Effects of kicking and quaffing from sinks in NetHack 3.4
Compiled by Dylan O'Donnell <psmith@spod-central.org>.

Quaffing from sinks
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1/20 "You take a sip of scalding hot water.". If fire resistant, "It
     seems quite tasty." (no effect), otherwise lose d6 HP.
1/20 If sewer rats are genocided or extinct, "The sink seems quite
     dirty." (no effect). Otherwise, "Eek! There's a sewer rat in the
     sink!" ("something squirmy" if blind), and a sewer rat is generated.
1/20 "Some <potion appearance> liquid flows from the faucet." ("odd
     liquid" if blind). Has the effect of a random uncursed potion.
1/20 "You find a ring in the sink!". Creates a random ring and exercises
     wisdom. Only one ring per sink (from quaffing or kicking);
     thereafter, "Some dirty water backs up in the drain." (no effect).
1/20 "The pipes break! Water spurts out!". Sink becomes a fountain.
1/20 "The water moves as though of its own will!". If water elementals
     are extinct, "But it quiets down." (no effect); otherwise, creates
     a water elemental.
1/20 "Yuk, this water tastes awful". You gain 1 XP.
1/20 "Gagg... this tastes like sewage!  You vomit.". You vomit.
1/20 "This water contains toxic wastes!". If not unchanging, you
     polymorph into a new form.
11/20 No effect. Messages: "You take a sip of <temperature> water."
     ("warm", "(very) hot", "(very) cold"). "You hear clanking from
     the pipes...". "You hear snatches of song from among the
     sewers...". "From the murky drain, a hand reaches up...
     --oops--" (this last only if hallucinating).


Kicking sinks
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4/5   "Klunk!  The pipes vibrate noisily." Exercise dexterity.
1/5   Something else, as follows:

If you haven't yet got a black pudding from the sink, 1/3 chance of
one being generated. "A <black> ooze gushes up from the drain!" (if
blind, "You hear a gushing sound."), and dexterity exercised.

If you didn't get a pudding and haven't yet had a dish washer, 1/3
chance of getting one of those (an incubus if a female humanoid,
a succubus if a male humanoid, otherwise an equal chance of either).
"The dish washer returns!" ("Something returns!" if blind), and
dexterity exercised.

If you didn't get either of the above, 1/3 chance of "Flupp!  Muddy
waste pops up from the drain." ("You hear a sloshing sound." if
blind), and a random ring being created if the sink hasn't yet given
one through kicking or quaffing: "You see a ring shining in its
midst." (no message if blind) and exercise dexterity and wisdom.

If you didn't get any of the above, you get a hurt foot. "Ouch! That
hurts!", abuse dexterity and strength, 1/3 chance of right leg being
hurt for 5 to 10 turns, and lose 5 HP (3 HP if CON greater than 15).
