That's only half the saying. It is used most of the time as if the full thing is "a few bad apples aren't a problem because the rest are fine" rather than the real thing "a few bad apples spoil the lot."
But that isn't the context that phrase is normally used in. That phrase is more like a euphemism for "I'm an asshole, but want it to sound like I'm not"
Yes, that's why if you don't have cancer it is dangerous (to the quarters it family members). If you do have cancer, you are going from having cancer to a slightly higher than average risk of a different cancer in the future. It's worth getting treated.
I was rear ended while waiting to make a left turn on a rural highway. We got out and look at the car behind us. The windshield is completely splattered in red. It was two guys eating chips and a bowl of salsa.
I was just in Japan a couple weeks ago. Kyoto was incredibly crowded at the tourist spots, but it was the peak of cherry blossoms so I expected it to be crowded. I didn't meet a single unfriendly person while we were there, it's definitely worth it.
Onomatopoeia, it's a fun word on it's own, but I love the while idea of it. Especially in other languages, like the million different words for dog barks.
I don't understand why anyone would argue against a garden. Should my yard just be grass? Why shouldn't I plant something I can eat in it? It doesn't matter if it's less efficient than industrial farming, it's basically unused land to start with.
I've only heard this said by Indian people, so I've been assuming that when I see it written online it's Indians. Per that link it looks like all over the US it's at least occasionally used. That's crazy, and I can't stand it; hopefully this doesn't become standard.
If it's Wednesday, "Friday" or "this Friday" would describe the day in 2 days. "Next Friday" would be 9 days away. I think it's clear and have never had an issue with people not knowing which day is being discussed. Maybe people around here are more consistent about it than other areas?
You are describing a put option, a contract to sell the stock at the end date for whatever price is in the contract. The opposite is a call option, a contract to buy the stock at the set price.
Shorting and puts are a bit different. To short a stock, you borrow the shares and sell them today, then need to give back shares at a later date to the person you borrowed them from.
