the water that hardens the egg softens the potato

The water that hardens the egg softens the potato is a Russian saying that means everyone reacts to stressful circumstances differently. It is often used in the context of trauma.
"Rachel's mom just died and a week later she's back to school. Meanwhile, I'm strugling to get out of bed, just because my hamster died. I feel so shitty."

"Dude, don't beat yourself up about it. The water that hardens the egg softens the potato. "

potato

A poorly made MUGEN fighter typically characterized by its low damage output, poor AI, and inability to use its moves (or if they use them, they tend to use the wrong ones). In the rare event it does use a super move, it is either just as weak as their regular attacks or does absurdly high damage without any explanation. May also be poorly animated, use badly ripped sprites, and/or have ugly colors.
Viewer: These potatoes are boring. They're just weakly punching each other and jumping around like idiots.
