When you're at home and need to vomit, and have enough time to get to a suitable place, what do you choose?

a) Lavatory
b) Bathroom sink
c) Kitchen sink
d) Laundry sink
e) Bucket
f) Garden
g) Neighbour's garden
h) Other

I use the big laundry sink. Its ample size and convenient height make it much more comfortable than crouching over a toilet bowl.

But I realise this may be Australia-centric as many British homes don't have laundry sinks.

I don't have a plan. Haven't vomited since my college drinking days. 42 years ago! Wow... did not realise that until this thread.

Always the toilet.

I saw a poor lady vomit into her handbag on a packed London bus once.

Oh I totally forgotten, one time when I was in high school, I was suffering from both the first day of my period and a migraine at the same time, it was during class, I was feeling worse and worse, I wanted to excuse myself and was just waiting for the teacher to finish what he was saying so I had a natural opportunity to put my hand up to be excused, and I threw up in my school binder.

I had to go home that evening, peel the pages apart and wash them off as best I could so I could try to read what was written there and rewrite all the notes. That was kind of gross. Chunky.
