History TheReasonYouSuckSpeech / FanficAThroughM

* In the ''FanFic/FacingTheFutureSeries'', [[WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom the heroes]] have given out these to the villains of said stories:

* In the VisualNovel/SuperDanganronpa2 fanfic ''Fanfic/SystemRestore'', Togami, [[ForWantOfANail who avoided being murdered at the party]], gives this speech to the second murderer, in response to her trying to compare her actions with Togami's attempt to sacrifice his life to stop the first murder.

** As a young Concept, Celestia witnesses the three pony tribes of Equus being torn apart by their hate for each other, and asks Entropy for help in stopping them. Entropy gives her command of the Windigos, but because of their LiteralGenie nature, when Celestia commands them to "end hatred among ponies", they start an EndlessWinter with the goal of wiping out all ponykind (because no ponies = no hatred). Furious, Celestia blames Entropy, assuming that she was behind the Windigos bringing death to Equus, and this happens:

* In ''Fanfic/WithThisRingGreenLantern'', Carol Ferris has become the ruler of Zamaron after being possessed by her evil split personality the Predator. Hal Jordan tries to reach Carol out by pointing that, as long as she lets the Predator control her, she will not be a queen but a tyrant.

* In ''VisualNovel/ApolloJusticeAceAttorneyCase5TurnaboutSubstitution'', Apollo delivers one to [[spoiler:[[BigBadFriend Rhea Wits]], the real Mysterious Bust Killer]], after besting [[spoiler:her]] in their final confrontation. [[spoiler:She]] had just previously taunted him before they were due to reconvene in court, admiting that they killed "dozens" of people because their victims simply did not "live life to its fullest" (according to their warped view on life and death), as well as going on about the ecstasy that killing and evading justice provided them with. They considered the only people who really "lived" were thrill-seekers, terrorists, etc., as they lived without fear of dying:

'''Apollo Justice''': You are '''completely wrong'''. What gives meaning to our lives... is other lives. Those people you talked about, who were truly living, who weren't afraid of death... They aren't afraid of death... because they aren't truly living. They concern themselves with their own lives, and try to find meaning in cheap, short-lived thrills. Do you know why a regular "[[WordSchmord Joe Schmoe]]", as you put it, will beg for his life when threatened? Because he has friends and family he doesn't want to leave. Friends and family that he does not want to suffer grief and hardship.\\

* In ''Webcomic/HowIBecameYours'', Zuko and Mai exchange these speeches after Zuko finds out that Mai concealed the letters about Katara's pregnancy from him. Each accuses the other of being selfish and endangering the Fire Nation, and while Zuko is [[DesignatedHero supposed to be the sympathetic one]], [[DesignatedVillain Mai's]] [[StrawmanHasAPoint arguments are more convincing]].
-->'''Zuko''': Now I see why I couldn't love you even when I tried to! My gut knew that you would do something like this to me! '''A Child mai!''' You didn't do this for our '''country!''' You didn't do this for '''me'''! You did this for you! '''You hate her more than anything since the second you saw her!!''' And I will not have you talk about her that way! For your selfish reasons, you might have put our country in '''[[RougeAnglesOfSatin dander]]''' and all that I have built for this nation!! Your a '''traitor'''!\\
'''Mai''': '''Stop talking like you care about this country and the people in it!''' I am your '''queen''' and you betrayed us all! '''It's because you love that tramp!!!''' You never cared about anyone but yourself you '''[[MemeticMutation chard]]''' '''[[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments monster]]'''! I seen it the day you left their little group and became '''Fire Lord'''! The way you looked at her said it all! Your the '''liar!!!!'''\\

'''Azula''': [[SarcasmMode What a surprise. The twelve-year old boy who happens to be the Spirit of Balance thinks revenge is bad.]] Now don't get me wrong, we both know I don't give an owl-rat's feather for what you want to do to the man. But the Avatar asked this of me, and right now I care a lot more about staying in his favor than yours. (''pauses, then smiles'') And if it's any consolation, you've actually made me very glad tonight.\\

'''Azula''': Well, for one thing, it allowed me to confirm what I always suspected: [[NotSoDifferent that deep down inside, you're just as ugly as I am]].\\
'''Katara''': (''launches a water whip at Azula, who dodges'') Don't you ''[[PunctuatedForEmphasis dare]]''. Claim that I'm ''anything'' like you!\\

'''Katara''': '''[[BigShutUp SHUT UP!]]''' (''bloodbends Azula into a submissive position, then [[KillItWithWater summons a globe of water near her head]]'') Tell me where Yon Rha [[PunctuatedForEmphasis is. Right. Now.]]\\
'''Azula''': (''softly'') Or else? (''Katara hesitates, then releases Azula and sends the water back to the ground'') Well, look at that. [[ThrowTheDogABone You're]] ''[[ThrowTheDogABone not]]'' [[YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre nearly as bad as me, after all]].

[[PrecisionFStrike Fuck you]], Zuko.

'''Azula''': Reconcile? Are you serious, Uncle? He does nothing but blame me and look down on me, and still you think it's ''my'' fault? Don't pretend for an instant you care about my side of this. [[ParentalFavoritism All you've ever bothered with is Zuko.]] He's your [[ReplacementGoldfish precious little replacement]], isn't he? I know why you're out here. I know why you haven't gone to visit him. You can't stand to see him, can you? First your son gets killed, and then your surrogate son gets half his face burnt off. [[ItsAllMyFault And you probably think that both times were your fault,]] [[TheyDiedBecauseOfYou and you're right!]] You brought Lu Ten to war, and you brought Zuko to that war meeting. Even your wife ended up dead. You can't love anything without it breaking, can you? Too bad Zuko's going to have a scar. He won't ''look'' like Lu Ten anymore.

'''Young!Azula''': I know more than you think. I know [[spoiler:that[[GrandTheftMe you turned me into your personal ball of hate]]]] against people who you see as your enemies. And you know what? I don't think they are.\\

'''Young!Azula''': No you won't. [[{{Irony}} You've managed to fail in every way possible.]] I'm not the traitor to my homeland; you are! I'm not the screw up my father cast out; YOU ARE! This is all your fault! [[NiceJobFixingItVillain If you hadn't come along, none of this would have happened!]]

--->'''Azula:''' Would you like to know ''your'' future, Zhao? How you die? You die from [[WhatAnIdiot stupidity]], and [[{{Pride}} arrogance]], and avarice. [[NiceJobFixingItVillain You die because you take a victory and turn it into a defeat.]] You break the [[MakingASplash Tribesmen]], beat down their defenses, [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu and hold their god hostage in your hand]]. And then you screw it all up, killing it, [[DoNotTauntCthulhu and invoking the Avatar's understandable wrath]]. You die because you can't accept anything less then... Zhao the ''Invincible.'' There's irony in that title.

-->'''Dark Kuroda''': I'm a flamer because I said something negative about your fanfic? You really need to grow up and understand that not everyone is going to praise what you do. This chapter is better [[RougeAnglesOfSatin then your first too]], she is slightly more likeable. However, she is making the characters run circles around her. That is what we call a [[BlackHoleSue Blackhole Sue]]. Particularly since you do make the characters [[OutOfCharacter OoC]] here.\\

'''Oshikko''': Yes... I am a flamer. I enjoy telling you how much your story actually sucks. Seriously... don't you get that this would never actually happen in the world of Bleach? [[SoBadItsGood I enjoy reading your fanfic because I enjoy laughing at your stupidity]]. Do you actually act like this girl. No... wait, I read Cutie Pie 3's review from last chapter. You're trying to mimic [[TakeThat that shit]] ''Literature/{{Twilight}}''. [[DamnedByFaintPraise You are successful in that but then... that isn't hard to do]].\\
'''Jolene Meyers''': Don't you dare diss Twilight! You are a moron not to see how great of a writer Meyer happens to be! I laugh at your stupidity, you moron. [[TemptingFate If my fanfic is so bad, why don't you write your own version, huh]]?\\
'''Oshikko''': Sure I will. [[IWarnedYou Keep in mind, you suggested I do so]].

