What's the point of a cake if they can't eat it?

You can eat it, but then you don't have it.

Why would I want even more cake after I just ate some? That just seems unhealthy.

That saying is generally for people who wish to keep cake as a trophy, but cant wait to enjoy eating it too.

In this case the point being brutal working hours and affluence don't go hand in hand.

True enlightenment: realizing that the cake is a lie.

There is no cake. Or spoon.

These kind of threads make me feel like the old secret society handshakes have been replaced by mystic level mastery of memes.

So say we all.

Think of it as evolution in action.
