Things could be worse so that means you can't be unhappy

[Tømpson]

This has always pissed me off, people saying that things could always be worse. Say that to starving children in africa, tell that to abuse victims. Unhappy is unhappy, stop being loving dumb.

it's not supposed to make you feel happy, it's supposed to make you feel better that something ten times worse didn't happen. your car breaks down: at least you didn't crash into a lake and drown.
your dad dies: at least you still have the rest of your family
zombie apocalypse: at least you're not one of the zombies

[Tømpson]

It doesn't make anyone feel better, your car still crashed, you still got your eyes gouged out. But what I'm saying is if something bad happens to you another person comments that your situation isn't bad because worse things have happened.

it's not supposed to make you feel better, it's supposed to make you feel thankful different stuff didn't happen.

How are you supposed to feel thankful when you've just been trivialized

[Tømpson]

it's not supposed to make you feel happy, it's supposed to make you feel better

it's not supposed to make you feel better, it's supposed to make you feel thankful different stuff didn't happen.

Well, what is it then

[fred da kiko]

better as in not as bad as you were before. better is relative. stop being a bitch about my wording.

You are hypocritical and when I point that out you blame your wording and call me a bitch.
