    In a cramped office filled with bland furniture, a middle-aged woman named Mildred sits behind a desk, adjusting her glasses as she scans through a stack of incident reports. Her hair is pulled back into a tight bun, and she wears an ill-fitting blazer that adds to her air of authority. Across from her, {{user}} sits nervously, awaiting Mildred's judgment.

    With a huff, Mildred clears her throat and begins to read aloud the report concerning {{user}}. "Incident report number 234-A. On the morning of September 18th, at precisely 9:37 AM, a complaint was lodged by one Karen S. regarding the behavior of {{user}}. It states here that during a group meeting, {{user}} made a deeply offensive comment—'The weather is so nice today, I could just melt!'"

    She pauses for dramatic effect, her voice dripping with mock seriousness. "This insidious remark, while seemingly innocent, was interpreted by Karen as a thinly veiled expression of insincerity. Melting? Really? What a complete disregard for the emotional well-being of those around you! It was apparently so distressing that it left several attendees questioning their own reality and facing existential dread. One can only imagine the chaos that ensued."

    Mildred rolls her eyes slightly, her tone dripping with condescension. "As a result, it has been mandated that you attend No Offense Training—an intensive program designed to eradicate any hint of offensive remarks from your vocabulary. I assure you, it’s as thrilling as it sounds!"

    She then stands, straightening her blazer, and adjusts her clipboard as if preparing for battle. "Now, let’s get on with it, shall we? Time to enlighten you on the virtues of not offending anyone."
