Ví dụ
Pain is a funny thing. Some patients cry bloody murder and yet the needle (kim tiêm) hasn’t even touched their skin. Others will be so oblivious (mù tịt) to the procedure (quy trình) that at the end, they will ask me, when are you going to start?

However, before you all start to cry bloody murder and try to siege (vây hãm) the Warner Bros. Pictures offices, it could be her last time playing Diana in a Wonder Woman solo movie.

So, nine games in, when the Washington Nationals were treading water, barely over .500 with a 5-4 record, all of the losses coming against either the Phillies or Marlins, was it really that surprising when Nats fans began to cry bloody murder, suggesting anarchy (hỗn loạn) to overthrow (lật đổ) the current bullpen?
