Examples of disgusting in a Sentence
There is a double standard [in the film industry]. I notice that with actress friends of mine. And it's disgusting. It's not a problem that's specific to Hollywood.
What's more unjust, cruel, and disgusting than humanity and Hell? God.
This statement is extremely disgusting and blatantly homophobic, these are young girls in a very macho, masculine society who are trying to make a living, but are being underpaid or not paid on time.
Press Secretary Sarah Sanders:
The collective silence by the left and its media allies is appalling. Both Bee and TBS disgusting comments and show are not fit for broadcast, and executives at Time Warner and Turner Broadcasting System must demonstrate that such explicit profanity about female members of this administration will not be condoned on its network.
These comments are disgusting and have no place in the Republican Party or in public discourse, spreading conspiracy theories that the murder was staged simply defies reality ; it is irresponsible, and unbecoming of anyone who holds a position in the Texas GOP.
