意外的對手 An Unexpected Rival
昨晚,一位一百三十多公斤重的健美選手徹夜難眠,因為有隻蚊子整晚在他耳邊不停嗡鳴。很難想像這麼一隻看似無足輕重的小生物,竟會讓比牠巨大且強壯百倍的男人崩潰、無法正常過活。
離這位健美先生住處大約5公里外,有個男人拒絕跟一個女人上床。她幾乎十全十美,但他拒絕的理由,只因為她門牙間卡了一粒胡椒。
這兩件事同時發生,彼此具有可類比之處。因為這位女士全部的優雅美貌;以及那位健美先生強壯高超的體能,都被一件看來毫不起眼的小事物,輕而易舉地擊垮、粉碎。
Last night a 300 pound bodybuilder couldn’t fall asleep because of a mosquito that buzzed restlessly around his ear all night. It is mind-blowing how this seemingly insignificant creature can cause a much bigger and stronger man to break down and malfunction.
Approximately 3 miles from where the bodybuilder lived, a man turned down a 9/10 woman for sex due to a speck of pepper that was stuck in between her front teeth.
The two events occurred simultaneously and can be said to be analogous to each other, where both the girl’s entire grace and beauty, and the bodybuilder’s strength and prowess were single-handily and crushed by a single insignificant spectacle.
