Somewhere, I read a blog post about how unrealistic was the trope of characters throwing up while under mental stress. The writer pointed out that people rarely do that in real life, or rather, it’s a very specific reaction to stress. People don’t stress-puke generically.
I would like to post the link for some of my college freshmen, but now I can’t find it. Does the description ring a bell for anyone?
thank you for what’s been a pet peeve of mine for a while: characters puking when the going gets tough. That just doesn’t happen half as often as fiction would have it.
