Get the The Worser mug.A private Ohio liberal arts college known for its Independent Study program and isolated location in the midst of farms, Amish people, cows, and trees that make more money than the students due to an unusual tree endowment by one of the alumni.
Now that I have majored in Philosophy with a minor in Studio Art at the College of Wooster, I doubt I will be employable.

Get the The College of Wooster mug.when you're telling someone about a problem you're having, and they respond by telling you about how your life is fine because THEIR life is much worse for various reasons.
sarah couldn't ever talk to catie about her problems because she would always plat the my-life-is-worse game.
Sarah: my mother made me clean my entire house yesterday.
Catie: oh yeah? well my mother made me clean the whole house, and then mow the lawn.

Get the the my-life-is-worse game mug.A fallacy that defends a flawed position by comparing it to even worse alternatives, without ever addressing the flaws themselves. "Sure, our healthcare system is broken, but at least it's not as bad as Country X." The fallacy doesn't solve the problem; it just points to someone else's greater problems as a reason to accept one's own. This is the logical skeleton of the "lesser evil" argument, of "it could be worse," of every defense of the status quo that never actually defends the status quo—it just points to something worse. The fallacy ignores that the existence of worse alternatives does not make a bad alternative good, and that the goal should be improvement, not comparison. It's the favorite fallacy of those who benefit from things staying exactly as they are.
Fallacy of the Relative Exception (Fallacy of "All Other Alternatives Are Worse") Example: "She pointed out the corruption, the inequality, the failing infrastructure. He responded with the Fallacy of the Relative Exception: 'But look at Country Y—they have it so much worse.' The problems she listed remained unaddressed, unsolved, untouched. The existence of somewhere worse was supposed to make her somewhere better. It didn't."

Relationships could get a bit tricky over the next few days, so promise yourself that no matter what loved ones might say you won’t overreact and make things worse than they need to be. Smile serenely and pretend that nothing bothers you in the slightest.
