Any good author writes because they want their ideas or purposed to be known to others. Their works get published, and other read them. They hope that it holds a lasting impression or makes their readers think. No one wants their work to be read and pushed aside with a, "on to the next one" attitude.
Sedaris made his purpose clear, and stable throughout. But he chose to express his purpose in a unique way. By giving us examples, or scenarios in every day life and situations. Judgement is strong in life, but Sedaris also shows us that judgement is a vicious cycle. We are judging other because of their judgement towards someone else.. Judgement is an impulse action, we do it quickly and most times without regret.
Sedaris adds little bits of what is going on in the world to help make it more relatable to us as readers. I think this is beneficial and makes more people continue to read on, because they understand.
