The Difference Between Shocking, Appalling and Outrageous

Story taken from https://mybikeshopsg.wordpress.com/2011/04/30/sad-news-we-lost-a-good-friend/.

Shocking:

A drunk driver ploughed his car into a truck and instead of the car turning turtle, the enormous truck tips over and is badly damaged.

Appalling:

The drunk 19-year-old driver demanding to know why only he, and not the driver of the truck, was tested with the breathalyser.

Outrageous:

The driver's parents arriving at the scene, blithely ignoring the fact that their son had injured 2 and killed 1 and only being concerned with whether their son would go to jail.

Oh and of course, they were driving a brand new 5 series BMW.

RIP, Paul.
