At last! The holy grail of panvocalic phrases, in full retrovocalic glory!

Right there under our noses all this time!
I have to say that I'm utterly amazed by your panvocalic efforts, mollusque. It has changed the way I look at words. (Thanks to you, Wordie probably represents the most complete and organized collection of panvocalics in existence.)

Mollusque, I join you in your joy. This is delightful.
Also, many years ago, thanks to this substance and a great deal of water (I followed the instructions), I had one of the best vomits ever.

What? It made me feel better, and it didn't hurt at all. Isn't that great? Isn't that what one wants from a vomit?

Oh, that. If you were a guy best vomit would be judged on distance travelled, trajectory over the neighbour's fence, maximum area covered, etc.

The only thing that I want from vomit is to be left alone. And far away.

mollusque commented on the word syrup of ipecac
I knew you guys would appreciate it. But, somehow retrovocalic has taken on another connotation...

Indeed, knowing that each and every day has the potential to be the day on which one achieves one's best vomit ever -- there's a strange comfort in that.
