That's a much better phrase to use, it is unpleasant and not offensive, excellent.
I had a bizarre thought the other day though for something equally unpleasant, it was a characher called the Sick Psychic, the basic premice was following a walk to the beach with the kids and wife, and I said don't step on the cracks you'll have twins, Wife said something allong the lines of "that would be rather inconvenient" too which I replied "don't worry because one of them will die" don't ask why, but you could do a sketch where the SP could meet people and give them good news, but then follow it up with something really cringeworthy. ala
You will meet a tall dak stranger, he is rich and I can see you having two homes, one with a pool abroad, you will have a lovely family who will all be intelilgent and beautiful, ........ but he will fiddle with the your youngest daughter who will be forced at 14 to commit suicide.
Etc
I really think in terms of being offensive you could really hang your coat on the Sick Psychic.
Good to share, have a good weekend all,
