Title: ..."on steroids"
Post by: Kegdrainer on May 28, 2009, 07:57:24 PM

WHy is it that the media bashes steroids so vehemently while at the same time the same news programs will refer to something as "[whatever thing] ON STEROIDS" to describe something that is bigger, better, faster, and overall more preferred to the plain old original version of [whatever thing]?

In fact, if you google "on steroids" only 3 of the first ten links (excluding image search) refer to actual steroids and the other seven use the term on steroids as a descriptor.  Even Obama's white house staff has been referred to as the West Wing on Steroids.

Because "on PED" sounds a little gay.
