life is what you make it

A cliche of debatable validity.

On one side, this phrase may be seen to be reassuring, allowing a person to accept the ills of their life, whatever those might be, with grace, knowing that with effort, or wisdom, those ills can be surmounted, or even changed into something positive.

On the other side, this meaning can be seen to be irrelevant; the phrase ultimately becomes empty, asking a person to acquiesce to, in the form of the acceptance of "the good with the bad", the ill of the modern world in any or all of its forms.

life-lard

A lifeguard that simply sits around on their lard-ass while at work and does not pay any real attention to the swimmers. Employed officially as lifeguards, such folks seem to be completely oblivious and disconnected from their job - which is to guard and protect lives. Life-lards appear to care very little or nothing at all for the lives that they are supposedly guarding.
Life-lards tend to avoid looking at the pool as much as possible. Instead, they hide out in the office, stare into space, and/or talk incessantly to each other. Life-lards also tend to send or read text messages, as a means of avoiding looking at the pool.
