I hope the doctor withholds the medication that would ease her cramps.

I hope she knows people won't be wasting their beautiful minds over her ugly soul.

My stomach would hurt too. The rest of us are feeling the pain several inches lower down though.

I don't wish ill on anybody, but times like this it's hard not to.

I can't muster one millisecond of concern for anyone in that stinking clan of thieves and traitors.
