Barf!!!

[sunnygirl]

Ok, went to Catalina today with Erik's dad and stepmom. The water was very rough on the way there and back (5 to 7 foot swells). So on the trip back, we're sitting in our seats on the boat, and lo and behold, there are people ALL AROUND us, puking into bags. It was the funniest thing I've ever freaking seen. Just a bunch of people ralphing all around. I've never seen anything it before in my life ever. Then I thought to myself, what must it feel like, to be sitting on a boat holding a bag of your own puke? And I couldn't help it, I started laughing and laughing and laughing.

Then a crew member, who had been handing out barf bags left and right, came stumbling down our aisle towards the back of the boat with - wait for it - a garden hose. I lost it completely.

Good times.

Lost it as in you puked too? Kidding. That's gross! It's called Dramamine people!

[sunnygirl]

Lost it as in laughed my a$$ off. Like a lunatic. All I could think of was that scene in Goonies.

[Grumpy4]

Goonies Rule!!

And what about the Barf-o-Rama in Stand By Me?

The only way I'll go to Catalina is by riding in the front of the boat watching the horizon. Learned that from my daddy. Actually anywhere outside as long as I can focus on the horizon. But the front is the best. Just wear lots of layers to keep warm.

BEST THREAD EVER!!!

I think I would have totally been dying too. What a sadistic ******* I am. But hey, I mean, it's either laugh or be puking with them. I knid of prefer laughing, I don't know.

[sunnygirl]

I'm a bad person for sure, but it was funny as hell.

I have been one of those "ralphers", can't stand the ride on those slow boats to Catalina, guess that is why I haven't been back to the Island in many years.

[sunnygirl]

We were on the fast boat. And it was one rough ride.

[Where's Barbie?]

not bad just know funny when you see it, I don't think I could have held ... the laughter either

[sunnygirl]

To be fair, I tried not to laugh.

[Disneykat]

OMG that is funny!!!! I would have been laughing with you SG!!!! Either that or puking too!!!! and then you would have laughed at me....i was thinking more of Stand By Me with the Barf_O_Rama!!!! but with bags and no pies......

[PrincessY]

Guess you have never been on the inside of a green/puking face. Nothing feels worse than that - you want to die. Be glad you can laugh. Wish I could.

Not offended by your laughter - just feel SO bad for those on the boat.

[Grumpy4]

I would have puked too! But only from laughing so hard! Never been sea sick a day in my life!

[sunnygirl]

Be glad you can laugh. Wish I could.

Trust, if you had been there, you would have. It was effing funny.
