A Rollicking Series of Adjectival Lamentations

An extremely unfortunate blunder.
A dreadfully one-sided report.
A rumor that rumbles like thunder.
A largely uncalled-for retort.
An offensive response to an invite.
A comment that feels like abuse.
A dastardly error of insight.
An absurd, unenforceable truce.
A distressing decision to render.
An unforeseen tangle in plot.
A nasty surprise in your blender.
An unsightly trickle of snot.
A truly disturbing reflection.
A worrisome change in the weather.
A plan that will not pass inspection.
A consortium of birds of a feather.
A precipitous fall from a ladder.
A honking disturbance of geese.
An untimely failure of bladder.
An intractable blemish of grease.
A motley collection of kittens.
An effluvium of unpleasant gas.
A basket of mis-matching mittens.
A slither of snakes in the grass.
