This is actually a personal statement for medical school, however it is super unique and might give you some ideas. Best of luck!

Sarcasm right? Because that essay was a joke.

He's saying the essay was written as a joke, not that it was a joke of an essay.
In the absence of a "unique" life it is not possible to write a "unique" personal statement.
Personal statements are just that: they should be personal. They should give the adcoms a glimpse of the kind of person you are. They should offer insight into why you have made the decisions you've made.
Asking someone for a unique idea for a personal statement will most likely not benefit you. Adcoms will read it and get a picture of a certain kind of person, and you will likely not mesh with that vision if you hadn't come up with the idea yourself. Don't overthink your personal statement, just make it sound like you. If you are unique or funny, it will come out unique or funny.

Its satire man... it makes fun of all the med/dent school applicants and how they are all trying to fit the mold. It also makes fun of the system and how it almost forces people to be altruistic, which in that process, defeats true altruism.
Exactly. Also, this essay follows the cookie-cutter personal statement, but takes it to an absurd level.
Here's how not to write a personal statement, written by the same person who wrote that funny personal statement on your original link.
