Want Some Cake?

Posted by on Jul 22, 2017 in Blog Posts

Of course you do. You want to bury your head in a giant pan of delicious frosting and sugary flour. You’re going to tear through each layer, gnawing and munching quickly away from sadness. Yes, cake brings happiness, but you know what doesn’t bring happiness – stupid phrases.

I am focusing my hatred on a simple phrase: Have your cake and eat it too. This is just a shit sentence. Think about it, everything is a progression of time, so when you say Have your cake, you mean you have your cake at that point, then when you say: eat it too – you obviously are going to eat it. Who buys cake and doesn’t eat it? The whole point of having cake is to eat it.

Now, what the people are looking for in this statement is to say you cannot both have the cake and also have eaten it. However, the above sentence doesn’t convey that point. It is a sloppy sentence and means nothing other than the basic reasons to get a cake, to eat it.

Therefore, in order to make us better people, I propose the following: To eat your cake and still have it. Yeah, it isn’t nearly as catchy but it actually makes sense.  Theo out!
