Ben Wehrman on Nostr: It's actually insane how many random phrases throughout our culture were formed ...
It's actually insane how many random phrases throughout our culture were formed around junk food.
"Piece of cake"
"Sugarcoat"
"Eye candy"
"Icing on the cake"
"Honey" (referencing a lover)
Countless others...
I HEREBY PLEDGE:
From now on, I will do best to stop myself from using these phrases, and instead substitute a version that doesn't normalize poison in our day-to-day culture.
Officially kicking this off by changing "Icing on the cake" to "Butter on the steak"
Who's joining me?
(Pro tip: "steak" rhymes with "cake", so you've got an instant freebie that will cover many of them)
