Whose Cake can you Eat?
I’ve never much cared for the idiom “You can’t have your cake and eat it (too).” Wikipedia tells us the expression is older, even, than spelling. The original version is actually the reverse of how it’s used today and makes much more sense, since it properly orders events chronologically. Essentially, the lesson is that once you eat your cake, you can’t have it anymore. One could argue that you don’t actually have the cake until you eat it. Personally, I’m just going to do as George Carlin suggested and eat someone else’s cake.
