    Saturnine: Painful expression caused by lead poisoning; sluggish and slow to respond. That is why the expressions are so weird on the old paintings when women thought lead white was beautiful.

    Sanguinary:
    Some of us laugh
    Some of us cry
    Some of us smoke
    Some of us lie
    But it's all just the way
    that we cope with our lives...

    Moral: Adherence to specific values each person defines differently. Some make many things immoral while other make few things immoral. Either will fight to the death for what they in their own minds think is perceived as a value.

    Rules:
    Some of us laugh
    Some of us cry
    Some of us smoke
    Some of us lie
    But it's all just the way
    that we cope with our lives...

    Collapse: A dramatically staged pratfall designed to indicate surprise, fear, fainting, etc. or perhaps something more serious, such as a heart attack
