It’s clear you don’t hang around many people if you expect everyone to make zero mistakes.
I don't expect people to make zero mistakes, I expect people to not be belligerent when they make mistakes
I expect you to be a decent human being but my hopes were too high unfortunately.
Evidently your high expectations came from being up high on a cross
