That would imply that it is unfair equally to everyone. The person who posted that is a moron.
Worst quote.
@Lehsyrus is correct. Not only was that guy incorrectly thinking that life is unfair to everyone in the same way, the point he tries to make is in itself incorrect. Fairness is mostly situational and is not always comparative or relative.
To put it simply, if life were to be unfair in a particular way to everyone (say we all eventually get shot), that does not make the action (being shot) a positive or fair action. If nobody has done anything to warrant receiving such a negative action against them then that is unfair. If someone were to do a misdeed before being shot than that will be viewed as fair. Not to mention all the other factors like different amounts of "fairness", some people seemingly benefiting entirely from life rather than life being unfair.
I think the saying has been whored to death. All of a sudden people think that life is unfair simply because some people are "rich" whilst others are not. Many people are rich because life presented them with opportunity and they seized that opportunity and benefited from it (this is fair) whereas others will pass up that opportunity (this is also fair). They also forget that life may be "unfair" to people born into wealth or prosperity. I would say that life is unfair to them as well as they have not done anything to warrant such wealth. Think about it, you wouldn't say life is fair for them, it would be unfair.
TL;DR too many people don't know the meaning of unfair.

Commandment 11 or Newton's 4th Law (whatever you prefer): LIFE IS NOT FAIR.
facebook boy's argument is invalid
Here are the quotes I have saved as my favourites
"The Intention of Ones Heart Defines Their Relationship"
"Inspre.Belive.Achieve"
"Being Real, Isn't Internal, It's External, Every State's Got a Hood, Every Hood Represents The Same Mentallity, But The Rules Are Different"
"Sit Your Five Dollar Ass Down Before I Make Change!"
"Distance is not for the fearful, it is for the bold. It's for those who are willing to spend a lot of time alone in exchange for a little time with the one they love. It's for those knowing a good thing when they see it, even if they don't see it nearly enough..."
"The past can hurt, but you can either run from it or learn from it"
"Man sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived.”
