cool, my card metaphor would be, how many good hands are there in poker? there are 10.

and most everyone disregarded the last two, and only plays if they have two pair or higher, so only 8 are considered worthwhile to have.

everyone is chasing the same thing, to have one of the higher ranked hands so that they can win.

i'm glad you look at a dirty diaper and think it's a beautiful rainbow, but most of us just think it's shit and we toss it in the trash. and we only see a real rainbow maybe once or twice a year or less.

i have lived my life entirely shocked at how similar and robotic most folks live their lives. very few people are unique or interesting, most are just a series of cliches and can only express themselves in cliches because they have never had a critical or original thought in their entire life.
