Author Notes
30 minutes before the deadline , I noticed my 3rd and 4th words were wrong.

I edited and just put two new words but I realised they were weak.

My luck , my first reviewer Julie Helms kindly suggested two great alternatives.

Rampant egos gauging, raging more

Unchecked egos, aging , raging more.

Thanks Julie for your support!
