a fate worse than tummyache

If something is bad, then it can described as "a fate worse than tummyache". For example, being kicked in the nuts by a miss rosie, or being forced to talk to kim

Kim: Why do you want me to unblock you?
Lar: I don't. Then you could talk to me, and that would be a fate worse than tummyache!
