No, Not Really.

Pretty Boy


So I was watching Joel Osteen the other day, as I so often do when I'm down. He was preaching about trash TV. "If you fill yourself with these shows, these words, then you will begin so speak like that. We've all heard the saying 'you will become what you eat,' and it applies here, too."

NO.

When you eat a crunchberry, you remain a person. You do not in fact become a crunchberry. The phrase goes "you are what you eat," which we all know refers to the fact that we digest the things we eat and that becomes the things from which our bodies are made. So yes, you are what you eat, though you do not become it. Quit twisting popular phrases in order to connect with people, who seem to believe anything that is conjured up behind your pearly whites, Joel. When Joel used that common phrase, people immediately make a connection between that popular belief, and whatever he says next. Don't believe the pearly whites and their mangled allegories. Just leave me to my Gauntlet II.

Danny, my friend and fellow follower of truth, we all know that an apple a day will make you smarter than a doctor. All you need to do is keep your chin to the grindstone and then someday, with enough apples, you'll understand that sometimes you need to break a few eggs after you eat an omelette. Until we meet again for the first time, keep fighting good in fights,
J.O.
