You’ve got to love the English language.

Here is a word I admire so much, I’ve named this blog in its honor. I am particularly fond of “an automatic instinctive unlearned reaction to a stimulus” as an apt descriptor for these posts.

eructation – a reflex that expels gas noisily from the stomach through the mouth

belch, burp, burping, belching

ejection, forcing out, expulsion, projection – the act of expelling or projecting or ejecting

inborn reflex, innate reflex, instinctive reflex, physiological reaction, reflex, reflex action, reflex response, unconditioned reflex – an automatic instinctive unlearned reaction to a stimulus
