Related: About this forumMy dog threw up on the floor today.
After which he went back and ate it which seems disgusting to me personally. But then I realized that his condition imparted a deep philosophical lesson. The holy bible says, "As the dog returns to his own vomit, so does the fool to his own folly." I think that's Ecclesiastes or maybe it's Proverbs I don't know. But then I realized something even more disgusting. My dog may not only be an evangelical but he may be a Republican as well.

It is interesting sort of, that it is mainly when vomit is fully externalized that eating it is taboo.

(14,162 posts)I'd imagin it's an evolutionary response humans have picked up. If your body expels it there's a reason. Humans that re-ingested something the body rejected may not have survived as well as those who learned to fear it thus creating a natural revulsion to anything excretory.
And then there are the right wingers who keep returning to their own brain vomit. I definitely have a natural revulsion to their repetitive unhealthy mental state. Maybe they will devolve out of existance.