'''Inner Hollow''': Are you fucking kidding me?! That's even more fucked up than your last reason! What makes you so special that you won't take responsibility for your actions to defend yourself?! What gives you the right to force that burden on Tatsuki?! And if you haven't already noticed Princess, the world's a shithole where bad things happen to good people. [[{{Angrish}} ARGH]] do you have any idea how badly I want to beat your head in right now!

'''Jasmine''': And how many ''more'' will die ''now'' because of you and your friends? [[MotiveRant I could've stopped it. All of it. War, disease, poverty... every last wretched drop of suffering. Children would have grown up healthy and strong, with families full of love and harmony. Peace spreading around the world like a wondrous, precious sea wave. How many precious, beautiful lives would've been saved in only a handful of years?]] [[AMillionIsAStatistic Yes, I murdered thousands... to save]] ''[[AMillionIsAStatistic billions]]''.\\

'''Jasmine''': ''[[OmniscientMoralityLicense I]]'' [[OmniscientMoralityLicense did! I'm not human, vampire- so don't try to treat me as one!]] [[IDidWhatIHadToDo I did what I did because]] ''[[IDidWhatIHadToDo someone]]'' [[IDidWhatIHadToDo had to!]] I was trying to ''save'' this world!\\
'''Buffy''': No. You were trying to ''rule'' it. And you weren't going to let anything stop you. You think we don't get it? It didn't matter to you whose lives you wrecked, or who you killed. There's nothing selfless about that... it's just ruthless. And sick. And evil. You so-called gods and higher powers are all the same; [[JerkassGods you're a bunch of selfish dirt-bags who don't care about anything but yourselves!]]\\

'''Buffy''': No. You're ''worse''. Glory was [[AxCrazy an insane maniac]] and an evil bitch, but you know what? [[AtLeastIAdmitIt At least]] ''[[AtLeastIAdmitIt she]]'' [[AtLeastIAdmitIt never pretended to be anything else]]. She was a hellgod, it woulda been crazy of us to expect her to act any other way. But ''you'', Jasmine? A higher power? One of [[ThePowersThatBe the Powers that freakin']] ''[[ThePowersThatBe Be]]''? For you to fall so far and act so low, to betray everything you're supposed to stand for... [[YouMonster that's what makes you a]] ''[[YouMonster monster!]]''

** Amy later gives one to Willow in chapter 37, [[ShutUpKirk in response to Willow]] [[YoureInsane declaring her insane]] for working with [[UltimateEvil the First]]:
--->'''Amy''': '''''No!''''' No, no, no, you want to know what's '''''insane?''''' ''Insane'' is letting other people tell you your place in the world when you could be running it. I spent my whole life letting [[AbusiveParents my bitch of a mother]] run my life, and most of high school being everyone's punching bag, and now that I have the power, I'm going to make damn sure that ''nobody'' is going to step on me ''ever'' again! Warren was right. I ''have'' been watching you. I saw that fight you had with your friends in the Magic Box last year. You took the Slayer, the baddest chick in the underworld, and you ''beat her ass''. You wiped the floor with her. It wasn't even close. And then you [[EarthShatteringKaboom nearly blew up the planet]]? For a second, I thought you were finally going to step up to the big time. To stop denying your real power, the ''real'' you.\\

'''Amy''': ''Yes it is!'' You have all this power, more than you deserve. And now that you have it, you-you don't even ''want'' it. [[AfraidOfTheirOwnStrength You're]] ''[[AfraidOfTheirOwnStrength running]]'' [[AfraidOfTheirOwnStrength from it.]] '''''[[AfraidOfTheirOwnStrength Hiding!]]''''' Holding back, playing by other people's rules, letting others tell you what you should be. People like you and I, we aren't meant to be controlled, Willow. People like us, we're ''above'' everyone else! [[ScrewTheRulesIHaveSupernaturalPowers Rules don't apply to us, we should be]] ''[[ScrewTheRulesIHaveSupernaturalPowers making]]'' [[ScrewTheRulesIHaveSupernaturalPowers the rules]].\\

'''Amy''': Oh? And how'd ''that'' work out for you. You tried it Buffy's way. You went to college like a good girl, did the Dudley Do-Right shtick, played by their rules, and what happened? You ''knew'' Warren was dangerous. You had the power to get rid of him when he was going after Buffy, hell, maybe part of you knew you ''should'' have gotten rid of him. But you didn't. All that power at your fingertips, and you did ''nothing''. You just stood by, and your best friend ended up with a bullet in her chest. And what happened to Tara? The woman you loved died bleeding in your arms, drowning in her own blood. You could have saved her if you had acted sooner, but instead, your insistence on playing by these rules... cost Tara her life. [[AccompliceByInaction Hell, you might as well have pulled the damn trigger yoursel-]]\\
'''Willow''': '''''[[BigShutUp SHUT UP!]]'''''\\

--->'''Buffy''': Now listen to me carefully. 'Cause I'm only going to say this once. I know I'm not perfect. I've screwed up majorly, and it has always come out, and I've apologized, and we've dealt. I have some major apologies to make for tonight. The way I see it, that's how it always works with this group. We must be the biggest bunch of screw-ups on this planet, 'cause we just do it over and over again: we hurt each other, it comes out, we apologize, and we deal. But you two? It never came out for you, did it? You just keep acting righteous and grinding my face into my mistakes until it ''bled''! [''to Xander''] [[Recap/BuffyTheVampireSlayerS2E16BewitchedBotheredAndBewildered Get me turned into a rat?]] I never say one angry word to you. [''to Joyce''] [[Recap/BuffyTheVampireSlayerS3E11Gingerbread Try to burn me at the stake?]] I let go 'cause I don't want you to feel bad. But you both [[HolierThanThou keep acting like the Justified]], telling me what an untrustworthy screwup I was at every turn. Well, guess what? As far as I'm concerned, neither of you is going to be the Justified again. No matter what I do, you have no right to act like you have any kind of moral authority at all. Ever.

--->'''Angel''': I should kill you. Not for me. If you'd told Buffy, maybe she could have kept me away from Acathla long enough so that I wouldn't have had to go to Hell. Maybe I wouldn't have been tortured for [[YearInsideHourOutside more than]] ''[[YearInsideHourOutside six thousand years]]''. We'll never know, will we? But that's a maybe. And maybe she would have let her guard down just far enough for Angelus to kill her. He was ready to, you know. So who knows? Maybe you even did the right thing, wrong reasons and all. And I don't care if you hate me, either. You're a petty, spiteful little boy who can't deal with someone intruding on what you perceive to be your territory. I think Oz will agree with me on that. No, the reason I want pry your ribcage open and eat your heart right now is how you treated Buffy. Angelus returns, and what do you do? Gloat and browbeat her to kill me—him. You'd always wanted me dead, and you finally had an excuse. No sympathy for what she's feeling. Your hatred for me crowded that out. When she finally does kill me, she runs away. Weaker souls have been driven to suicide by what she went through, but do you care? No. All you cared about was how she "ruined your life" by leaving for a summer that she would have spent with her father ''anyway''. Who would she have talked with about her grief if she'd stayed, huh? Giles or Willow, who I—Angelus—hurt? Or you, who would have been gloating? Maybe you- [''points to Joyce''] after you let her back in the house? Or maybe the nice police who interrogated her for murder? She gets back, and you know she had to kill the man she loves, you don't care, because that man was me. You never stopped berating her and rubbing her face in all the harm that I—he—did, until you found out what it was like to not be forgiven. Congratulations, Xander. Angelus would have admired your cruelty.

--->"All MTM ever did was try to help us. He always fired [[FrickinLaserBeams his lasers]] on time, and he always tried to lighten the mood. And what did you do during all those adventures? [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere You were always running off.]] [[DirtyCoward You were always hiding.]] You never helped us. [[ContinuityNod What happened when we were attacked by a monster under my bed? You ran off. What happened when Socrates and I were attacked by a mountain lion? You ignored us. What happened when we were all trapped by that ghost? You deserted us. What happened when Socrates was lost and cornered by two bears? You feigned injury and made me do all the work,]] [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking AND I DON'T EVEN]] ''[[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking LIKE]]'' [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking SOCRATES!]] YOU STAND HERE COMPLAINING ABOUT HOW USELESS MY INVENTIONS ARE, WHEN IN REALITY, ''[[{{Hypocrite}} YOU'RE THE USELESS ONE!]] I DON'T KNOW WHY I BOTHER WITH YOU!''

