I realized in college that the expression, "An apple a day keeps the doctor away" was also misunderstood by some of my classmates.
Me - "Doctors are scared of apples that if you give one to them, they'll run away."
Rae - "Doctors like apples so much that if you give one to them, they'll skip work."
Peter Sia - "Kids are scared of doctors. Bribe an apple to the doctor when you're at the hospital and he'll leave you alone."
