[quote=@Inimical] The perspective that everything is being ruined perhaps comes from the fact that everything ends up being done/happening in a manner that is as opposite to your views as they can possibly be, making everything seem just a little worse than they may actually be? Just a thought. [/quote] It can, but that doesn't necessarily mean that the view that "everything is being ruined" is wrong. Logically, if everything is being ruined, it doesn't matter too much if things are a little worse.
