Parody vs. Satire
2
The Difference Between the Two
Parody Parody makes fun of another work by imitating some aspect of it. Parody is meant for mocking and does not contain anything serious. Parody is pure entertainment and nothing else. Parody does not intend to bring about societal change. Parody can make fun of literature, film, advertising, popular culture, etc.

The Difference Between the Two
Satire Satire ridicules the shortcomings of people or institutions in an attempt to bring about a change. Satire makes a serious point, usually through humor, while attacking some aspect of society. Satire often uses irony and exaggeration to make its point. Satire can sometimes use parody to make a point (but not all parodies are satire!)
