Satire 1.3 Lines 76-98

People make mistakes but that doesn't mean that all of those mistakes should receive the same punisment. If a waiter or waitress was to eat off of his customers' plates his boss might fire him but he would never physically hurt him. If your friend is truly friend you wouldn't cut all contact with him if he did something as small as being ten minutes late for dinner. If your friend got a stain on the shirt you let her borrow or dropped and broke your cell phone you wouldn't give them the same punishment as someone who broke into your house and stole everything. And the same goes for a roommate who drank the last of your soda. All crimes and faults are different and the one penalty cannot account for all of them.
