maybe you weren't totally prepared for ALONE, you know? ALONE. like really and truly alone in italics like [i]ALONE[/i]

like all capitals, bolded, italicized [i][b]ALONE[/b][/i].

exclamation mark

how hardened criminals bawl like babies when [i][b]ALONE[/b][/i].

like the worst thing you can do to anybody is make them alone. like even if it's for their own safety, or whatever, that alone is the worst torture you can put on anybody, ever, even like rape or stabbing to death with a pen or like having your head hacked off with a blunt machete, how all of that

is merciful compared to [i][b]ALONE[/b][/i].
