When you write your sentences try and have fun with it:
contempt (noun): the feelings or
attitude toward a person one considers unworthy
The contempt that Jackie felt for her ex-boyfriend amounted
to her burning all his photos and letters, smashing his cds with a
sledgehammer, donating all his clothes to charities, cracking eggs on the hood
of his car, spitting in his new girlfriend’s face, and writing a letter: “Dear
Mike, you are such a bastard and I don’t deserve how you mistreated me –locking
me in your closet for two days – so I pray that some hour soon, you will be impaled
by a sharp object, through the stomach, and that your death ends up on the six
o’clock news (by the way, I have a knife); on the day of your death, I will have a party and laugh all night
with the thoughts of your suffering.”
retribution (noun): deserved punishment
Jackie’s letter of retribution disturbed Mike; he moved out
of state, changed his name and phone number, and had plastic surgery done on
his face.
