When I was in high school I had a desperate crush on a girl. I was afraid to
talk to her. I would be all: Hi Mary, how are ummmmmBLAAAAAAHHH.

Intercom: Cleanup on isle seven.

That would be. bad.

You could make kind of a joke about it, if you are good at improv comedy:
Hey no worries man, I have that effect on people. I had a weight loss
clinic, clients would eat a big meal, come in, take one look at me, blow
chunks, lose weight. 

It was great. We wanted one of those cutesy business names so popular today,
so we called it Scarf n Barf.

It was so successful, they made a movie. Siskel and Ebert said it was a
spew-jerker.

We went over budget though. Our ipecac bill was thru the roof.

We got this old western sheriff guy to play the role of me: Wyatt Urp.

Supporting actress was Cameron Retchardson.

The actors were great, and nobody had a bit of trouble memorizing their
lines. Somehow they all seemed to know them already.

The auditions were really gross, oh mercy.

We had this one guy named Chuck. He could never sit down. As soon as he did
and the director ordered "Up Chuck" the others thought it was a stage cue.
What a mess.

Some of the actors couldn't do it. We had to tell them: heave or leave.
