If you look at Adrian's last post it's pretty clear he thinks of punishment as something negative!

It's important to respect the ideas and values of weird, alien, europeanish cultures.
You gotta remember these people were raised with stuff like croissants and humiliating little coffee cups that nobody can drink from without looking silly.
Plus they got a lot of old buildings and statues and cheese and weird little cars and art and shit like that. Its made em all sensitive, so they like burst into song at the sight of a flock of swallows or start sobbing uncontrollably when they see some kid with a balloon.

I really have to hand it to em for keeping it together as good as they do, what with what passes for normal over there.
