“What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” is the stupidest quote anyone has ever come up with. Not only is it a total lie, but it doesn’t make any sense at all. Right now I can think up an easy half-a-dozen things that wouldn’t kill you and would make you much weaker than you were before. For example, here are some things that fit into that catagory:

• Paraplegic
• Quadriplegic (even worse than above)
• Blind
• Deaf
• Loss of limb(s)
• Permanent numbness in any area of the body.
• Muscle Loss

That’s seven perfectly legit examples right there, and I was just getting on a roll. I seriously think that whoever came up with such a homo erectus way of thinking should have his right of free speech taken away. Really, the only thing that a non-mortal injury causes is pain and suffereing, which is a lose-lose in my books.

Starting now, anyone that says the aforementioned phrase should be hit with this piece of knowledge:

“What doesn’t kill you really hurts.”
