People use that as a comforting statement. Imagine your wife cheated on you with the mailman. A friend says "it could be worse, there are starving children in third world countries". So not only are you to think about your wife getting plowed by a man in a funny hat, but you also get to feel bad about all the starving children in the world. Rad.
