Edna died last night, But few have noticed, Sid steals her chair.

Sid is such a bastard. 8 shall be thy blessing.

Sid isn't a bastard, bereft of innocence and idealism he has embraced pragmatism. This happens in old age.

Life is for the living, and when you're old a comfy chair is worth the loss of a few principles. Nice flow, succinct.
