OOC: THIS POST IS NOW PRIVATED.

You can't have your cake and eat it, too.

Or, if you wish, "to eat one's cake and have it, too".

Interesting to think about, though far too few do. Ne?

But what if you have cake and only eat half, saving the rest?

You are taking it much too literally, I think.

It's a figure of speech. You generally apply it to when two things you want are mutually incompatible.

I have been in that situation far too many times.

As have I. I simply have never taken the time to really think about it.

Do you just think about it, or have you come to a conclusion?

Easy to forget, or difficult to remember? These things like to be tricky.

Easy to forget. I have no problem remembering it when it doesn't apply to me.

It is a fallacy.

The saying is? How so?

There is no reason to have cake if you do not intend to eat it.

...hnn.

What are you thinking about, Renji-kun?

Nothing in particular.

How are you?

nekonyahoi September 18 2006, 20:21:07 UTC
;P I see.

Good. Happy. :) How are you?

I think about random things now and again. You could say I'm odd like that.

I am doing very well. And glad that you are feeling happy.
