Lampshaded (then averted) in Deadpool (2016). Ajax tells Wade Wilson that he could speak in euphemisms ("This may hurt", "take a deep breath", etc.), but since he's completely insensitive (both emotionally and physically) he doesn't really give a crap, so he just says what he'll actually do: torture Wade mercilessly until his mutant gene activates. Then he proceeds to do exactly that. Chill Factor: An assassin tells one of the protagonists, as she is about to execute him: "Don't worry, I'm a professional, this won't hurt a bit." Given an Ironic Echo a short while later after he ends up gaining the upper hand: "I'm an amateur, this is going to hurt like hell." A valuable sociological perspective on women’s bodies and health and an even more valuable (and optimistic) view of a better future for all.’ GINA RIPPON

No More Games. No More Bombs. No More Walking. No More Fun. No More Swimming. 67. That is 17 years past 50. 17 more than I needed or wanted. Boring. I am always bitchy. No Fun - for anybody. 67. You are getting Greedy. Act your old age. Relax - This won't hurt."Alternatively, the procedure will actually not hurt at all but it's the outcome that is the problem. Maybe the execution method or the forced transformation is painless, but the promise it will be so is a hollow distraction from the victim's fate.

Coraline, the Other Parents tell Coraline this when they try to convince her to let them sew the buttons on her eyes. Coraline doesn't believe them for an instant. Those weren't exactly his last words - he lived for four more days after writing them and then, in his 'fortified compound' at Owl Farm, Woody Creek, Colorado, shot himself in the head. For good or ill, we’ve come a long way since ER. When it aired in 1994, it was the first mainstream global hit to depict the medical profession with any degree of realism. Though it still had George Clooney as the hospital paediatrician so, y’know, it wasn’t literal warts and all, that’s for sure. Over in the UK, launching in the same year, but with inevitably more local – though still heartfelt – acclaim we had Cardiac Arrest. That was all warts, sliced off by the writer and former NHS doctor Jed Mercurio and placed under a brutally unforgiving microscope. He followed that up 10 years later with Bodies, a full dissection of the people, players and power structures that simultaneously support and destroy what could be the best health system in the world, adapted from his own autobiographical novel of the same name. The result is graphically reminiscent of Jed Mercurio’s Bodies, but this time from the perspective of an unintentional bad guy who also does good… it’s complicated. The tone chops so violently between light and shade that sometimes it forgets to take the viewer with it, but Whishaw effectively embodies the bloodshot-eyed desperation of a macho-hours work culture where every slip can mean life or death.Beautifully averted in Hook, where Hook is about to pierce Peter's son's ear and tells him 'Brace yourself, lad, because this is REALLY going to hurt.' Like the book, This Is Going to Hurt is full of images and scenes that you’ll hope to forget, but, more unexpectedly, it also retains the two most difficult aspects of the book (and those, incidentally, that remain with the reader long after the foreign-objects-up-orifices anecdotage has faded).

The Murderbot Diaries. In Network Effect, Murderbot has to smash a computer containing two friendly AI's to destroy TargetControlSystem. The computer is shut down so Murderbot tells itself that they won't feel anything, while regretting that TargetControlSystem won't be conscious to feel it either. Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS has Nanoha saying "This is going to hurt a bit" to her daughter (who she is being forced to fight by the story's villain) during the finale before blasting her with five Starlight Breakers. In the Batman Beyond episode "Meltdown", Dr. Lake tells Mr. Freeze "You may feel some momentary discomfort" during the procedure to transfer his mind from his head (all that remains of him) to a new cloned body. After being betrayed by Lake, Freeze retaliates, using the same line just before freezing her. In a chapter titled “Sexy Research”, Bigg explains that “certain types of scientific advancement are valued more highly”.

Photograph: Nicole Rivelli/Netflix Doc McStuffins: The whole clinic staff uttered this exact phrase to an uneasy Niles while trying to get his bandages off. Of course, Niles was expecting it to hurt. Inverted in that they proceeded to carefully take off most of the bandages while Niles wasn't paying attention, so he naturally felt nothing when Doc told him it was time to take them off and pulled a little piece of bandage still on him. This book is about all the ways medicine is not gender-neutral, from research to treatment to diagnosis. Throughout history, flawed mindsets have paved the way for sub-par treatment, and the prevailing attitudes that still exist today have had terrible repercussions for women and their bodies.
