最討人嫌科技產品使用習慣?
Touching someone's computer screen
觸摸別人的電腦屏幕
This one is particularly close to my heart. If you’re looking over my shoulder at my computer screen and you want to point something out to me, you're more than welcome to use your finger to point to it. But you better pray you don't actually touch that monitor, because I will ruin you.
這一條我真的深有感觸。如果你恰好站在我背后看著我的電腦屏幕,而你又想指出上面的什么東西,我很歡迎你把它指出來。但你可千萬不要碰到我的電腦屏,否則我會好好收拾你一頓。
Pulling out your phone while having a one-on-one conversation
一對一聊天時掏出手機看
I get it—not every conversation you have in life is going to be a riveting exchange of ideas. In fact, most of them will probably be so mindlessly awkward you'll try to chew through your own tongue just to keep from having to continue speaking.
我明白,不是沒段對話都是引人入勝的思想碰撞。事實上大多數對話都無腦到讓人尷尬,以至于你都不得不想咬斷自己的舌頭來停止講話。
