Oh man, that was a miss if I'd ever heard of one. I don't know if you'd heard
about, but the Ghoul PC we had in the party was using chemistry to temporarily
off-set his bad body odor. The problem was, when the drug wore off, he had to
take a dump, -REALLY- bad. Caused more than one moment of comic humor there
for a while...

I recall once, when I was feeling evil and bad and stuff, I gave one of
my characters a raging case of the trots. It was really rather amusing,
considering how he had to run to the bathroom every five minutes, then
try to stock up on anti-diaherrials (yes, I butchered that spelling)
without his teammates noticing...Seeing as he was a rigger, he couldn't
get much done until that attack passed, and he STILL had a
rather...unpleasant case of gas afterward.

Last night during a spur of the moment weeknight game ... my character got
incredibly scared ... downed half a bottle of Tequila (and got the worm) ...
proceeded to be scared and the like ... became depressed and was going to
destroy his rigger remote control deck ... began belching ... got knocked out
("Look! Elvis ...") ... and then proceeded to fart really badly ... the rest
of the guys (pcs) were contempated the usage of a cork ... I even got so bad
that I thought that one of the male pcs in the group was a whore, err, woman
...
