Narrator: Once upon a time:
T-Rex: Everything I have is mine, and mine alone!

T-Rex: If other people want to use what's mine, they will have to get their own.
T-Rex: There's only enough for me!
T-Rex: Sorry!

Narrator: The very next day:
Utahraptor: I just won the lottery!
T-Rex: What?!

Utahraptor: Yep! It was on a SHARED lottery ticket that I SHARED with a friend of mine! Remember? The one you didn't want to SHARE with us because you wanted to buy your own?
Utahraptor: Now my friend and I are richer! We have more money!

Narrator: MORAL:
T-Rex: I should have been more willing to share!
Narrator: (IMPLICATION: "Then I'd have more money!")
