Fairness is an illusion we create to make ourselves feel better about the onslaught of crap we face every day. It's a construct we use to make sense of things, a crutch we use to function as a society. Fairness isn't really a thing.
The fact is, life isn't fair. It simply is.
And the sooner you realize it, the sooner you stop comparing yourself to your high school classmates and your neighbors. The less you sit around feeling like you got the short straw.
You still got a fucking straw. Now get out there and make the most of it, huh?
But I want a bendy straw! :]
