* ''Webcomic/{{Aurora}}'': Kendal delivers one to [[LawfulNeutral Zuurith]] while Zuurith isn't even present, remarking on how Zuurith is breaking his alleged principles to deal with Kendal because at his core, it's not justice he cares about, it's control.

** [[http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots1007.html Strip #1007]] has what may be the most painful one yet, since it's being delivered [[spoiler:by a spirit created from the recipient's own resentment. The High Priest of Hell harshly reminds Durkon that he actually wished for his own people to be damned to Hel at his lowest point, and that the High Priest himself ''is'' that wish brought to life by Hel]].

* In ''Webcomic/AtomicLaundromat'', Angela asks Juno, which whom she has a very contentious relationship, why she spent the past few minutes helping her learn how to safely use the mutagen she stole so she doesn't kill herself, rather than attempt to talk her out of trying to give herself powers. Juno points out she's too stubborn to bother talking her out the dumb idea, to which Angela denies. This leads to a short back-and-forth in which Juno is pushed to give her undiluted opinion of her employer's girlfriend that Angela is unable to refute.

* Defied in ''Webcomic/{{Erma}}''. Emiko, pissed that [[AbusiveParents her father Osamu]] is trying to act like a kind person and that the past never happened, ''attempts'' to give one of these by going down the long list of all the ways he was not only horribly abusive to Emiko and the rest of her siblings, but also her husband Sam. As soon as she's done speaking, [[spoiler:he not only reminds her just [[OneWingedAngel how overwhelmingly powerful he still is]], but drops the bombshell that her and Sam [[ILetYouWin never actually defeated him all those years ago]]. He discovered where they were and where they were going the day after they escaped, and could have easily destroyed their happy little suburban life with their daughter Erma at any point in the past decade. He doesn't care if she (or the rest of siblings, for that matter) forgives him or not because, frankly, he's still their father regardless]]. He happily bids her a good night, while she spends both the immediate aftermath and most of the following day in a ThousandYardStare.

** In "Oceans Unmoving", while defeating Calix in a duel as he speaks, Bun-bun tells him that his plan to free his people and let them take over one of the [[JustForFun/RecycledInSpace high-tech pirate ships]] failed because it sucked; because they're too high-tech for untrained people to operate; and that he thus doomed his own people to be killed or taken by the attacking Admiral Jacobs. Actually Calix is lucky that Bun-bun finds amusement in breaking his spirit, because otherwise he certainly couldn't have survived after antagonising Bun-bun.

Then, with unusual GenreBlindness, he starts telling her how stupid she was to let herself be manipulated there, and goes on to torture her with verbal images of her supposed beloved getting cuddly with someone else. This backfires nastily.
