There is nothing particularly special about the Vomit Comit. It is a standard commercial airliner which is completely empty except for
padded walls
. The
pilot
s fly the plane in an
arc
and for a few moments the plane is in
free fall
. This creates the
illusion
of
weightlessness
. The plane is used primarily for training
astronaut
s, but also for some
scientific experimentation
.

In
Toronto
after all of the bars have closed their doors, Vomit Comets run through the arteries of the city scooping up passengers for a mere
$2
fare home. Our
subway
stops running at some point between 1 and 2 am and transportation after hours is otherwise scarce, unless you want to pay for a
cab
.
These buses are generally full of people reeking of
alcohol
, however the atmosphere is usually
giddy
and
passenger
s tend to be more
social
with one another unless they are feeling
green
. If that is the case, they can be seen with their heads hanging out the windows or sprawled out across the back seat of the bus and should not be approached.
This affectionate name for the
Blue Night
service has become so popular with
Torontonian
s that even the drivers of the routes (Namely the Yonge and Bloor-Danforth buses) use the name to describe it. If a driver asks you to watch your step, you really should.
