Yeah, meaning that I’ve never thrown up in an Uber (go me).
“Boot” cannot possibly be regional!

Well I’m from Utica and I’ve never heard anyone use it.
We’ve come a long way in 4 years. Need a larger sympathy card section.

Boot was a very common term for vomiting in suburban Boston late 80s. We used to monitor boot DEFCON.

I assume that like Inuits and snow, Bostonians have like 50 different terms to describe throwing up.

Yes I’ve heard it a bit and I’m roughly in the area.
If somebody is about to throw up from a second story (or higher!) window, you’re supposed to yell “DAS BOOOOOOT!!!” as a warning to people below.
This is possibly a hyper-regional variation, i.e., only in my late 80s dorm.

Glanced at the News & Buzz stories and was afraid to click on the top one. Do I need to know? No, i don’t.