'''Clockwork''': "Still refusing to look at the big picture. Of course, how CAN you when you can't even see past your own nose?" Vortex... the Infi-Map... Pariah Dark. [[EvilIsNotAToy Time and again, you've tried to seize control of powers beyond your meager understanding and time and again, you've met with failure.]] And now you come into my domain with all the forethought of a teenager looking to steal a car for a joyride and brazenly declare that you will take MY power from ME? It would seem that Danny Fenton is quite correct when he calls you…what is that term again? [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments A 'fruit loop'?"]]

'''Spectra''': Hey, ''I'm'' the psychiatrist here, not you! If you're tryin to turn the tables on me, [[BlatantLies it's not working]]!\\

'''Spectra''': [[BigShutUp Shut up, shut up, SHUT UP!!!]]\\
'''Danny''': So, the mighty Penelope Spectra is really just an attention-craving little girl whining about how her life was so miserable, and you figured you'd drag everyone down into the same despair you had to put up with in life. [[SarcasmMode Yeah, like I'm verrrrry frightened]]. You want me to get you some tissues for your sob story? Maybe give you the number for the Self-Help Club for Whiny, Naggy Ghost Hags?

-->'''Danny''': You’re a lonely, pathetic, miserable old man who’s slowly dying inside because no one loves you, and you make yourself feel better about that by beating up little kids. You’ll never earn Mom’s love. You’ll never kill Dad. You’ll never win over my family, so you can rot through life. You just get older and older each day, breathing and eating and sleeping and dying more and more inside. And one day your age is gonna catch up to you, and you’ll die for real, and I’ll still be around, happy. ''[laughs]'' I go to bed smiling over how petty and sad you really are. G’night Vlad! Sleep well in your big empty house. I hope your big cold vaults of money are comforting, because nothing else in this world will ever comfort you. Not a wife, not family, not love! You’re rich, you’re powerful, you’re strong, but you’re an empty shell of a man, and [[TitleDrop you can’t do any better than that]].

* In the VisualNovel/SuperDanganronpa2 fanfic ''Fanfic/SystemRestore'', Togami, [[ForWantOfANail who avoided being murdered at the party]], gives this speech to the second murderer, in response to [[spoiler:her]] trying to compare [[spoiler:her]] actions with Togami's attempt to sacrifice his life to stop the first murder.

-->'''Ouma''': Your precious Harukawa-chan is nothing more than a coldhearted killer. [[SerialKiller Shinguuji-chan]] was psycho, but even he's got nothing on her! Killing people for money, destroying lives without a care in the world. And she was so desperate for me to keep it a secret, that she agreed to help me. [[YouFool What an idiot]]! [[DidYouActuallyBelieve You actually believed my sob story about wanting to save everyone]]?! What part of 'I'm a liar' do none of you get?! Not that you have any room to judge, Miss 'Caretaker'...

'''Hoshino''': Like that'll happen. [[ArmorPiercingQuestion Do you really think that no one opened their boxes? Or that there aren't other places to get murder weapons]]? Hell, you were the one who told us there was a crapload of dangerous stuff lying around when we met up last night. [...] So you can't answer that, huh? Or maybe you don't want to. Not that it matters- I'm not expecting an honest answer. Unlike everyone else, I don't just put you on a pedestal or listen to everything you say. I didn't even vote for you, anyway.\\

'''Hoshino''': I can think of a few reasons why someone like her would go to all that trouble. Maybe she's used to doing so to pad her resume for her college applications. Maybe she wants her mommy and daddy to be proud of her. Or maybe she wants to pull the wool over our eyes so that no one'll suspect her when she commits murder. In my experience, goody-two-shoes like her are [[SecretlySelfish almost always selfish at heart]]- they just try harder than most to convince people otherwise.

'''Kurogane''': [[BerserkButton A GAME]]?! Spoken like a true amateur! [[WellDoneSonGuy I competed against siblings and relatives just so the rest of the family would approve of me]]. I defeated pros who, like me, had played for all their lives. And then some newbie shows up, making me the laughingstock of the professional shogi circuit and an embarrassment to my family, merely as a demonstration of her talent! I can't think of what's worse- that you'd surpass me so quickly, or your 'beginner's luck' only lasts long enough to make a fool out of me.\\

'''Lucina''': [[BatmanGambit You also pretended to get things wrong so people could correct you. You let people think they came up with the ideas you were trying to lead them to.]]\\

'''Lucina''': I appreciate and respect how you were able to figure it all out. [[ArmorPiercingQuestion But you enjoyed it, didn't you]]?\\

'''Lucina''': You enjoyed knowing that [[ManipulativeBastard you could manipulate everyone however you wanted]]. You enjoyed watching [[spoiler:Therion]] twisting in your net. Right?\\
'''Saya''': [[CantTakeCriticism This is ridiculous; I don't deserve to be criticized like this]]!\\

--->"Goddamn it, Saya. You just make things as hard as fucking possible for everyone. You think it means you're smart. [[ArmorPiercingQuestion If you're so smart, how come]] [[IntelligenceEqualsIsolation no one can stand to be around you]]? ''(Saya tries to say something)'' No. No. It's you. I used to think it was me, and your mother trained you to do this as some kind of petty revenge. But no, it's all you. It's all just... thinking you're impressing anyone, like some smug genius. Jesus fucking christ, I can't deal with it anymore. No one can deal with you."
* In ''Fanfic/DanganronpaLastHurrah'', Nao gives one to the second killer after learning the person's FreudianExcuse- [[spoiler:Jirou wanted to be recognized as the Ultimate Scholar]], in order to outshine [[spoiler:his]] brother and be recognized by their parents. Nao asks [[spoiler:Jirou]] if [[spoiler:his]] parents were abusive, and after hearing the answer is no, gives the following speech.
-->"[[FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse It was only you who was thinking you weren't enough. You were the problem, not your brother or your parents]]! Did it ever occur to you that they have not given much guidance because they have enough trust in you to leave you alone with your decisions? Did it ever occur to you that they might be worried about your brother getting into trouble which causes them to be around him all the time? No! Because you were too busy feeling like a poor orphan when in fact your parents trust you so much that you have so much freedom!"\\
"You are lucky to have such loving parents. Not everyone still has both of their parents. Not everyone is born into a loving family. Not everyone is trusted by their parents. [[ArmorPiercingQuestion If your parents found out you killed an innocent little girl, do you think they will be proud of you]]?"

* Heroic Example: In the fan-made DCU SharedUniverse of ''JLA Watchtower'', [[http://community.livejournal.com/jla_watchtower/704725.html?thread=17000149#t17000149 Gar Logan gets in a zinger of one against a resurrected Terra]]. The Gar player at the time had ''just'' finished reading ''ComicBook/TheJudasContract'' and was mad as hell about what [[PsychoExGirlfriend Tara put him through]].

