'Hurl chunks' has been a fixture of American slang since at least the 1980s, deployed in locker rooms, hangover stories, and any situation where you need to describe being spectacularly sick with the appropriate weight. It's too graphic to be subtle but too funny to be genuinely disgusting. The morning after a bad decision, this is the phrase.
He made it as far as the car park before he had to stop and hurl chunks into a hedge.
