The spins is a term originated in north america, it happens when you overdrink or mix drinking with marijuana and the room begins to spin, usually causing nausea and toilet hugging behaviour. There are two things that cause the spins more than others, one being drinking Vodka and the other being Mixing rum with marijuana. A good way to avoid puking when you start to feel like this is to stand up, ALWAYS stay standing if you are sitting down and starting to spin, i say this in great confidence with years of experience behind this method.

Spin Doctors” are frequently used by politicians to help write a slanted story which presents a “fact” in a far different way than most people would see it, had it been told directly and honestly.