'''Superman''': I never knew what my home planet was like. My parents sent me away when I was a baby. But J’onn married. He had a family, two kids before the White Martians invaded. Kara had her parents and a little brother. Maybe more relatives, but she doesn’t like to talk about it that much. Not with me or Ma or Pa. [[NotSoDifferent And they both lost it all in an instant, either war or planetary destruction.]]\\
'''Superman''': And you know something? They’ve drawn people in instead of pushing them away. J’onn spends time talking with the others in the League. [[WakeUpGoToSchoolSaveTheWorld Kara is balancing her time between the Titans and her friends at school.]] They’re still hurting, but they reach out instead of withdrawing. They don’t let their fears get in the way of their happiness. Meanwhile, you’re not even fit to be near children.\\

'''Superman''': [[ArmorPiercingResponse No, you know how to]] ''[[ArmorPiercingResponse interrogate]]'' [[ArmorPiercingResponse them. You know how to get them to talk, even when you’re wearing that outfit. It’s easier to do when they aren’t your children.]][[{{Wangst}} You make it sound like you have a heavy burden on your shoulders looking after an entire city, even though you have people who love you and give a damn.]] [[TrueCompanions People ready to die for you]] and let you know that [[YouAreNotAlone you aren’t alone.]] And how do you thank them? ''[[UngratefulBastard ‘You’re fired, now get out of my cave’, ‘You disobeyed a direct order, Stephanie. It’s over.’ ‘I don’t need anyone.’ ‘You’re only getting in the way.’]]'' [[ArmorPiercingQuestion And do I have to mention how you thanked Miss Row? Does she still have that broken nose?”]] You had Alfred, you had Leslie, you had people who ''loved'' you and [[ExcessiveMourning you’re still griping over your parents’ death.]] Why are you still making a big deal over it?\\
'''Batman''': [[PunctuatedForEmphasis Take. That. Back!]]\\
'''Superman''': [[TheUnapologetic No. I won’t.]] And it’s going to take more than Kryptonite to stop me, Batman. You could pull it out now and I’d still be right. It wouldn’t change anything I’ve said.\\

'''Superman''': My point, Batman, is that [[FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse they suffered more than you have, and they aren’t taking it out on everyone around them.]] J’onn doesn’t punch children for reminding him of his dead ones or of a future he might never have again. He doesn’t break up with a woman he’s attracted to because he’s afraid of her dying. Kara doesn’t break off her friendship with Barbara every time she saves her life. She doesn’t conveniently forget about Ma or Pa, the closest things she has to parents right now, when she feels overwhelmed. I don’t push Lois or Jimmy or my parents away just because my planet blew up. I don’t ignore my friends or co-workers, either. And your backstory? A mugging that took your parents’ lives. That ''is'' sad. [[AdultFear And no kid should have to deal with that.]] But you know what? You’ve had time to ''mourn''. You’ve had time to ''heal''. You’ve have people to lean on. [[ArmorPiercingQuestion But you don’t seem to want that, do you?]] It’s been twenty-five years since it’s happened.

* In ''Fanfic/AllYouNeedIsLove'' Light Yagami writes Naomi Misora a letter telling her just how much Raye Penber '''''sucks''''' [[EpicFail at being an undercover F.B.I. agent]]:
-->'''Light:''' Mr. Raye Penber is very annoying and doesn't know when to LEAVE PEOPLE ALONE. I realize it is his job to follow me around like a lost puppy but could he at least put a small amount of effort into not being so bloody noticeable? It's almost embarrassing having to look behind me every day and see him there standing oh so inconspicuously behind me with that newspaper shielding his pasty face. [[NewspaperThinDisguise Yes, I can see him behind that newspaper]] the eyes in my face indicate that I am not blind. Your fiancé should note this fact next time he comes tapping along behind me, which should be any moment now I might add. Here are a few tips I wish to convey to your lover boy, please feel free to tell him for me as I think it's counterproductive for me to tell him. Besides it would just point out how inept he truly is: 1) when following someone try not to walk so loudly and when they stop walking you stop walking 2) when following someone do not literally follow them at every single moment of the day this includes lurking outside their room in the dead of night 3) [[LimitedWardrobe do not wear the same clothes every day especially when on a high school campus not only are you noticeable you look completely ridiculous]] 4) when on a bus that is being high-jacked by a man with a gun do not show your victim your ID with your real name, if you have to use a pseudonym it's not unheard of 5) [[WithCatlikeTread everyone can see you whispering in the back of the bus your voice is louder than you think]] 6) don't tell your victim what day your shift ends; you never know when they might have been paying attention. 7) when wearing the same clothes every day do not wear a [[ConspicuousTrenchcoat blue trench coat]], you want to be mistaken for a drug dealer every time you take a stroll? 8) when glaring at your victim and their date try not to look so completely bored, if you are going for the 'pedophilic-stalker' look be sure to complete it otherwise you look stupid 9) walk at a distance far enough away that your victim can't instantly grasp the fact that he is being stalked 10) try to look like you're doing something besides following your victim people might start to notice. I could go on but I think this should suffice, once again I leave with the statement THE WORLD DOES NOT REVOLVE AROUND YOU AND YOUR PATHETIC USELESS BEAU WHO CAN'T EVEN STALK HIS VICTIMS PROPERLY!!! Thank you for your time.

Kira's targeting of criminals gives a certain [[MaskOfSanity mask of sanity]] and 'goodness' in terms of his reasoning, but, due to his narcissism and deep-rooted antipathy, I doubt that they are exclusively or will remain his true aim of attack. At this point in time I would score him high for the Factor 1 scale of emotional psychopathy on the PCL-R, though his neurosis are not fully incapsulated within those criteria.

* In the [[TheBadGuyWins fanfic]] ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/9521841/6/Reign Reign]]'', Frieza gives a very scathing one to Vegeta. It also doubles with JerkassHasAPoint, considering Frieza is worse than Vegeta.
-->'''Frieza''': "Oh how I loathe people like you Vegeta. [...] A filthy traitor who thinks he has some sort of right to overthrow me. And you don't even have the common courtesy to die. That Super Saiyan ape might have vexed me, but you...you just insult me. [...] And you... Are an arrogant back-stabbing coward, who is incapable of acknowledging his own failures. You were sniveling to that Goku idiot back on Namek, [[NeverMyFault saying that everything evil you ever did was MY fault]]. Well tell me Vegeta, do you know how many worlds and civilizations you've destroyed without my order? Did I tell you to destroy Arlia? Did I order you to commit genocide on the colonies of Ethrom? Was I the one who ordered you to [[DisproportionateRetribution decapitate the king of Verbu because he insulted your height]]? No, you proved yourself quite capable of cruelty without my input. [...] You see, Vegeta, for all the cruelty and death I or my family may cause, we have our reasons. Usually it's just business, trying to expand our empire or give territory to those loyal races who need it. Occasionally I'll mix business with pleasure such as right now. But the thing is, my dear boy, that's where the difference lies. I have motives behind what I do, while you... well you are just a thug like the rest of your species, despite this infernal notion of 'Saiyan pride' you constantly scream about. A violent and petty little thug who thinks that being a 'prince' makes him something special. In actuality, you were just a grunt your whole life, lower than even Zarbon and Dodoria before you started getting lucky. The universe would be much better off without you to stain it."

-->'''Goku''': Oh, will you shut up?! I’m so sick of this! All you ever talk about is your Saiyan pride! How you were ''meant'' to be the strongest, how you were ''meant'' to be better than me! That’s the craziest thing, Vegeta, you ''were'' stronger than me! I had to [[DangerousForbiddenTechnique multiply my strength]] ''four times'' to be stronger than you, and I still needed [[KidHero Gohan]], [[BestFriend Krillin]], and [[HappilyMarried Suno’s]] help to beat you! But I didn’t let it bother me! You wanna know why? Because I never took anything for granted! I never just ''assumed'' [[SmallNameBigEgo that I was the best]]! I’m ''glad'' Freeza [[DoomedHometown blew up]] [[LaserGuidedKarma our stupid planet]]! Because otherwise, I might have grown up to be a ''coward'' like you! [...] What else would you call it? What would you call it when the second life goes any way other than exactly how you think it’s ''supposed'' to, you start to have a crisis? [[MightMakesRight What do you call it when your life is validated by being strong enough to do whatever you want]] and [[VillainousBreakdown falling apart when suddenly that changes]]? [''points to the [[SuperpoweredEvilSide Majin tattoo on Vegeta]]''] [[EvilIsEasy What do you call taking the easy way out]] [[AlwaysSomeoneBetter when things got hard]]? [...] Do you want to know why I let you live? Not just because you were strong. Not just because I wanted to fight you again so that I could prove I could beat you on my own. But because somewhere, deep down, I ''knew'' that you could have been ''more'' than what you were. [[NotSoDifferent That there wasn’t that much separating what I could have been from what you were]]. [[YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre I wanted to give you the chance to better yourself, to prove me right]]. But if ''[[EntitledBastard this]]'' is all you are... I should’ve just let Krillin kill you.

