查资料偶尔会在评论区看到好玩的句子,有一些顺手记了下来。

*

I usually do programming underwater, so nobody can see me cry.

感觉这是万能句式,把和 underwater 没半毛钱关系的 do programming 随便换成什么都行,荒谬搞笑心酸,瞬间齐聚。

*

Most people aren’t even perfect in their native language but for some reason, we think we should be perfect in another one.

惭愧,正是在下。

这种算不算妄念呢?我也不知。

但我以为可以明确一条:

以语言文字为业的,如果中文母语尚且步履蹒跚、坑坑洼洼,再说怎样追求英文善美,那就牵强,算妄念。

*

视频 Steve Jobs introduces iPhone in 2007 底下有句评论:

This was Nokia’s funeral.

当时就想起了《三体》那一句:毁灭你,与你何干。

*

视频 15 Books Bill Gates Thinks Everyone Should Read 底下评论:

The superrich are busy searching knowledge while average people are busy spending their time on watching TV.

想到斯坦诺维奇(1993)在 What Reading Does for the Mind 一文说,读书这事儿有个马太效应:读得越多的人,读得越好,然后读得越多,良性循环,反之亦然。

他概括为 rich-get-richer and poor-get-poorer effects。

这结论看得我动心骇目,不可久视。

所谓君子立常志,小人常立志,我今天再次立志,看完 The Queen’s Gambit,我就真的退订 Netflix,然后洗心革面,好好读书。
