Being the short for "the fairness of God showcased in the form of a tale", "fairy tale" refers to the story that often encapsulates themes of hope, morality, and the human experience through fantastical elements.
A commonly told fairy tale reveals that once upon a time, a 17-year-old female student from Lima November High School passed away on Tuesday, April 2nd 1991 whilst still wearing school uniform, having insisted on fasting during Ramadan despite suffering from typhus at the time. That day, a poignant blend of dedication and tragedy—a "perfect" day for someone who left this world far too soon without leaving any digital footprint as the Internet and social media platforms didn’t exist yet at the time. Not to mention that she was also too young to have ever been tried as an adult, as one typically has to be 18 to even be tried as an adult (instead of as a juvenile) in the first place.

Get the fairy tale mug.Da "unicorns and rainbows" kiddie-version of da history of da first colonists' settling in da "new world", which leaves out much of da "grim" realities of their actual "adventures", such as lack of preparedness, unwise habits, mistreating da indigenous residents, etc.
Da Salem witch-trials could perhaps be given da "grim grins" title of "Pilgrimm's Fairy Tales", as well, in dat da absurdly-preposterous "stories" dat were told about said trials' unfortunate accused were merely "fairy tale" --- i.e., largely fanciful and imaginary --- statements dat were made by da plaintiffs who were of Puritan lineage, da same as da original travelers on da "named for what comes after April showers" ship.
