/daʊs/ v. tr.: The act of slamming some liquids almost directly subsequent to swallowing something of a high-degree temperature, all while on an empty stomach. The act of dousing is usually needed in circumstances such as the one in the aforementioned definition because there is, so to speak, no "safe ground" for the "proximity mine" to land on in the consumers stomach, thus, it explodes, searing the gastric layer in the process. The best way to stop this exuberant form of pain in its tracks could be performed by Dousing the explosion with a nice swig o' milk from the nearest source.
