Had It Coming

When a person gets what they deserve, their comeuppance or karma, generally because they've acted selfishly and with total disrespect for the people around them.

When this happens very few people will feel sorry for them, even if they pretend to just to keep up appearances.

Jennifer may have lost a lot of money from the deal, but to be honest she had it coming. She's been hustling all over town for years.

had words

1. v. (past tense) To have played a bitterly divisive game of Words With Friends with someone, therefore becoming mortal enemies.

I used to be good friends with Bobby, but then we had words. Now whenever we see meet, we just let out insane karate kaias, and pummel each other with a tornado of kicks and punches.
