“Between two evils, I always pick the one I never tried before.”

Simplified Meaning:
When someone is faced with two bad choices, they might choose the option they haven't experienced yet. Imagine you have two tasks you don't like: cleaning the bathroom or doing a difficult puzzle. If you've cleaned the bathroom many times but never tried the puzzle, you might choose to do the puzzle just for a change. This way, at least you get to learn something new or see if the other option is slightly better. Sometimes, trying different things, even if they are not pleasant, can make life more interesting and help you grow. So when you face two bad choices, you might find it better to try the one that's new to you, as it could turn out to be less bad or teach you something different.
