As I said, I think "slurp" is the culprit here. I'm fine with "spew" cause it's a general term. The "vomit" meaning is limited to human context, like in "to make someone spew". > I think all of these method names are not meant to be taken 100% seriously ;-) Yes, but wrong associations can lead to hard to debug misunderstandings. For instance wantarray is true in "list" context. This function should have been named wantlist() instead.
