Where Euphemisms Come From


The other night, one of The Girls got sick (non-drinking related, in case anybody cares) outside my apartment and threw up in the parking lot. The next morning, we noticed it was all gone. There had been quite a lot of it but not a single trace to be found only a few hours later. Now, there are a whole bunch of ducks that live in my apartment complex and, disgusting as this sounds, the only logical explanation as to where it all went is that the ducks ate it.
Anyway, as a result, from now on getting sick and throwing up shall be referred to as "feeding the ducks".
FEEDING THE DUCKS
feed·ing thuh duhks
1. to eject the contents of the stomach through the mouth; vomit; regurgitate; throw up.
"Oh god, this sausage is spoiled. I think I'm going to feed the ducks."
