Point system

We are all the same is the moral of the story.
All men are the same is the moral of the story,
but it is not good news. Strangers should never
be encouraged is the moral of the story. Lose

and forfeit your job is the moral of the story.
Come off hard is the moral of the story.
The wolf lives and probably will get you
is the moral of the story. Resistance
is justified is the moral of the story.

Your “but Google is the moral of the story”
is the complete opposite of the truth. Think
before you act is the moral of the story. The last
line of the play is, “The moral of the story isn’t
get along; it’s get to know your neighbor.”
