This is in response to people who engage in that "My suffering is worse than your suffering," game. It's a bullshit pissing contest. Quoth I:

"I hate that suffering competitiveness! The only way to win that competition is to be the biggest loser. Nobody gets anything out of it, they just get to wallow in self-pity. And what does that get you? Congratulations! Your hardships are the hardest. You win. Have a cookie.
Sheesh."

My angst of suffering competitiveness is greater than yours! I hardly sleep and can barely eat. My nerves are shot. My stomach is a mess. I have a headache that never stops. Can people please stop comparing suffering because I am the one that suffers from it most!

(munches on cookie... the first food I've had for days!)

But seriously, you have a good point. People do play this game.

Yeah, we'll screw that! I'M in constant pain! I'm always exhausted! My nerves are on fire! My digestive system is sensitive! My skin is sensitive! I need pity, dammit! Nyah!
*steals cookie*

Oh, the game is fun when it's being mocked!
