Please see explanation below... Explanation: How can someone "gas" with FLUIDS? I can only think of two bodily fluids (the third one would be blood, but I very much doubt that people use their own blood as a weapon): saliva and urine. What people usually do with those fluids, to put it in the most rough language and begging your pardon madam, is "echar/lanzar escupitajos" and "lanzar orina/orinar a/sobre", or even better, "mear a/sobre"... |

chunquear Explanation: Chunking The act of throwing water or other matter on inmates, medical personnel or correctional officers. http://www5.law.com/tx/today00/020700bc.htm When I used to work as a Correctional Officer III in Texas, the prisoners locked up in AdSeg (Administration Segregation), who had a grudge against an officer,would collect and mix together, in a jar, feces, urine, semen and spital. When the jar was pretty much full, they would shake the contents and "chunk" them at the officer. It was their way of getting back at that particular officer who they believed, in their twisted way, had "dissed" (disrespected) them. Sick, isn't it, but I saw it done many times. Never to me, though. I lucked out. We used to keep extra uniforms in the prison laundry for just that reason. The hispahics call it "chunquear" (pronunciaciation "chunkiar". Hope this helps. Bye |