'''Asuka''': "Then tell me honestly, [[ArmorPiercingQuestion was she on the Hetzer's gun against Black Forest]]? ''[silence]'' That will be a no then. Some faith you have in her. I'm leaving. Clean up your act, or I'll find a team that has."

'''Edo''': [[FlatWhat What]]?\\

'''Kenji''': Indeed I can. For more than just this incident. Your test scores are lacking, your PT scores are too low and your marksmanship is terrible. And now this.

I remember. You also said that you studied at home, but now I know that was a lie. I think that you did not have a home. And then I remembered that your father did not die until 1946. Which means he was alive while you were in an orphanage. So he must have left you. [[ArmorPiercingQuestion Why did he leave you]]? (beat). [[ArmorPiercingQuestion What happened to your mother]]?

* From ''Fanfic/WhatIsAPersonWorth'', a deconstruction fic on the episode ''No Such Luck'' has Lincoln snap at his family in the fourth chapter and standing up to and giving a very harsh speech to his family for their treatment of him in this story, the episode and other episodes. It is nothing short of cathartic.

'''Marinette''': -the fashion industry’s biggest ''dick''. But you are a phenomenally ''stupid dick'' who [[LackOfEmpathy lacks basic empathy]] and understanding of how ''actual'' human beings operate and relate to each other. Does that sound about right?\\

Clearly you didn't, because now that I remember that night, I know that my mother was the cost. Your mother is still alive because you were selfish and wanted to keep your family together at the cost of someone else's. Not to mention your ''other'' wish; for me to love you.

'''Nedzu''': Oh really? Let’s review what happened to the last group on whom you showered this particular benevolence. ''[puts down a folder and opens it up]'' Let’s start with the 20 students you expelled a couple of years back... Six of them applied for transfers to our competitors, graduated and went on to become Pro Heroes. Four of them overseas. They are all on record as disparaging U.A. to the press as having an undeserved reputation, by the way... [[TragicDropout Six of them were unable to complete their education and are now struggling as minimum wage workers. four more of them dropped out completely and now have criminal records as Villains]].

-->'''Inko:''' You know... My little Izuku was all I had ever since his father went abroad. He was always smiling, full of happiness, gets excited on hero news. Then the moment came when he met you, he thought you were so cool with your explosive quirk. That you'd make an amazing hero with it. His world seemingly brightened even more the moment you came to his life. Izuku just wanted to be friends with you. He was so fond of you that-- that he kept on rambling about you. Everyday, every night. Every moment that he found an opportunity to talk to me about your awesomeness. But then you were heartless. He knew [[IHaveNoSon his father cut off all his ties with him]] the moment the doctor announced his quirklessness. The harsh realization of it caused him great sadness. [[SarcasmMode But that suffering was enough right?]] No! You and everybody had to rub it in his face of his disability or whatever you call it! [[IJustWantToHaveFriends All he wanted was to be friends with you!]] His desire to be friends with you put him on the edge of a cliff! And you pushed my Izuku, '''''my Izuku''''', sucking, destroying, and putting out the life out of him!! ''[[DisappointedInYou You could have done better as a person Katsuki.]]''

-->'''Blueblood''': Nearly all my life, I have been the dashing prince. The dream of noblemares everywhere. The most eligible bachelor in all Equestria. A prince that ''[[IronicEcho Miss Rarity]]'' had attempted to claim for her own. And, like all the other mares, she had forgotten one thing. A vital, very important, thing. [[ArmorPiercingQuestion Do you know what that thing was]]?\\

'''Blueblood''': ''SHE DID NOT KNOW ME!'' And neither did she care! To her, I was just a silly idea! A fantasy! A prince intended to whisk her away to a land of fairy tales; to make her a princess. [[ArmorPiercingQuestion But, I ask you]]: how? How could that have ever been anything but a loveless relationship between a selfish, self-centered witch and her hapless trophy husband?

'''Shining Armor:''' Yes, you did, [[NeverMyFault all the while openly acting like you have nothing to apologize for or even feel guilty about.]] You even had the nerve to demand that you be let go after all was said and done!\\

'''Shining Armor:''' Yes, you saved Equestria from a threat that ''you'' technically made even worse! What made you think giving [[BigBad Astelle]] that amulet was ever going to work out in the end?! And where exactly did you get the idea to believe that you had ANY right to act like WE were the ones who should've been asking for forgiveness for not believing you?! YOU DID NOTHING BUT LIE AND MANIPULATE TWILIGHT AND HER FRIENDS SINCE THE WHOLE SITUATION STARTED! WHY SHOULD WE HAVE BELIEVED YOU?!\\

'''Shining Armor:''' When Twilight told me and my wife that you had locked her in the dungeons, [[MoralEventHorizon all the while cruelly mocking her about how you were going to keep her there for the rest of her life along with her friends...]] I saw my little sister break down in tears. She tried to give you the benefit of the doubt, not once, but twice: the first time after you used that amulet, and the second time when you used it to swap bodies with her. You threw her kindness and generosity back in her face.\\
(''Trixie looked away, the incident replaying over and over in her mind, those cruel words she said, the way she taunted Twilight and manipulated her. She shivered, she really had been a monster that whole time. A selfish, egotistical monster who bit the hoof that gave her a second chance that she hadn't earned. As she looked up at Shining Armor that guilt only increased when she realized something: [[ManlyTears he was crying.]]'')\\

'''Shining Armor:''' [[CallBack "Was there ever any doubt?"]] After all, when does the [[ItsAllAboutMe “Great and Powerful” Trixie think about anyone other than herself? After all, if the situation doesn't pertain to you or benefit you in someway, why should you care?]]\\

'''Shining Armor:''' You may have everyone else buying your whole "Element of Forgiveness" stunt. But know this: as far as I'm concerned, you're still that selfish self-absorbed mare who tried to ruin my little sister's life, despite her showing you nothing but kindness. And I'm warning you right now. You take one step backward, one slip-up, give me one good reason to think you might hurt my little sister again, physically or emotionally, and [[ImpliedDeathThreat I will put. You. Down. Right then and there. Permanently.]]\\

---->'''Blue Suede Heartstrings:''' ''[angrily]'' What do I think of the lynching? I think it was a STUPID and CHILDISH and SENSELESS act. If those two hot-blooded fellas actually CHECKED what that poor colt was doin' instead of trustin' a horned mare's words an' goin' after him with barbed wire an' a loaded gun, an innocent life would've been spared. Now, I can't say anything that'll offend the King in Heaven, but anyone who does something so AWFUL like that and thinks it's okay doesn't DESERVE t' be called a 'good citizen of Ponyland'.

'''Diamond Tiara:''' (''shocked for a moment, and begins ranting furiously'') YOU CAN'T POSSIBLY BE GOING ALONG WITH THIS! It's that rotten farm-pony, Applejack!

When we started teasing Apple Bloom, [[KidsAreCruel I thought we were just we were proper girls, unlike her, we couldn't be tough.]] But you? [[{{Sadist}} You really do enjoy hurting other ponies just to see them hurt!]] I had a long talk with my parents about who ''I'' wanted to be, and I realised that wasn't it! In fact, [[HeelFaceTurn I'm going to work hard not to be like that any more.]]\\
'''Diamond Tiara:''' (''getting even angrier and less coherent'') FINE! Who needs you?! [[DiggingYourselfDeeper I can find some better friends, anyway!]] I don't ever want to see you again ''either'', you pathetic doormat!\\
'''Silver Spoon:''' (''[[NoSell completely unfazed]]'') You know... I figured this would be harder, considering how close we've been, [[FalseFriend but I realise now we never were.]] I wasn't your friend...

'''[[ShutUpHannibal Well, not any more!]]''' The more I listen to you, the more I realise this is the ''best'' thing that could have happened to me! I may not have the qualifications for Apple Bloom's club... (''glances down at her Cutie Mark'') ...but maybe, [[TheAtoner if I work hard at it,]] they ''might'' accept me as a friend.

