towards ladies on rollerblades
me too, I was like, damn this guy had a really bad date at the roller rink
I also got excited about roller derby women until I realized what I was reading. And then I got really excited.
how do ya make yourself sneeze?
I just think I need to sneeze and I do it. Not instant, but it usually happens within a few seconds.
You should send an email to the slow-mo guys and offer to show their cameras
Ah that's a good idea actually
threatens you
🤧
You could train the Absolute Batman version of Bruce Wayne to do this, because he had to use tools to achieve a similar effect.
Its got a wonderful defence mechanism, you don't dare kill it.
Ok. Now start designing an online course you can sell to self defence enthusiasts for $300. Do not waste this opportunity!
"And if you bring a friend I'll give you 15% cash back. YOU'RE MAKING MONEY TO TAKE THIS CLASS"
Joke's on you, I'm into that.
Who doesn't like sneezing?
If you did this onto your steak, you could digest it before needing to chew it, allowing you to make and eat well done steaks of UK beef.
There's an idea! Eat like a spider.
If you also learn voluntary sharting you can make multi directional attack.
Now that would surprise Pikachu.
Ooooooooo.... Multi-directional biohazard. It's gonna be a busy weekend
