Pregnant Woman got pepper sprayed and kicked in the stomach? That ugly bitch was asking for it.
Patently: in an open, clear manner.

The following words I have used in forum discussions and drew reactions of "what the hell does that mean"? Someone got LMGTFY with the significance of patently. Recommended for anyone who aspires to pretentiousness.

Patently: that which is obvious to all, clearly obvious

Obdurate: Stubborn, usually associated with bad habits. I've heard it defined as "consistently impenitent".

Inchoate: still nascent; often used with something that builds into something grand, as with a crescendo.
