How to use suck in a sentence?

  1. Meghan Markle:

    I really think it stinks, i just still think you have to be there for your daughter. Just suck it up.

  2. H.W. Mann:

    If your perception is today‘s gonna suck - it will

  3. Anne Heche:

    Today's been a very unique day, i don't know what happened, sometimes days just suck and I don't know if you ever have them, but some days Mama says are... some days are those no good very bad days. And I don't know why some days just end up like this, and things don't really rock me like that.

  4. Hunter Martin/Getty Images:

    It's really easy for the media and the administration to just focus on Lia and all the things that are hurting her and how she needs compassion right now, but I think we're the ones who truly need compassion right now, and we're the ones who are just being overlooked and told to just suck it up and deal with it and to accept second place. I think it's wrong, when we came here, we were told we were going to have equal opportunities, and it just seems like our administrators and parts of society, very small parts, because I believe most people know it's wrong, but that those people just think that we shouldn't care about winning. And that's wrong. You know, what message are you telling little girls? You're telling them that they shouldn't strive for first place, that they should be OK with second.

  5. Mark Zuckerberg:

    You have someone like Elizabeth Warren who thinks that the right answer is to break up the companies, if Elizabeth Warren gets elected president, then I would bet that we will have a legal challenge, and I would bet that we will win the legal challenge. And does that still suck for us ? Yeah.
