When I was a child, Reading Rainbow was my jam - and James Stevenson's Could Be Worse! was one of my very favorite books from the show. In it, a grandfather spins a wild tale of misadventures, from an encounter with an abominable snowman to being chased by a blob of preserves, to make his grandchildren feel better about their current problems. On a day when I am feeling down in the dumps and being, I'm sure, insufferably whiny, I thought it prudent to make my own version of ways things COULD BE WORSE!
I could be on an airplane next to a fat dude with no pants:
That would be worse.
I could be employed as an elephant poop collector:
That would be worse.
I could still have my unibrow:
That would be WAY worse. That thing was awful.
I could be Tyler Clippard. EMBARASSING!
Oof.
Y'all got any other ways things could be worse? Share them in the comments, please!
