Spew Note
FOUND by Mani
in Auckland University, New Zealand
We found this outside the student union cafe. I guess Kate cleaned it up for him.

We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
» The BBC's Jamillah Knowles mixes it up with the FOUND crew after a show in London (starts 1/3 of the way through)!
» We're hopping on a plane and jetting to Europe for our Fall 2008 Euro Tour!
Yeah OLSEN ! Geeeze!
( I think Olsen was lucky that Kate was there that time.)
That's true friendship.
Spew? Is that like Kate and Olsen share computer space, and he was up first to read a funny Find of the Day just as he was sipping his morning coffee, and Kate ends up wiping up the mist?
I hate when that happens.
does anyone see the intresting coincidence, Olsen and kate. Like the Olsen twins. MaryKate and Ashley Olsen? Hmmm... and "kate" had to clean up the other "olsen's" spew. I really don't remember which one had the eating disorder but this was my first thought.
I guess it COULD mean vomit... but generally, you don't write a passive-agressive note to someone who's sick (unless they've been drinking too much, maybe).
No, I think this was a much more... /intimate/ bodily substance.
Ew, Sara, "outside the student union cafe"? Boy, when I attended the University of Oregon, all we could do in the EMU was eat and have food fights. I guess kids these days will just do it anywhere. :-)
Oy, mate! We need a Kiwi to give us a proper definition of "spew."
Kiwi here! yep spew is vomit. yuk. and I don't think its that funny a coincidence, Kate is a very common name in NZ especially for that age group (uni students). Olsen is most likely a last name used as a nickname. Typical students getting drunk and not cleaning up after themselves.
oh, and Holly Golightly I should add that Find of the day usually appears 5-6ish pm NZ time...I suppose they still could check it in the morning though
Thanks, Lauren. That would be "barf" here in the States. Glad we cleared that up! :-)
Oh, Lauren, I'm glad you pointed that out. I never realized that The Find of the Day appears at different hours in different regions. I just never thought about it. In Central time zone in the US, we see the new Find of the Day at midnight.
If I were Kate in the note, I wouldn't be placing kiss xxx's if I had to clean up someone's puke.
i know that i hate it when the olsen twins attend my soirées and don't clean up their own throw up.
"Dude, if you're going to spew, spew in this..." <- spew used in a very American sentence.
Ahhh Midlife Crisis. I remember foodfights in the EMU ... in the Fishbowl to be specific, home of the most famous food fight ever, a la Animal House.
Holly go lightly. It is different times in different places. Midnight in the Found guys time zone, is different times in other places. Cuz of the sun, and the revolving of the earth, you know??
Cleaning up someone else's spew? that is friendship.
geez.....which Olsen do you think spewed? Mary Kate or Ashley......
I have been known to have a weak stomach. There have been times I have puked in public or in the company of friends. I can relate here. It's embarassing. Sometimes I just don't own up to it. Sometimes people get mad at you because they have to clean it up when it's in a bar and that's their job. Next time this dude should aim for Kate.
You know it was those "put a finger down your throat" Olsen twins. Spew is american. What yall think yall cornered the market on vomit slang? Spew, blow chunks, bark, spill, and puke. Care to add any? My son has a weak stomach, his name was Tucker and we call him Tucker Upchucker.
bark? I mean barf. Notice I'm hung over. Thank you.
She cleaned up his spew and then gave him 3 kisses. I hope Mani washed his hands after picking up this note.
When you get to that point of drunkeness, you need to have a trash can handy.
What do you wanna bet that this will *not* be the last time Kate takes care of Olsen's vomitile chunks?
Such a strange note to end with kisses.
spam protection: what's the opposite of bad. It won't let me say great, wonderful, awesome, tasty or killer.
hmmm I always thought X's were hugs and O's were kisses... XOXO!
Angel, I always thought the same thing.
The last time I had someone "spew" in my house, they cleaned it up themselves. Although, they threw away the bathroom rug that they got it on. Something about it being stained red. They said they would buy me another rug. Which, they never did.
Ewww! The comments are grosser than the find. God, do you really have to detail every synonym for vomit?
I feel a little queasy now...
the O's are hugs, cuz of the shape your arms make when you hug. And the kisses are X's, cuz of the sound. that's they way i always knew it to be.
XOXOXO
Ashleigh , I spewed once and in it there was a perfectly intact Capn' Crunch.
Oh Angel, that's funny! Mona is right about the X's and the O's. But paradise is paradise whether one has kiss & hug dyslexia or not.LOL(L's are sitting down and that means sit-hug-sit)
LOXLOXLOXXX
Question is.....did Kate hold Olsen's hair back while (s)he spewed? Not only do real friends clean up after you but they hold your hair back too.
Is it bad that I thought of S.P.E.W from Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire? ....yeah, it's bad.
i read it as xoxo, but now that there are no o's...i'm thinking spew isn't puke.
I believe the X is suppose to be two lips meeting in the middle. Each side of the X representing a face. I dunno. That's what wikipedia is for.
I thought it was how lips looked when puckered for a kiss. Although an astericks may be more accurate. No wait...I'm thinking of a Kurt Vonnegut illustration. Never mind.
I prefer to "chunder." Colin James Hay is the one to thank for that!
Nightingale: "Breakfast of Champions." I read it in my salad-tossing days. Heh-heh.
Beavis, I thought you finished reading that last night. heh-heh. heh-heh.
Wow I have a totally different visual of the X's & O's!
X = arms crossing for the hug!
O = the shape of the lips during a kiss!
As long as I get a few X's & O's occaissionally I'm a happy girl!
Wow! I haven't laughed this hard since the Fart find some times ago. I love bodily function and that shows my low IQ!
"Spew" goes right back to the middle ages, probably from Ancient Anglo Saxon. Along with "to cat" which is Elizabethan for vomit (Shakespeare uses the word). I've always liked "yawn in technicolour" or "pray to the god of the porcelain fixture" who as we all know is named Ralph and he drives a Buuuuuick!
Basil -- I thought his name was Huuuughie!
Never heard of 'to cat' which is certainly quaint. My Oxford Dictionary of Slang dates it to 1785 ('prob. from "to shoot the cat" '), so you must know a Shakespeare quote that they don't!
The big old OED has 'to jerk, shoot or whip the cat' but no date. (Jerk the cat, eh? Ouch! Meow!)
The late and very wonderful Kenny Everett had 'calling God on the great white telephone'.
How did she know the "spew" came from Olson?
Was he passed out next to it? That's the only way to know for sure "who spewed"
Yup I thought of the Olsen twins right off the get go.
