because it's good for you

The ultimate b**ls**t reason that someone in authority impatiently tells you to forcibly pressure you to consume/do something you detest, such as insipidly chomp through a huge bowl of oatmeal, choke down hard/sticky/bitter medicine-pills/powder/syrup, bake in the sun for extended periods, attend school/church, meet/interact with someone whom you fear/dislike, or any other acutely-disagreeable action of dubious --- and still largely unproven, in many cases --- effectiveness or benefit.
Using the age-old "because it's good for you" reasoning to convince someone to perform one or more disagreeable tasks --- especially if you cannot be totally certain that said procedure actually is indeed necessary/appropriate/effective for that particular person, and in those particular circumstances --- has always been an unwise and hurtful procedure; not only may it needlessly subject the "sufferer" to untold misery, but it also can often cause the agonized "victim" to totally turn away from and obsessively do the exact opposite of said practices/procedures (such as entirely shunning "health foods" like vegetables in favor of junk foods like chips and soda, or tempestuously refusing to hear or discuss anything even remotely alluding to religion) just as soon as he gets old enough to begin making his own decisions, and cause him to live an exceedingly unhealthy and "intellectually isolated" lifestyle. Plus it is an especially tragic mistake in current times, when there now exist so many far-more-palatable alternatives to the "basic 'n' boring" past methods of carrying out said "necessary tortures", such as using fun educational videos instead of having to tediously bury one's nose in a dusty book, or administering pleasant-flavored herbal/medicinal beverages instead of following a horridly "strict 'n' mundane" Puritan-type diet.

Hym "No. The answer is not 'not good enough for you,' bitch. It's the ultimate answer. It's good enough for everyone."

There ain't anything good about any of you

No. Fuck you you panhandling piece of shit. I think we need to hire that guy the strangled Jordan Neely to death to go door to door and finish off the rest of the internet beggars.
Hym "Really. Imagine if the streets were littered with people asking for money. But not just acting from money but also insisting afterwards that they aren't some street beggar but instead are cool and deserve the things they have but then guy drunk and record themselves crying like a bitch because they know they do not. Just fucking littered with em. You would not like these people. If they weren't on the phone you would not actually like these people. There ain't anything good about any of you. I'm still waiting to see it. I don't see it."
