The claim that someone is spewing out a torrent of unfiltered, disorganized, and often emotionally charged text or speech without any coherent structure, fact-checking, or logical progression. Unlike the calculated obfuscation of "word salad," "word vomit" implies a loss of control—an impulsive, messy outpouring of thoughts that is exhausting to parse and futile to engage with. It's used to dismiss rants or overly long posts by framing them as an unpleasant, involuntary cognitive eruption.
Example: After a user posts twelve rapid-fire, paragraph-long comments full of typos, tangents, and raw anger, another user might say, "Clean up this word vomit card you just played and come back with a single, coherent sentence. I'm not sifting through this emotional landfill." It pathologizes the expression as a messy outburst rather than an argument.
