One day, God appeared to Abraham as three men and Abraham
welcomed him/them into his home and fed him. As they were leaving, God confided
in Abraham that the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah were so sinful that He was
going to destroy them. Abraham asked Him not to, pleading if he could find at
least fifty… no forty-five… (etc) no ten, that God would not destroy the
cities. That night, two angels went to visit Sodom and stayed in Lot’s home.
All of the sudden, all of the men in the city came and asked Lot to bring out
the two men so that they could sleep with him. Lot instead offered up his two
virgin daughters to sleep with the mob, who all weren’t too happy with the
consolation. The angels pulled Lot back into his home, blinded the mob, and
urged him to gather his family and leave the city, as it was going to be
destroyed by God. Lot, his wife, and his daughters left the city; as his wife
looked back at their home, she was turned into a pillar of salt. Lot and his
daughters camped out in a cave and his older daughter decided that because
there weren’t any men to give them children, they should sleep with their
father. So for two consecutive nights, they get their father drunk and are
impregnated by him.

Gee,
that was heavy. Anyways. Unfair punishments are so not cool. They’re actually
kind of the worst kind. But in my case, I usually walk myself into that trap
because I’m stubborn and I back talk and then it makes my parents extra mad, so
it’s really my fault that I got an unfair punishment. Still though, it’s rough.
Kind of. I feel like there are a lot more unfair nonpunishments than
punishments in some cases. Oh, you know a guy who knows a guy? No biggie, here,
have a stern look and a cookie! That’s always annoying.
