Commencement advice from P. J. O'Rourke
P. J. O'Rourke weighs in with Fairness, idealism, and other atrocities. My favorite passage is this:
Well, I am here to advocate for unfairness. I've got a 10-year-old at home. She's always saying, "That's not fair." When she says this, I say, "Honey, you're cute. That's not fair. Your family is pretty well off. That's not fair. You were born in America. That's not fair. Darling, you had better pray to God that things don't start getting fair for you."