-->'''Blueblood:''' I’m sure this comes as a surprise to most-uh... all of you. But over the past few days, [[CharacterDevelopment I’ve had some time to think about things.]] Namely, what it means to be a noble. I think we’ve made it no secret that we view ourselves as superior to other ponies, and for the most part others are in agreement of this. We boast of our superior bloodlines and influence. But after seeing what’s happened here in Canterlot, all the destruction of the things we once thought were so important, I asked myself ‘what would cause somepony to think of somepony else as superior? What makes a bloodline noble?’ We nobles don’t live lives of combat training, and few of us are master spellcasters, so it certainly isn’t martial prowess. It can’t be money, because there are several rich ponies out there that, despite their great wealth, aren’t considered to be nobles. So what is it? What causes one pony to look at another and think ‘yes, that pony most certainly is superior to me. They should be in charge.’ After much thought, I have my answer: Those ponies were exceptional and they showed it through their deeds.\\\

-->'''Nightmare Umbra:''' [[SilenceYouFool Silence!]] To call yourselves Noble is laughable. You claim to worship Celestia, yet when I look into your precious little Sun-Loving faces, I do not see ponies she would be proud of. Just look at you now-- you trample those weaker underhoof in the hope of buying yourselves another breath of life. Craven beasts, that hope is as empty as your hearts. Eight Hundred Years have I waited, marshalling my power. Eight Hundred Years have I given you to do the same. When I emerged from my silence, I expected to see ''armies'' arrayed against me! Heroes and Sages aiding great leaders in battle, against the only foe that will ever matter for you. A worthy challenge to my Dominion. What have I found? The petty rulers of a broken World, sitting in pretty rows, celebrating the union of a blushing filly and a pampered fop who you expect to be your Sovereign. Are you such fools that you thought me gone forever? Were you not informed of my return? Did you not see the signs?

'''Twilight''': Yes, you didn't know. Just like you didn't know about the bad behavior she was showing during the planning for the wedding! Just like you didn't know about the strange spells she was constantly casting on my brother, which obviously weren't headache healing spells! Just like you didn't know what [[WoundedGazelleGambit that display of crocodile tears at the rehearsal]] was meant to do! Just like you didn't know she was imprisoning ponies who were becoming obstacles in her plan in the caverns underneath the castle, like me! And just like you didn't know that she was the ''EVIL'' queen of an army of shapeshifting insect like monsters bent on devouring all the love in Equestria! Well, I know one place that they won't be able to find any real love!\\

'''Twilight''': [[WhamLine No you're not!]] You only hangout with me because my connections could help you. You never cared about me or anypony else! I can't believe I fell for it for so long.\\

'''Twilight''': And you can forget about me calling you my BBBFF anymore! In fact, [[IHaveNoSon I don't even have a brother]]. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go check on the princess.\\

'''Twilight''': ''[[IronicEcho You]]'' [[IronicEcho have a lot to think about.]]

'''Hildread''': [[BigShutUp SHUT UP!]] I am the guardian of this great nation. I protect the ponies that live in it!\\

'''Hildread''': ''[[[IgnoredEpiphany looks at her surroundings uneasily before hardening her heart]]]'' Traitors to the King must be punished.\\

'''Hildread''': [[ShutUpKirk I WILL CRUSH YOU!]]

--->'''Celestia''': I'm afraid it is ''you'' who will not be remembered for your greatness but [[SmugSnake your arrogance]], [[spoiler:Jewelius]]. You, like many others before you, have underestimated Twilight and her friends and the Magic of Friendship. And that will cost you dearly! […] You let your selfish desires turn you into a monster.\\

'''Cadance''': I finally understand, [[spoiler:cousin]]. Why [[spoiler:the changelings weren't able to feed on your love]] and why my spell [[NoSell didn't work on you]]. It's because [[TheSociopath you have no heart to feel love and therefore no love to give]]!\\

'''Cadance''': The [[spoiler:cousin, brother]], I knew [[ThatManIsDead died a long time ago]]. His heart anyway.\\

'''Twilight''': Well. In that case, let's take note of what resulted from the plan that you and certain other nobles--who no doubt represent the 'cream of the crop' in your mind--formulated. You enlisted the aid of [[spoiler: a complete psychopath, a wanted fugitive]], whom you allowed to spread harmful rumors about an innocent creature. You and your cabal of nobles maneuvered to politically isolate Peter Collins, to persecute Sveti Windwhisper--even [[spoiler: [[BadBoss conspired to frame one of your own]], Prince Blueblood]], for your plan to disrupt [[spoiler: my research...a plan, I might add, could have resulted in the death of myself and everyone nearby, reopening old breaches into a parallel plane, and even the utter destruction of Canterlot itself. As a result of your actions, Farris Wheel, a promising actor and playwright, lost his life. As a result of your actions, a young filly by the name of Dewdrop nearly lost hers]]. As a result of your actions, there has been untold needless suffering and conflict [[WeCouldHaveAvoidedAllThis that could have been avoided otherwise]]. You let [[EvilIsPetty petty]] [[GreenEyedMonster jealousy]] and short-sightedness gallop roughshod over everything this nation stands for. '''And you dare tell me that I am unfit to rule?!'''

-->'''RD''': I thought I was a '[[IronicEcho Flip-Flop]]' to you!\\

'''Gilda''': Perhaps, Element of Loyalty My Ass, now that you have new friends you don't need your old friends anymore, but you have been my only true friend, not just somehuman I used to know, and being still pissed at you for throwing me away like a worn-out rag without a second thought doesn't change that, to me it doesn't change the fact that we have been friends for years, even if perhaps you forgot that...you say i only care about being 'cool'? Big fucking talking from Miss '20% cooler', [[ArmorPiercingQuestion do you instruct your new friends as well about how to cheer for you during competitions?]] And guess what, you're wrong! I care and worry about you, and since you have been beaten like that i have good reasons to do so...So Rainbow Dash, spare me the bullshit and tell me who's that motherfucking, cock-sucking son of a bitch who signed his own death warrant!

-->'''Truth:''' You wanted to give those ponies freedom? From what? Themselves? ''[[BlackSpeech Gru dova suva, no naak grul!]]'' Your 'perfect society' is a civilization built upon deceit and lies! The very sins YOU claim cutie marks to represent! Never was there another such as you more blind to the irony of their so-called cause! [[HeWhoFightsMonsters You sought to take away the 'evil' through acts of your own evil!]] You would build a world where nopony was truly alive and free, just mindless puppets whose lives and fates were strung to your hooves, to do with as you pleased! Sentient thinking animals reduced to nothing more than toys to play with, simple minds to fill to the brim with empty promises!\\

'''Truth:''' And you speak of these cutie marks as bringing nothing but pain and misery? [[ArmorPiercingQuestion Then why, oh 'wise' and 'all-knowing' Starlight Glimmer, would you hold on tightly to your own cutie mark?]] Why, in all of creation would you, the savior to those poor souls who wandered the earth without feeling of purpose and acceptance, wish to remain branded with a symbol she deemed a mark of shame? [[BoomerangBigot If all cutie marks are nothing but a symbol of evil, then what did that make you, hmm?]] There were some who ventured into my mountain before, who called me a monster. But looking at you, and that horrendous evil mark! Why, you must be even more vile and despicable than I! Perhaps I should be the one to cower and shiver in your presence! ''Kee kee kee kee kee kee ku ku ku hur hur hur!'' [[SarcasmMode Oh please, Starlight Glimmer, whose mark makes the Devil himself seem a jolly fellow! Oh please, do not hurt me!]] ''KEE KEE KEE KEE KEE KU KU KU HUR!''\\

'''Truth:''' But the best part of all of this? You actually believe that YOU created something close to the concept of harmony and friendship? Your infallible order rested upon making ponies believe they weren't special! That friendship stemmed from being part of a group of mindless creatures incapable of thinking for themselves! Unable to have dreams and aspirations in life and taking a chance to fulfill those ambitions! You actually believed that all ponies would be better off living a dull and bland existence, where they grew into old wrinkly stallions and mares who looked back on the life they lived, and found no beauty, no wonderful cherishing memory to take reflect upon as they counted down the final seconds of their life in this world? [[InsultToRocks Even a prison cell offers more of life and freedom than what your 'perfect world' would promise!]]\\

'''Truth:''' Yes, I know. [[ItsAllAboutMe You wanted a world where only YOU were the only important pony alive.]] Where words like [[TallPoppySyndrome 'special' and 'talented' and 'amazing' only described yourself and not anypony else.]] You wanted to create a world where everypony entered the world, lived their lives, and then died having never accomplished anything in their time on this earth, because they would never have had a special talent to give them purpose in life. To give them something to dream about and work hard to fulfill, knowing that even if they don't succeed they can at least live on with the knowledge that they took a dare instead of wandering around with hideous false smiles plastered on their faces, wasting away inside until something akin to an empty colorless void remained.\\
Maybe cutie marks ''are'' evil then, Starlight Glimmer. Because yours certainly reeks of sin. ''Grell dor no kuravas''. How can you possibly return to the world outside my mountains, armed with the truth you've learned here? [[YouMonster That you're a monster worse than anything Equestria has or will face for years to come?]]

