gargalesthesia is the sensation caused by an anti-peristaltic movement of the esophagus, better known as the strong urge to vomit (barf). The first part of the word is somewhat onomatopoeic, whereas the second comes from the Latin �esthesia � meaning, sensation/feeling.

Gargalesthesia is the unrestrained hate to the smurfs. People who suffer gargalesthesia can�t bear any cartoons, movies, songs, objects, etc related to the smurfs.
The word was created in honor of the famous magician Gargamel, and the latin esthesia: capacity for sensation and feeling.
