the suffering olympics

The pointless endeavor of comparing different tragedies or histories of oppression to one another by attempting to quantify the suffering and/or injustice of each, so as to determine which tragedy was more tragic, or which oppressed peoples were more unjustly oppressed.

Jamie: Did you heard about the bombing in Boston?
Frank: The Arab world suffers violence like this every day as a result of US foreign policy.
Jamie: ...let's not play the Suffering Olympics.

--------

Alan: The fight for LGBT rights is this generation's great civil rights movement.
Rob: Their is no comparison between the struggles African-Americans faced and the struggle of the LGBT community.
Allison: Neither compare to the struggle women have faced.
Alan: Do we really need to play the Suffering Olympics?

School For Advanced Suffering

The name students of Special Forces Assessment and Selection 'lovingly' refer to it as. Three weeks of hell that includes: running, ruck marching, land navigation, and the dreaded Team Week.

Also the first step in soldiers' training to become US Army Special Forces soldiers, known as the Green Berets.

I'm so glad we somehow made it through the School For Advanced Suffering.

Wow! You did? Did you get selected there?

I did.

When you invest in the 4th industrial revolution and you dont fully understand what you bought. This is the time spent in uncertainty while waiting for the start of the Chainlink singularity.

Swing and No Linkers BTFO

All of your dreams will come true if you make it past the Howard's Suffering.

Human suffering

The result of amogus and the limitations of the primitive human mind

Mentally ill Amogus person A: When imposter is… amogus amogus amogus
Person trying to hold on to their sanity: Make it end make the suffering stop please god no. The amogus human suffering will never end I guess. The only true way to defeat it is to become one with the amogus the very thing I hate.
