== Anime and Manga ==
* Used in ''[[Dragon Ball Z]]''. Gohan punches Cell in the stomach so hard that Cell literally vomits Android 18 out of his body. In the original Master Roshi vomits out the window offscreen when he finds out that he was watching a man undress through his spy camera.
Line 69 ⟶ 68:
* ''The Royal'': Subverted in this British period medical [[Dramedy]]. Aman in a suit is inspecting the hospital he stops to ask the nurse about the patient at hand. Pan to the patient, who throws up in a discretion shot. Pan back over to the man in the suit, standing stock still with vomit all over his top, several feet away from the patient. The nurse then notes how projectile vomiting is one of the symptoms of the illness.
* On ''[[You Can't Do That on Television]]'', Barth's Diner usually has the kids puking into buckets provided by Barth himself over a wall. Vomit Line: "What do you think's ''in'' the burger?"
* Parodied on ''[[The Colbert Report]]'' when Stephen, who has just [[Written in-In Infirmity|broken his wrist]], sees a clip of ''[[The Departed]]'' in which a man's wrist cast is smashed with a hammer. Cut back to the desk where Stephen is throwing up into a vase he's holding behind his desk, his face hidden by the flowers; when he puts the vase down we see that it is a. transparent and b. completely vomit-free.
* ''[[The Suite Life of Zack and Cody|The Suite Life on Deck]]'': Something of a [[Running Gag]]. To wit:
** In the episode "The Wrong Stuff," Woody's off-screen projectile vomiting is implied to be quite profuse when Cody holds up an umbrella at the edge of the frame to protect himself and London, having to reposition the device several times.
Line 84 ⟶ 83:
* An episode of ''[[Good Luck Charlie]]'' has Charlie get sick off bad fishsticks as Teddy uses her in a book report presentation to her class. Teddy's best friend likewise gets sick. The former is offscreen, but the latter is onscreen, just using a handy container to vomit into. This triggers a [[Vomit Chain Reaction|chain reaction]] of ''everybody in the class'' barfing into their backpack, hat, hood, etc.
* The ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]'' episode "The Body" straddles the line. Buffy throws up shortly after {{spoiler|finding her mother's dead body}}, ducking out of camera range, but then she puts a paper towel over it and we get a quite disgusting close-up of the vomit being absorbed.
* ''[[Waterloo Road]]'': Lindsay James (played by Jenna Louise Coleman) arrives for her first day after transferring from another school. As she enters the school she rushes intooff theto toiletsbe andsick throwsin upthe toilets - the vomit isn't actually visible but the sound effects are very realistic.
* ''Zoey 101'': Disc Golf, at the first scene the kids are jogging laps, and one girl, Nicole, comes back on camera after throwing up. Zoey puts her finger on Nicole's shirt saying she spilled oatmeal on it, but Nicole responded by saying that it wasn't oatmeal, it was vomit. That joke is used two more times in that episode. Though the mess on Nicole's outfit would kinda count as a Vomit Indiscretion Shot.
* ''[[Angel]]'': Angel does this once, while {{spoiler|[[Brought Down to Normal|temporarily human]]}}. He throws up off-camera at the sight/smell of {{spoiler|a demon's gory victim, then explains to Doyle: "It's the blood."}}
* On ''[[Heroes]]'', Mohinder staggers outside and doubles over puking, partially obscured by the front of his car, when he discovers the mutilated corpse of {{spoiler|Dale, after Sylar kills her and steals her Super Hearing}}.
* ''[[MASHM*A*S*H (television)|M*A*S*H]]'': "Welcome To Korea," has Hawkeye, B.J. and Radar and a group of U.S. soldiers attacked by enemy fire. Hawkeye is doing what he can, but when B.J. turns a dead soldier over and sees his front, he does the Technicolor yawn. A judicious camera angle keeps us from seeing anything coming out.
* ''Eretz Nehederet'': A running gag on the sixth season, there was a series of skits titled ‘Mai’s Blog’, consisting almost entirely of the vain teenage girl Mai’s vlog entries, featuring two of her close friends. A running gag in those skits would include Mai mocking one of said friends for being allegedly fat (she ''is'' played by a grown man, but he certainly isn’t fat; Mai is played by a grown woman with a waist slimmer than his), followed by said friend saying, ‘Excuse me for a sec,’ and vomiting aloud into a paper bag.
: This was eventually turned [[Up to Eleven]] on the last episode of the season and the final skit in the series, when Mai had to see her much dreamed of prom [[Humiliation Conga|dwindling in front of her eyes]] (she lost the title of prom queen to her worst enemy, said worst enemy got together with the boy she was into, and her own mother [[A Man Is Not a Virgin|took a very unpopular boy’s virginity]]). When vomit-girl asked her how she felt, Mai went overboard and said something to the effect of, ‘Just imagine all the hamburgers, all the pizzas, all the shawarmas and ''lafot'' you’ve ever gobbled down just came up against you!’ The result? A huge amount of vomit just gooshing out and utterly destroying her prom dress.
Line 103 ⟶ 102:
* In the remake of ''[[Resident Evil 1]]'', the player character vomits in the toilet after being attacked by the zombie in the bathtub.
* ''[[Dungeon Keeper]] 2'': One of the cutscenes has a bile demon turning away from the camera to vomit after a fairy constantly flies around him.
* Persona4[[Persona 4]]; During the camping trip after a brief action of stupidity by Yosuke, the Protagonist, and Kanji, they were knocked into the river. It may not seem so bad to them, but then you hear Morooka puking further upstream. Hits it even further home by adding this: "You feel as though a million showers will never get you clean..."
** [[Vomiting Cop|Adachi's]] introduction has him running off-screen to throw up, followed by sound effects. {{spoiler|Possible subversion as he may have been faking it.}}
* In ''[[Fahrenheit (2005 video game)|Fahrenheit]]'': Lucas Cane vomits in a toilet, in the bathroom of a bank.
* ''[[Grand Theft Auto V]]'' with its online mode makes it so the protagonist can wake up vomiting in the toilet of their motorcycle club house, night club and various other places after getting too drunk and passing out.
* In ''[[Detroit: Become Human]]'', Connor helps a drunken and passed out Hank get to the bathroom to throw up in the toilet in the chapter "Russian Roulette". Downplayed in that it's possible to get a very brief glimpse of Hank vomiting as Connor leaves the bathroom.

Line 122 ⟶ 124:
* Maggie Nettles strikes again folks! She made a [http://www.furaffinity.net/view/5200030/ surprise picture] for the editor in [[Fur Affinity]] about Bomberman vomiting!

At first, she thought the kiss was part of another bad dream; Irwin tells her otherwise. Both this and his subsequent line "I...am the god...of love!" cause Mandy to feel ''very'' nauseous.
