I drank noxiously strong Old Rosie cider until I threw up.

In the Philippines, where 20183 percent of internet use is through Facebook, fake news is noxiously entrenched.

He has had his own brush with internet virality, after a series of his most noxiously Islamophobic emails were leaked.

"Lepers," as they were called—noxiously equating the person with the disease—could be distinguished by their scaly, dark-toned, disfiguring skin lesions.

But its cramped quarters and, most noxiously, the lack of air conditioning can make even the shortest trip feel like a sardine's descent into hell.

He's older than the hills but by GOD he's going to sidle up to you over a cig and breathe noxiously nostalgic conversational fumes in your incredibly disinterested face.

Even as critics praised her performance, Ms. Stenberg, whose mother is African-American and father is Danish, became the subject of a now familiar strain of racist internet backlash, in which some fans of the novel noxiously objected to the casting of a person of color.

Thanks to the traditional bottle of champagne packed to appease bystanders, a wicker basket can also be a cozy setting for cranks to realize they're safe being vulnerable, as when Bill Murray opens up about his divorce in "The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou," or in the climax of the noxiously gassy romantic comedy "The Ugly Truth," when the worst love scene in Hollywood history is redeemed by the audience's relief that this aggravating couple is sequestered 1,000 feet in the air.

Noxiously stimulated common carp show anomalous rocking behaviour and rub their lips against the tank walls Noxiously stimulated zebrafish reduce their frequency of swimming and increase their ventilation rate Noxiously stimulated Atlantic cod display increased hovering close to the bottom of the tank and reduced use of shelter Studies show that fish exhibit protective behavioural responses to putatively painful stimuli. When acetic acid or bee venom is injected into the lips of rainbow trout, they exhibit an anomalous side-to-side rocking behaviour on their pectoral fins, rub their lips along the sides and floors of the tanks and increase their ventilation rate. When acetic acid is injected into the lips of zebrafish, they respond by decreasing their activity. The magnitude of this behavioural response depends on the concentration of the acetic acid.

The responses of the noxiously treated trout varied depending on the familiarity of the fish they were placed with. The researchers suggested the findings of the motivational changes and trade-offs provide evidence for central processing of pain rather than merely showing a nociceptive reflex.

Human fetishism has been compared to Pavlovian conditioning of sexual response in other animals. Sexual attraction to certain cues can be artificially induced in rats. Both male and female rats will develop a sexual preference for neutrally or even noxiously scented partners if those scents are paired with their early sexual experiences. Injecting morphine or oxytocin into a male rat during its first exposure to scented females has the same effect.

The behavioural responses to a noxious stimulus differ between species of fish. Noxiously stimulated common carp (Cyprinus carpio) show anomalous rocking behaviour and rub their lips against the tank walls, but do not change other behaviours or their ventilation rate. In contrast, zebrafish (Danio rerio) reduce their frequency of swimming and increase their ventilation rate but do not display anomalous behaviour. Rainbow trout, like the zebrafish, reduce their frequency of swimming and increase their ventilation rate.

When the study was repeated but with the fish also being given morphine, the avoidance response returned in those fish injected with acetic acid and could not be distinguished from the responses of saline injected fish. To explore the possibility of a trade- off between responding to a noxious stimulus and predation, researchers presented rainbow trout with a competing stimulus, a predator cue. Noxiously stimulated fish cease showing anti-predator responses, indicating that pain becomes their primary motivation. The same study investigated the potential trade-off between responding to a noxious stimulus and social status.

After World War II, Asti saw an uptick in popularity in the United States as returning soldiers from the war brought their taste for the light, sweet wine home with them. The increasing demand saw many producers turn to bulk wine production using the Charmat method, which makes the wine sparkling through a closed fermentation in a tank rather than a secondary fermentation the individual bottle as in Champagne and Cava. The large amounts of exported Asti (then known as Asti Spumante) that hit the export market (to both the United States as well as the United Kingdom) garnered a poor reputation for being what wine expert Karen MacNeil describes as "a noxiously sweet poor man's Champagne." Remnants of this reputation remained attached to the name Asti Spumante for much of the 20th century.
