8. Pride and vanity—dying because she insisted on pausing to put her make-up on. Idiots.


Your point #8 reminded me of Jezebel. A Phoenician, she worshiped the nature god Baal, even after marrying King Ahab. The Israelite’s and prophet Elijah despised her.

When it became known that her rule was about to be overthrown; the vain, cunning woman dressed in her most provocative attire and applied her makeup while waiting for her executioner. While in her finery she was thrown over her balcony, trampled by horses and eaten by dogs, fulfilling a prophesy.
