  1. Once upon a time, in a vineyard, there lived a fox who was very hungry. He spotted a bunch of grapes hanging from a high branch and decided to get them. However, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't reach the grapes.
  2. Frustrated, the fox decided to give up and left, muttering, "Those grapes were probably sour anyway."
  3. This story illustrates the psychological phenomenon known as "sour grapes," where people deny wanting something they can't have.
