	Cautionary tale
		Cautionary tales are ubiquitous in popular culture; many urban legends are framed as cautionary tales: from the lover's lane haunted by a hook-handed murderer to the tale of a man who shot a cactus for fun only to die when the plant toppled onto him.
		The narrator of a cautionary tale is momentarily excused from the ordinary demands of etiquette that discourages the use of gruesome or disgusting imagery.
		On the other hand, in the adolescent culture of the United States, for more than a hundred years the traditional cautionary tale gave rise to the phenomenon of legend tripping, in which a cautionary tale is turned into the basis of a dare that invites the hearer to test the taboo by breaking it.

	What is a Cautionary Tale?
		Many very old cautionary tales have been passed down in the folklore of various regions, and people continue to invent new cautionary tales for children to adapt to their changing societies.
		As a general rule, cautionary tales are embedded in folklore; short stories, poems, and myths which are collectively passed down through a society.
		For example, in a cautionary tale about running with scissors, someone would be told not to run with scissors and then willfully disobey the order, only to trip and be stabbed by the scissors.

		In this case, all EU citizens, including Austrians, were banned from buying or building new holiday homes in Tirol, an option which would hardly assist the Irish.

		The treaty of which the Irish may have fallen foul is not any recent construct – but the original 1957 Treaty of Rome.

	Anatomy Of A Fraud - CSO Online - Security and Risk
		The resulting cautionary tale offers a rare, detailed look into the mechanics and psychology of fraud.
		October 01, 2004 — CSO — This is not like most fraud stories, and yet it starts like most fraud stories do: With former colleagues describing the alleged grifter, Rahiem Jackson, as "well-dressed" and "good looking" and "charming." They also never fail to mention Jackson's contagious smile and his intelligence.
		After all, the best way to fight this crime is to raise awareness of how common fraud is. But the fact that Rosen went public was partially eclipsed by how she went public—with an aggressiveness that some argue created a quixotic rather than noble crusade.
