I rather like the Court of the Offended.
Lea: Thank you Judge. One day, I was feeling a little down. While sitting in the break room, Vic came in to get a cup of coffee. I told him I was depressed. Instead of just showing a little sympathy, Vic commanded me to respond to some spiritual dictate because of how his God feels. I was humiliated.
Judge Sue: That is horrible. What gave you the right to say something like that to the poor girl, Mr. Timized?
Vic: She said she was sad, so I said, “Smile. God loves you.”
Judge Sue: Appalling! You arrogant jerk. As if you know whom God loves.
