Senses: Noun#2: Medicine that causes vomiting; an emetic. Verb#2: To be disgusted; to sicken.

Are those regional meanings, or something? --Connel MacKenzie T C 23:11, 3 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Dunno about the noun sense, but the verb seems to be OK. "You disgust me. You make me puke."
That seems more like a figurative use of the literal sense rather than a sense apart, as in "you disgust me to the point of vomiting." - TheDaveRoss 16:34, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Will delete disputed sense. Andrew massyn 19:41, 11 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The synonyms section seems to be attracting some weirdness. --Connel MacKenzie T C 23:10, 3 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've heard most of them --Enginear 10:15, 13 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Moved all the red links. Now it's Wikisaurus:vomit (regurgitate) (and many others) to clean. DAVilla 15:10, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

But you left them redlinked? That's pretty useless. --Connel MacKenzie 15:59, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
