Emphatic Reflexive verbs

Question

Hola todas, I was thinking more about how reflexive verbs and regular verbs are the same. I then thought about pronominal verbs. I was thinking that a pronominal verb ALWAYS had to be reflexive and maybe some verbs can never be reflexive. I found this.

"emphatic reflexive verbs

Many verbs can be made reflexive for emphasis, giving an effect similar to he went and... or if you please in English. With verbs of eating/drinking, the effect is similar to putting up after the verb: se lo comió = he ate it up; se lo robó = he went and stole it."

I would like more examples of this type of verb usage. Please.
