In the newcomers forum, Psimgus said, "good things? bad things? They're like the troughs and crests of a wave - you can't have one without the other, and we only define them as separate things self-referentially. It's really all just one big thing-ness."
While I'll admit that I mean "good" or "bad" from my own point of view, I still think I could appreciate that which I find "good" without having to ever experience "bad". True, I may take good for granted without bad, but I'd still rather not have any bad.
For example, let's look at phishing. I was so happy to get online banking. It made my life easier. It was "good". Now my email is full of fake "dear customer"
messages with links that look like my banks login page, but if you look at the IP address they are not my bank. This is bad. Neither the URL or the scammers are evil in and of their existence, but I still think stealing is bad, moral relativism aside.
Maybe the thingness is as the thingness is, but why does it have to be that way?
