It doesn't work for either of you if the other person is aware of the curse.

Shout out to: The Brass Teapot.

This one is mild(er) than that story, because physical harm doesn't work.

Hmmm I'll have to pick who I bless with hurting their feelings.

I'm starting with going around telling all my friends and family I don't like their haircut or that they look a little rounder.

It's for their own good, I'll make it up to them later.

It buys them a few extra seconds. The magnitude of the benefits is proportional to the hurt.
