It was a joke, and I do have a dry sense of humour.

However, I do admit the third party could be equine.

Much more things are underrated than we appreciate. We're hard wired to look for things that aren't working properly. If something isn't working well or not working at all we spot it far quicker than something running seamlessly. And we tend to be ungrateful for things we haven't noticed.

Appreciation
Gratitude

These are both underrated.

Your own bed. Gets abused all year. Underrated all year. You go on holiday come back and that first night back you know you've missed it. You always miss your bed.
