Please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I saw this I started getting anxious. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like "what the fuck" and "is he ok". I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this image. Now there is a whole train of men anxious because of this one image. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW.

have your cake and eat it too

Alone it sounds normal but doesnt make sense in context because its supposed to be

eat your cake and have it too

Because the idiom is supposed to mean that you can't eat it and somehow still have it. The first implies you got cake and then were unable to eat it which doesnt make sense because thats literally the point of cake

Wikipedia:

you cannot enjoy two incompatible things at the same time; once you eat the cake, you no longer have it. It highlights the idea of trade-offs or making choices in life.

Apparently have is supposed to be synonymous with "keep" but language has evolved

Is it really pedantry if the phrase makes no sense with the incorrect order

Its like "I could care less" - so you do care? Start making sense and I'll understand you. Words have meaning god damn it.

Trump gave a speech at Fort Bragg (renamed back to Bragg after a WWII paratrooper with the same last name as the original namesake, a confederate general). He complained about people flying flags for other countries. He also said that we have contempt for the flag, that anyone who burns one should go to jail for a year

Meanwhile flag code says that a flag which touches the ground should be burned and they proudly fly confederate and nazi flags

Besides that, NASA wasn't the one that funded the research behind the pen, they bought the completed pens. The expenses for the research were funded by Fisher

Look at the NYTs coverage of the genocide in gaza ("boohoo poor israel, self defense") and general media coverage Bernie Sanders (doesnt exist until he has no chance of winning something, pretending hes more outspoken now even though he's been saying the same thing for the last 60 years)
