Friendliness


How could we share our intelligence and wit if we did not have friends to share it with? That is why it is important to learn the virtue ethics behind friendship. We have to be able to avoid being quarrelsome about trivial information and work towards not coming off as ingratiating. This was portrayed in the Pixar movie Up. Mr. Fredrickson became grumpy and angry with old age but started to change after meeting a boy scout named Russell. Mr. Fredrickson used the lesser of two evils by striving to be ingratiating rather than quarrelsome to find the mean friendliness and eventually he did.
