Fair"
Of pleasing appearance, especially because of a pure or fresh quality; comely.

Free of clouds or storms; clear and sunny: fair skies.
4. Free of blemishes or stains; clean and pure: one's fair name.
5. Promising; likely: We're in a fair way to succeed.
6.
a. Having or exhibiting a disposition that is free of favoritism or bias; impartial: a fair mediator.
b. Just to all parties; equitable: a compromise that is fair to both factions.
7. Being in accordance with relative merit or significance: She wanted to receive her fair share of the proceeds.


The saying is crap, I don't use it anymore, its sounds like something Fox would say, while destroying climate change.



No offense, just don't use it without thinking on what the words mean.


Its like 'all things being equal'....... is a shit statement.
