it's really just emblematic of our society's current tendency to make mountains out of molehills. everything is either the best or the worst thing ever.

personally, my life got a lot better after I stopped stressing about doing the superlatives and comparison game. sometimes it's fine for things to be just okay.

Absolutely. That seems like it would be a source of constant anxiety. The corollary to this, as I've come to find, is just being completely ambivalent to how you compare to anyone, which sort of dismantles the extrinsic force of hierarchy to greater or lesser benefit.
