Hey, mister: I didn't just see you refill that plastic bottle, did I? Your type really makes me sick. Reusing products when there are perfectly good new ones to buy. And that jacket...it looks a little too small for your frame. Let me see the sales receipt. You do have the proof-of-purchase, right? Because if I find out thats a hand-me-down, it's straight to the slammer, buddy! We have laws in this economy!

There really is a fixed amount of happiness in the world. And fear. And pain. And every other feeling. If you step on a nail, someone else feels momentary relief from their chronic illness; but if you fall in love today, another person will feel the sharp stab of loss as a memory of their partner's untimely death resurfaces unbidden. What is an ethical being to do...?
