“I want my cake and eat it too/also”.

Cake is perishable, so if you have your cake, rejoice. Eat your cake, leaves nothing.

If, it isn’t gone already? Should someone else find it!

While the fantasy sounds good, it is fleeting.

But if you come close, remember; “Don’t bite the hand that feeds you!”.
Cake and Eat it too

whatever the opposite of steak and blowjob day is, do that.
