@saddestrobots@mcc Yes, thank you. The cake cliché is one I legitimately didn't understand for years because the order of it implies a chronology that I saw no contradiction in. It's meant to mean, apparently, "Eating the cake while still having an uneaten cake,"
I legitimately thought the cliché referenced gluttony: "Look how high-and-mighty they are, buying a whole cake and then subsequently eating a whole cake alone!"
