Dear English learners, Do you guys ever find yourselves splitting hairs over something? If you've never heard the above idiom before, be no longer a stranger to it. Splitting hairs is used by us, native speakers, in situations we believe are arguing about trivial matters. Whenever you find yourself arguing with someone over something unimportant, you can say: "let's just stop splitting hairs here". Let's stop minding small business.

Cheers!

Hello native English speakers. The bears have been left wanting though, with earnings reports thus far in 2013 topping expectations.(original) Question: Is the original grammatically correct? I guess the original = Some people made the bears in bad conditions (such as lacking healthy eating or comfortable habitat ) , but the people who obtain large profits from the bears report that as far as 2013 is concerned ,these bears were in better conditions than what they (the bears) are expected. Is my guess correct according to the original? I don't know why the word "far" in the original is used there? and what is its meaning?
