10. You can rarely, if ever, please, placate, change, or mollify an asshole. The best thing you can do is stay away from every one you encounter. Being an asshole is a contagious disease. The more time you spend around one, the more likely you are to catch it and become one too.
不可能取悅、平息或改造一個混蛋。你能做的最好方式,是和他們敬而遠之。變成混蛋也能傳染,你和他們呆的時間越長,你也越有可能染上混蛋的習氣或者你就成為混蛋。
