Changed perspective?

When I was a sophomore in high school, I hung around a bit with a senior who worked at a Baltimore college's radio station. He did a polka show on Saturdays, and a few times I went to the studio with him, running errands, gathering news or weather from the wire, sometimes reading it or some PSAs on the air. He had a pretty bleak outlook on life, and had two favorite sayings to express it:

"Life is a shit sandwich, and every day you take another bite."
"Life is an abject mediocrity."

I never agreed with his point of view.

I hope your perspective is different now, Neal.