--->'''Queen Supia:''' ''[her voice a demonic, buzzing hiss]'' ...And then I learned of your tantrum over the game. [[EvilIsPetty Sending some of your soldiers to harass the poor developers just for NOT making YOU their monster?]] Do you even KNOW size-shifting spells? Have YOU ever caused a tsunami with just the force of your wings? Have YOU ever crushed a mad daimyo's army LITERALLY underhoof?" ''[Licks at her mandibles]'' Do YOU know what kappas taste like when you swallow them whole by the dozens?!

'''Twilight:''' ''[blows up Angry Pie]'' You've been kind to your children, but butchered other foals, mothers, and fathers. Innocent families. How many children died cursing you name after you killed their parents? You're not a mother! You're just Discord's butcher. You say no one but your foals care about you?! So all the time I just wasted trying to coax you back from the dark side and repair our broken bonds, the spite I endured from you, the nonstop attacks you heaped on me while I fought my hardest... No. Not just me, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF US HERE!!!! That counts for nothing?! ''[kills her again, while her friends watch in horror]'' Pop quiz, Miss Pie: WHAT do you value most?

'''The Voice/[[spoiler:Nightmare Eclipse]]:''' Yes. Exactly, Twilight. It would be. The final injustice. If Hell does not exist, it must be made. Say goodnight and welcome to purgatory! [[EvilLaugh HehehehehhehehHAHAHAHAHAHHAH]]!!!!\\

After everything you’ve done to her, all the pain you’ve put her through, all the love you should’ve given her and didn’t, and she doesn’t even know you tried to kill her. She’s just too nice a pony for that thought to cross her mind. She still wanted you there to see her honored by Luna, not to rub it in your face, not to brag, but so once in her life, she knew you were proud of her. Personally, if I were her, I’d have just told you to go straight to Pony Hell...Actually, [[SelfInflictedHell you’re already there, aren’t you?]] I hope you enjoy it.

'''Entropy:''' ''[[OOCIsSeriousBusiness [lowering her voice]]]'' I gave them only one order. To obey all that you commanded and to follow through without failure.\\

'''Celestia:''' [[LittleNo No.]]\\

-->'''Princess Celestia''': Well, I am a bit older than you, I think, so let me educate you on some simple truths. You think that control equals power. True power is something far more wonderful. You were defeated by [[EvilCannotComprehendGood something that you don’t--and never will--understand:]] love. You feed upon it, but you don’t feel it, do you? That’s why you don’t understand how you were driven from MY home. The pure love that Shining Armor and Cadence shared was something so alien to you that even your own vampiric power couldn’t handle it. It was love that defeated you, Chrysalis.

'''Celestia''': The real question is: how do you think that they will? [[ImpliedDeathThreat Pray you don’t see me again, Chrysalis.]] ''[Leaves as the drones give her a very wide berth out of fear]''

'''Sombra:''' What?\\'''Twilight:''' I've heard this bit a hundred times in a hundred stories! You're gonna say we're "not so different", rattle off a bunch of traits you ''think'' we share, and try to convince me to join your side! Well let me tell you, "Your Highness": we are ''nothing'' alike! I ''earned'' my friends, my wings, ''and'' my crown! ''You'' took your throne by force and enslaved other ponies for your own selfish gain! I got to where I am through love and friendship! You ''tried'' to get there through fear and violence, and you were ''defeated'' for it! '''Twice!''' You are ''not'' my equal. You're not even a real king. You're just a cliched bad guy straight out of a mediocre fantasy book.

-->'''Fluttershy''': I have sat here and listened to you belittle my friends, insult their business, and doubt their resolve. And for what?! So you can get some sick thrill from it?! You want to know what Rarity's accomplished? I'll tell you. [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E21DragonQuest She faced down a dragon]]. [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E2ElementsOfHarmony She attacked a manticore]]. [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E2ElementsOfHarmony She banished an evil goddess]] and [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E2TheReturnOfHarmonyPart2 defeated the very embodiment of chaos and disharmony]]. She saved the life of a complete stranger. [[RescueRomance She committed herself to him because she cared about him]]. She risked life and limb, time and again, not because she had to, but because she wanted to! [[TrueCompanions Because she has people and ponies who care about her, and she cares about them]]! She has done more in a few years than you will ever accomplish in your entire, selfish life! You are nothing compared to her!

'''Twilight''': They survive almost anywhere, you know. From salty ocean water to rocky desert soil. You can try to kill them over and over again but they just always seem to bounce back. I just wanted you to know so that if some other mare in the future thinks it’s clever to tell you that you’re pond scum because you’ve treated her the way you’re treating me, it’s not as much of an insult as you think. If anything, [[InsultToRocks it’s an insult to the cyanobacteria]]. Frankly, you aren’t worth cyanobacteria’s attention.\\

'''Twilight''': To get her back. Oh, and by the way? It's not as if it ever would have been fine, exactly, but you picked the worst possible time to try to get me liquored up so you could take me to bed. [[BerserkButton I happen to just have adopted a zero tolerance policy for mares who try to warp others' minds for their own pleasure]], and if I ever hear from anypony that you've been getting fillies drunk and taking advantage of them they will never find your body.\\

Sorry, not my problem. You should have thought of that before you went sprinting through the halls. You want me to feel better? You want to make things right? You can start by ''getting out of my life.'' God knows it’s short enough already without you in it! What the hell are you waiting for?! [[GetOut Get out! GET! OUT!!]]

* In ''[[https://www.fimfiction.net/story/257889/1/no-glimmer-of-hope/youre-at-the-edge-of-the-knife-hanging-from-the-end-of-your-rope-so-just-accept-the-inevitable-cause-youve-no-glimmer-of-hope No Glimmer of Hope]],'' Truth delivers a harsh one to Starlight Glimmer that also counts as a BreakingSpeech, not only driving into her that her philosophy of equality brought nothing but suffering to her fellow villagers, but pointing out her hypocrisy in stripping other ponies of their cutie marks while secretly keeping her own.
-->'''Truth:''' You wanted to give those ponies freedom? From what? Themselves? [[BlackSpeech Gru dova suva, no naak grul!]] Your 'perfect society' is a civilization built upon deceit and lies! The very sins YOU claim cutie marks to represent! Never was there another such as you more blind to the irony of their so-called cause! You sought to take away the 'evil' through acts of your own evil! You would build a world where nopony was truly alive and free, just mindless puppets whose lives and fates were strung to your hooves, to do with as you pleased! Sentient thinking animals reduced to nothing more than toys to play with, simple minds to fill to the brim with empty promises!\\

