10This is a very popular {{Stock Phrase|s}} when it comes to a character's moral standards. Usually, it's said in a situation where someone is about to do/did something so terrible or so [[{{Squick}} disgusting]] or just purely immoral that the other characters just can't hold their tongues.
11
12Despite having a clear line when to say it, the themes and seriousness often change depending on how light or dark the story is. If a hero says it to a villain, it's used to show how monstrous the villain is, but a villain can also say it to the hero, [[WhatTheHellHero particularly if the latter has done something un-heroic]]. If a villain says it to another villain, then EvenEvilHasStandards, and when a {{Mook|s}} says it to the BigBad, a HeelFaceTurn is a high possibility. Can also be played for laughs, but not very often.
13
14Other variations are "You sicken me.", "You are disgusting.", and numerous others.

16Compare with EveryoneHasStandards, EvenEvilHasStandards, ThisIsUnforgivable, MoralEventHorizon, YouMonster, as well as ImGoingToHellForThis. See also ThereShouldBeALaw.
