example of purposeful tone
In one motion the tall young man beckoned me over with urgency. I felt anxious and somewhat uncomfortable as I stumbled toward his intimidating figure. Before he had the chance to open his mouth and belittle me in the passive-aggressive manner I am so often spoken to in. My shirt stature, round body-type, and greasy comb-over frequently earned me snide comments of my inferiority to the rest of the world. I can’t tell you now, there is absolutely nothing an attractive and seemingly successful man like this could tell me without the sole intention of making him feel better about himself. I will not be used to prop up another man’s ego this time, I will make him suffer as I have for over fifty years
