Thanks, Starfury.

"the term "torture" means any act by which severe pain or suffering, whether physical or mental, is intentionally inflicted on a person "

Okay. Then, since I can't stand it when someone runs their fingernails down a chalkboard, whenever someone does that with me in earshot, they are guilty of torture?

Since I can't stand to hear unreasonable, uninformed people spout nonsense, I could report SwamP-ThinG to the authorities and they'll arrest him for torture?

Both of these acts cause me severe pain AND suffering.