'''Truth:''' And you speak of these cutie marks as bringing nothing but pain and misery? Then why, oh 'wise' and 'all-knowing' Starlight Glimmer, would you hold on tightly to your own cutie mark? Why in all of creation would you, the savior to those poor souls who wandered the earth without feeling of purpose and acceptance, wish to remain branded with a symbol she deemed a mark of shame? If all cutie marks are nothing but a symbol of evil, then what did that make you, hmm? There were some who ventured into my mountain before, who called me a monster. But looking at you, and that horrendous evil mark! Why, you must be even more vile and despicable than I! Perhaps I should be the one to cower and shiver in your presence! Kee kee kee kee kee kee ku ku ku hur hur hur! Oh please, Starlight Glimmer, whose mark makes the Devil himself seem a jolly fellow! Oh please do not hurt me! KEE KEE KEE KEE KEE KU KU KU HUR!\\

'''Truth:''' But the best part of all of this? You actually believe that YOU created something close to the concept of harmony and friendship? Your infallible order rested upon making ponies believe they weren't special! That friendship stemmed from being part of a group of mindless creatures incapable of thinking for themselves! Unable to have dreams and aspirations in life and taking a chance to fulfill those ambitions! You actually believed that all ponies would be better off living a dull and bland existence, where they grew into old wrinkly stallions and mares who looked back on the life they lived, and found no beauty, no wonderful cherishing memory to take reflect upon as they counted down the final seconds of their life in this world? Even a prison cell offers more of life and freedom than what your 'perfect world' would promise!\\
'''Starlight Glimmer:''' St... stop... it...please...!\\
'''Truth:''' Why, whatever is the matter my dear Starlight Glimmer? Does the truth behind your philosophy hurt you? But you seemed so blood-bound to your ideals not so long ago? Are you...gasp...are you starting to doubt your own ideals? The near-biblical true way of life that you so persistently forced upon others? Tsk tsk tsk, Starlight Glimmer. If you cannot even defend your beliefs, then your cause has been but a waste of time. For yourself and for those poor souls who you deceived with your terrible lies and false dreams.\\

'''Truth:''' Yes, I know. You wanted a world where only YOU was the only important pony alive. Where words like 'special' and 'talented' and 'amazing' only described yourself and not anypony else. You wanted to create a world where everypony entered the world, lived their lives, and then died having never accomplished anything in their time on this earth, because they would never have had a special talent to give them purpose in life. To give them something to dream about and work hard to fulfill, knowing that even if they don't succeed they can at least live on with the knowledge that they took a dare instead of wandering around with hideous false smiles plastered on their faces, wasting away inside until something akin to an empty colorless void remained.\\
Maybe cutie marks are evil then, Starlight Glimmer. Because yours certainly reeks of sin. Grell dor no kuravas. How can you possibly return to the world outside my mountains, armed with the truth you've learned here? That you're a monster worse than anything Equestria has or will face for years to come?

'''Dipper:''' Oh? One, the and Grunkle Stan made fun of me and I almost died multiple times because I wanted to be more masculine! Two, my job at the pool. I had to give up my job so you could have your first kiss.\\

'''Dipper:''' And the pool had the only cooler you could use? Or you could've just asked me to help you. And when I was giving Mermando reverse CPR you took blackmail photos! Three! We were supposed to solve the password to [=McGucket's=] laptop and instead of helping me, like you <em>promised</em>, you started planning a sock puppet play for a boy you'd just met! And you couldn't just let me work on it alone, no, you had to force me into it. Four! You almost got me and Wendy killed because you wanted to be "Mabel, Matchmaker extraordinaire"! That's just part of the summer. I could go on forever, Mabel!\\

-->'''Dipper:''' Of course you wouldn't. Everything always has to be what you want, doesn't it, Mabel?\\
-->'''Mabel:''' What do you mean, Dipper?\\
-->'''Dipper:''' I had to give up my chance with Wendy so you could get Waddles, who you only knew for a few hours!\\
-->'''Mabel:''' Pacifica was going to turn him into bacon!\\
-->'''Dipper:''' How do you know that? Maybe she just wanted to have a pet! Did'ja ever think about that!?\\
-->'''Mabel:''' You're being so nice about Pacifica, gasp, Do you like her!? Is she the new Wendy!?
-->'''Dipper:''' Shut up, Mabel! Why can't you take anything seriously!? And why do you always have to tease me about everything!?\\

-->'''Dipper:''' See! See! You couldn't have just called me a zombie or an insomniac. No, it had to be a nerd zombie, because anyone that has more intelligence than one would realize that all you are is selfish and suffocating!\\

* Mabel gets another one in ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13554128/1/Suffocating]]'' where her argument with Dipper over him becoming Ford's apprentice plays out a little differently:

--->'''Celestia''': I'm afraid it is ''you'' who will not be remembered for your greatness but [[SmugSnake your arrogance]], [[spoiler:Jewelius]]. You, like many others before you, have underestimated Twilight and her friends and the Magic of Friendship. And that will cost you dearly!

* Sylvain gives a ''brutal'' one to his BigBrotherBully Miklan in ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/23174044/chapters/55468285 Those With Ruinous Envy]]''. By that point, Miklan had [[spoiler: [[SelfMadeOrphan killed their father]]]], kidnapped their mother, and lured Sylvain to a spot from their childhood so Sylvain could exchange himself for her. Despite Sylvain's pity over his brother being TheUnfavorite due to him lacking a Crest, he's fully accepted that Miklan has gone off the deep end and absolutely ''snaps'' when Miklan accuses him of being spoiled.

'''Azula''': [[SarcasmMode What a surprise. The twelve-year old boy who happens to be the Spirit of Balance thinks revenge is bad.]] Now don't get me wrong, we both know I don't give an owl-rat's feather for what you want to do to the man. But the Avatar asked this of me, and right now I care a lot more about staying in his favor than yours. ''[pauses, then smiles]'' And if it's any consolation, you've actually made me very glad tonight.\\

'''Katara''': ''[launches a water whip at Azula, who dodges]'' Don't you ''[[PunctuatedForEmphasis dare]]''. Claim that I'm ''anything'' like you!\\

'''Azula''': But maybe it's because he's Fire Nation military. So obviously he's an evil, evil man who probably kicks puppy-doves and steals sweets from children. I mean, that's what we all do, isn't it? The big, bad Fire Nation?\\

'''Katara''': '''[[BigShutUp SHUT UP!]]''' ''[bloodbends Azula into a submissive position, then summons a globe of water'' Tell me where Yon Rha [[PunctuatedForEmphasis is. Right. Now.]]\\
'''Azula''': ''[softly]'' Or else? ''[Katara hesitates, then releases Azula and sends the water back to the ground]'' Well, look at that. [[ThrowTheDogABone You're]] ''[[ThrowTheDogABone not]]'' [[YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre nearly as bad as me, after all]].

* In ''WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom'' fanfic ''Fanfic/ResurrectedMemories'': Ember as Amberline delivers an ''epic'' one to Paulina after the latter tries one of her put downs.

* In the fanfic ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/9521841/6/Reign Reign]]'', Frieza gives a very scathing one to Vegeta. It also doubles with JerkassHasAPoint, considering Frieza is worse than Vegeta.

* ''FanFic/DrawnWithTheNight'': When Celestia learns that Luna continued to invade Klein's mind and drive him mad, after Celestia promised that she and Equestria would leave him alone, she rips into her about violating her trust, continuing to assault someone she wronged in an area she can remain hidden and where he can't protect himself, and for doing it all in her name. By the end, Luna is left a quivering, crying, mess.

* In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/4520403/10/The-Dungeon-Books The Dungeon Books]]'', [[ManipulativeBastard Dumbledore]] gets one from the entire Order of the Phoenix, including people who had previously been utterly loyal, when he says that because Harry grew up in a loving adoptive home instead of at the Dursleys' [[spoiler:he has gone Dark and must be killed]].

* In ''FanFic/TheVerySecretDiary'', Tom Riddle doles these out like candy to Ginny [[BreakThemByTalking in order to destroy her]]. Ginny herself doles out a particularly biting one to him after deducing his past. Its all the more remarkable considering her mind has been enthralled to Tom's sick whims by this point.

* In ''Fanfic/ThePowerOfSeven'', Dumbledore receives one from the spirit of Lily Potter when he summons her with the Resurrection Stone, only for Lily to criticise everything he's done in regards to Harry's upbringing.
