Go figure.
想想看
But I got a little bad news for you folks. I got some bad news.
我這里也有些壞消息想對你們說，我有些壞消息
This isn't for the one in four. This is for the four in four.
比例不是四分之一，而是四分之四
We are not equipped for the 21st century.
我們還沒準(zhǔn)備好過21世紀(jì)
Evolution did not prepare us for this.
進(jìn)化并沒有幫我們做好準(zhǔn)備，
We just don't have the bandwidth, and for people who say, oh, they're having a nice day,
我們沒有相關(guān)的連接，對于那些人說他們過了美好的一天
they're perfectly fine, they're more insane than the rest of us.
說他們過得非常好，他們比我們其他人還要瘋狂
Because I'll show you where there might be a few glitches in evolution.
因?yàn)槲視o你們看哪里會有些進(jìn)化的故障，
Okay, let me just explain this to you.
好，讓我解釋給你們聽
When we were ancient man a millions of years ago,
當(dāng)我們是古人的時(shí)候，幾百萬年以前，
and we suddenly felt threatened by a predator, okay?
我們突然受到捕食者的威脅，好嗎？
We would...Thank you. I drew these myself.
我們會，謝謝，我自己畫的
Thank you very much. Thank you. Thank you.
非常感謝，謝謝，謝謝
Thank you. Anyway, we would fill up with our own adrenaline and our own cortisol,
謝謝，不管怎么說，我們會激增自己的腎上腺素和提脂醇，
and then we'd kill or be killed,
然后我們會展開殺戮或被殺
we'd eat or we'd be eaten, and then suddenly we'd de-fuel, and we'd go back to normal. Okay.
我們會進(jìn)食或被食，我們會瞬間發(fā)泄出這些化學(xué)物質(zhì)，然后我們回到正常，好的
So the problem is, nowadays, with modern man
問題是，現(xiàn)在的現(xiàn)代人
when we feel in danger, we still fill up with our own chemical
當(dāng)我們感到危險(xiǎn)時(shí)，我們依然激增身體的化學(xué)物質(zhì)
but because we can't kill traffic wardens or eat estate agents,
但因?yàn)槲覀儾荒軞⒌艚煌ü苤茊T或吃掉地產(chǎn)經(jīng)紀(jì)人，
the fuel just stays in our body over and over,
這些物質(zhì)一直在我們的身體里面反反復(fù)復(fù)地，
so we're in a constant state of alarm, a constant state.
所以我們一直處在持續(xù)警惕的狀態(tài)，一個(gè)持續(xù)的狀態(tài)，
And here's another thing that happened.
然后發(fā)生了另一件事
About 150,000 years ago, when language came online,
大概15萬年前，語言開始形成
we started to put words to this constant emergency,
我們開始把這種持續(xù)警惕的狀態(tài)用語言表達(dá)出來
so it wasn't just, "Oh my God, there's a saber-toothed tiger,"
不止是 “我的天啊，有只劍齒虎”
which could be, it was suddenly, "Oh my God, I didn't send the email. Oh my God, my thighs are too fat.
它可以突然是 “我的天，我沒發(fā)郵件，我的天，我的大腿好粗
Oh my God, everybody can see I'm stupid. I didn't get invited to the Christmas party!"
我的天啊，每個(gè)人都知道我犯蠢了，我沒被邀請去圣誕派對！”
So you've got this nagging loop tape that goes over and over again that drives you insane,
你不停地有這嘮叨的卷帶放著一遍又一遍地把你逼瘋了，
so, you see what the problem is?
那么，你看到問題所在了嗎，
What once made you safe now drives you insane.
曾經(jīng)讓你感到安全的東西，現(xiàn)在正把你逼瘋
I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but somebody has to be.
我很抱歉做了壞消息的信者，但有人得告訴你
Your pets are happier than you are.
你的寵物比你更快樂
So kitty cat, meow, happy happy happy, human beings, screwed.
小貓咪，喵，快樂快樂快樂，人類，完蛋了
Completely and utterly -- so, screwed.
完完全全，徹徹底底地，完蛋了
But my point is, if we don't talk about this stuff,
我認(rèn)為，如果我們不談?wù)撨@些問題
and we don't learn how to deal with our lives,
如果我們不學(xué)會處理我們的生活，
it's not going to be one in four.
那就不會再是四個(gè)中一個(gè)有問題，
It's going to be four in four who are really, really going to get ill in the upstairs department.
而是四個(gè)里面全都有問題，他們真的會生病住進(jìn)高層病房
And while we're at it, can we please stop the stigma?
如果真的發(fā)生了，我們可不可以不再冠以污名
Thank you.
謝謝
