Question 1: What are you thinking about?
The proper answer to this, of course, is: “I’m sorry if I’ve been pensive, dear. I was just reflecting on what a warm, wonderful, thoughtful, caring, intelligent woman you are, and how lucky I am to have met you.”
This response obviously bears no resemblance to the true answer, which most likely is one of the following:
a. Baseball.
b. Football.
c. How fat you are.
d. How much prettier she is than you.
e. How I would spend the insurance money if you died.
(Perhaps the best response to this question was offered by Al Bundy, who once told Peg, “If I wanted you to know what I was thinking, I would be talking to you!”)
問題一:你在想什么?
合適的回答當然是:“親愛的真不好意思,前面沒有注意聽你說話。我在想自己能夠遇到這么一個熱心體貼、善解人意、溫柔善良、聰明伶俐的女人是多么的幸運啊!”
這個回答很顯然一點都不靠譜,實情往往是:
a.棒球
b.足球
c.你有多胖
d.她比你漂亮多少
e.如果你死了,我要怎么花保險理賠金
(也許最佳的回答是Al Bundy告訴Peg的那句:“如果我想讓你知道我在想什么,我就會對你說了啊!”)
