zero tolerance

Authoritarian rule system whereby breaking of the rules is taken very seriously and punishment is overly severe to get the message through.

The dictator took a stance of zero tolerance on ideaology that caused him any disrepute, and so gave his political opponents acid baths.

kick a man when he's down

(v.) To kick a man when he's down is to attack at the persons weakest moment. It defies the gentlemanly code of ethics, and does detract from reputation. Used literally or figuratively, it still has pretty much the same meaning.

I never kick a man when he'd down; stamping on his head is easier!

bull market

Where people expect financial investments to rapidly increase, like in the economic boom of the eighties. It is so called, because masses of first-time investors rush head-first into the markets with thier money, expecting to amass riches beyond belief.

Japan's 1980's bull market was so good that, in 1989, Japan was expected to overtake the United states as the world's richest economy. The reccession of the 90's prevented this.


Today, it is just recovering from a bear market

Friday the 13th

The number 13 has long been assocciated with unfortunate incidents. This stems from roman empire rule, and christianity. Pirates considered Friday to be the most unlucky day of the week. At least once a year the two coincide. This is said to be the most unlucky day of the year, but only if you happen to live in Crystal Lake, where Jason Vorhees may murder you.

Friday the 13th? My arse.
