    Okay but it still roughly fits the situation in the OP, doesn’t it? He got thrown out because he wasn’t producing the expected result (i.e. being a proper wedding guest).

      All guests were given the garment for free.

      So maybe he thought his own garment was better than the one provided by the host, which it wasn’t.

        Where does it say that?

          You’re right, I must have misremembered that. I totally thought that it was explicitly stated in this parable.

      Nah, it’s because he wasn’t even supposed to be there. He was not chosen

        Okay, then perhaps the guy in the OPs meme wasn’t chosen either

          Probably, I don’t understand the meme at all

            The meme is attempting to caricature Conservative’s idea of Jesus by alleging that the biblical Jesus would never put profit over people. But as the parables I mentioned show, that is in fact inaccurate and thus promotes a liberal caricature of Jesus who feeds people endlessly without ever asking for anything in return.
