On challenging arrogance

Yes, you’re better than me. Now pass the toilet paper.

Oh, I get it. You’re like that because you deserve to be. Right. I’m a lesser being, inconsequential, and in your way. It is clear to all that the world does, indeed, revolve around you. Good thing, too. After all, you’re the best, the smartest, the richest, the most suave. I’m just a loser, a nincompoop, a peon, a slob. But we both need to shit, don’t we? Please pass the toilet paper. But I can win this game. Your pomposity teaches me to be approachable. Your haughtiness reminds me to be humble. Your disdain helps me feel - and understand - the pain you must feel. I learn from those who believe they are above me.
