I fucking hate this phrase. Simply put, if you're looking for a cure, you've already passed the prevention phase. Doesn't matter what this is in reference to, its the sheer stupidity of the saying itself that bothers me. The best cure for (insert ailment, problem, etc) is prevention....no....that's wrong. You know why its wrong? Because prevention cannot be a cure. By definition, you cannot cure something that isn't already infected. If you prevent it, there's nothing to cure.
Stop using this phrase.
