You have to do the whole hog though
I'm now tempted to try and fit Shakespearean trigger phrases into our scenes, our house had been standing 200 years when he was writing his plays after all.
"Away, you three-inch fool!" - pie in the face.
"Come, come, you froward and unable worms!" - deluge of blue gunge.
"His wit's as thick as a Tewkesbury mustard." - yellow gunge down the trousers.
"The rankest compound of villainous smell that ever offended nostril" - baked beans over the head.
There used to be a game show on Nickelodeon called Figure It Out. It featured something called the secret slime action, where a contestant got slimed for some pre-determined action, like scratching their nose. Then, I think they had to guess what that action was.

They were asked what they thought it was, but if they didn't get it, they were told.
In an early season, a guy from The Mystery Files of Shelby Woo was on, and got slimed. He was asked what he thought the slime action was, and he guessed "thinking". It was touching your chin.
Fast fact: This guy went on to play on Buffy, as part of the Trio, specifically the guy who got skinned by Willow.
