code brown 

medical terminology: Xray examination of the large intestine (i.e. for polyps) may require the dreaded double threat 'double contrast' barium/ air enema, in which the cleansed colon is rinsed with barium and then inflated with air like a balloon - if the patient is unable to maintain compression of the sphincter to retain the catheter/ split valve/ inflatable buttplug used to supply the barium/ air AND to stopper the anus, and thus sprays a mixture of air, barium and fecal matter under pressure from their anus (under pressure - remember the intestine is inflated with air), it may be known as a 'code brown'. this is one of many reasons Xray techs wear shoe covers.

the patient blew a code brown, and housekeeping spent the rest of the day scrubbing fecal matter out of the light fixture with a small toothbrush

the fear

paranoia/ panic caused by marijuana use

origin: William S Burroughs, LETTER FROM A MASTER ADDICT ON DANGEROUS DRUGS: "Cannabis Indica (hashish, marijuana). --The effects of this drug have been frequently and luridly described: disturbance of space-time perception, acute sensitivity to impressions, and flight of ideas, laughing jags, silliness. Marijuana is a sensitizer, and the results are not always pleasant. It makes a bad situation worse. Depression becomes despair, anxiety panic. I have already mentioned my horrible experience with marijuana during acute morphine withdrawal. I once gave marijuana to a guest who was mildly anxious about something ("On bum kicks" as he put it). After smoking half a cigarette he suddenly leapt to his feet screaming, "I got the fear!" and rushed out of the house."
