      I too have puke buckets. they are prepped with trash bags though.

      puke in bag, bag in trash. fresh bag in.

      bonus for scented bags so you don’t have to smell your puke between dry heaves.

        Doc offices, urgent cares, etc have these little blue plastic bags with a cardboard collar around them, just big enough to go around the outside of your mouth. I call them yack sacks. Grab a few of these the next time you see a dispenser on the wall, keep them in your nightstand, glovebox, etc. They come in very handy.

      Where do you keep your dedicated puke bucket? Do you anticipate when you’re going to be sick and pull it out from storage before hand, or is there a spot under your sink for it?

        Any place a bucket can be kept where it’s likely to be within reach should suffice. The bucket doesn’t necessarily need to be dedicated for the purpose of the capturing, and subsequent immediate disposal of puke, since it will ostensibly get cleaned after each puke (but this depends upon the puker.)

        One may have the chance to preemptively stage the puke bucket if the signals of an inbound puke are such that prestaging becomes feasible.

        It is worth noting that even the most optimal placement of the puke bucket does not guarantee it’s purpose being adequately fulfilled, as the potentially suddenly violent nature of the puke may altogether prevent any use of the bucket at all.

        Hope that clears up some things!

        ~It should be noted that past successes of the puke bucket do not guarantee future performance.~

            Nope, but apparently I’m pretty good at it lol I definitely have an “informal” method of typing, but I’ve always been fairly good at emulating legalese.

              cool! i’ve always wanted to be able to write in legalese (that’s new term for that i learned today), but my all lowercase informal ass could never. it’s just not in my blood. maybe i’ll learn a thing or two from ya.

                Go for it! By all means. I just picked up on it as a kid listening to commercials that had some dude speaking the fine print really fast, and I guess it stuck, somehow. Never thought much of it, but occasionally getting accused of being an AI is pretty funny.
