History Main / ProneToVomiting

* Recurring ''Series/MadTV'' character Trina Moss, played by Mo Collins, almost always gets emotionally overwhelmed toward the end of her sketches--which prompts her to vomit.

[[folder:Web Comics]]

This trope is usually played for laughs. You might say it puts the "gag" in RunningGag. It might also be a way to portray a character as gross (as in, "Eww, I have to sit on the bus next to the kid who barfs a lot!"). It's also inexplicably associated with {{nerd}}s and with neurotic people (while [[StressVomit nervousness can cause vomiting]], many of these characters vomit for unrelated reasons and just happen to have a nervy personality). If a character Prone to Vomiting is a nerd ''and'' neurotic, you get a SicklyNeuroticGeek.

* ''Anime/DFrag'': Shinsen, the ButtMonkey of the previous Student Council, has an infamously weak stomach and will throw up at almost anything, such as watching her ChildhoodFriend twirl her hair around her head or being spun around inside a robot. For this reason, she has been nicknamed "Barfie".

* Some animals (like bees, cows, owls, and to a lesser extent cats) need to regurgitate their food (and other stuff they've swallowed) either as part of their digestive process or to get rid of indigestible things they've ingested.

* ''Literature/HarrowTheNinth'': The events of [[Literature/GideonTheNinth the previous book]] destroys Harrowhark's psyche to the point that she [[StressVomit vomits]] all the time at the beginning of the story.

* Completely averted with horses, who have no ability to vomit, which can be life-threatening if they've ingested something they shouldn't have.
