Rufus Sixsmith leans over the balcony and estimates his body’s velocity

Sixsmith dares not

Sixsmith feels older than his sixty-six years. Smog obscures the stars, but

到底要具备哪些素质 才能被称为吃货
我个人认为一个吃货,一个真正的吃货,一个脱离了低级趣味的吃货,一定要具备的基
本素质有:
1.什么都吃过,最近3,5年内上万一桌的宴席吃过,块吧钱的地摊吃过
2.什么都敢吃,有腿没腿,1支腿,2支腿,4支腿,6支腿,8支腿,100支腿,都吃过
3.祖国东南西北到处都吃过,
众人认为一个吃货,一个真正的吃货,一个具备中级趣味的吃货,一定要具备的基本素
质有:
1.什么场合吃过,吃完了会讲得出道理来,光吃不说傻把式,会吃会说真把式
2.什么都敢吃,有腿没腿,1支腿,2支腿,4支腿。。。100支腿,关键是能引导后辈往

都说在上海,都管这个牙叫静根牙,然而MMX强调,那个东西叫什么智慧牙。away和
funny算是已经习惯了广东话和普通话之前的区别了,因为以前,类似的无聊的争执
已经发生过多次,比如:Cucumber, 译作中文应该叫什么呢?funny和away当然认定
叫黄瓜了,然而,MMX硬说叫青瓜,还理直气壮的说,你看颜色,是黄的还是青的?
Away说,热狗也不是用狗肉做的,干嘛叫热狗?
近日,MMX的牙越长越来劲,以致于淋巴节肿大,于是捂着嘴到away房里来讨药吃。
各位不知,MMX对吃药极为谨慎,没有说明书的要一律不吃,不到关键时候,绝不
轻易食用以前没吃过的药----看样子今个是忍不住了。Away翻箱倒柜找了半天,终于
看到一有说明书的抗菌素,嗯.., 对药名暂时保密,MMX拿了就开始研究,然后
惊叫:啊?我还没到50公斤呢,不能吃吧?
Away接过说明书一看,原来是说

MMX喝汤,只是对其中水的部分感兴趣,至于汤里又什么虾丸,鱼球,都认为是渣滓。
Sigh, away和funny只好勉为其难,承包了渣滓。
另一种汤则是要精心加入各种补品,炖上一天,然后在饭后喝上一碗,属于进补的。
第二种汤里,要加肉骨头,红枣,蜜枣,莲藕等等,总之工艺极为复杂。一般说来,
MMX做汤所用的骨头得先买来鸡腿,然后剔掉鸡肉,再做汤。一日,MMX想做汤,无奈
家中已无鸡腿了,又不想马上shopping,本想作罢,然而,funny在整理冰箱的时候,
翻出一包物事,仔细一看,好象是剔好的骨头!funny就自言自语“咦,鸡骨头?”
MMX立刻两眼放光,叫到“骨头???”funny一看MMX就乐了,说:

每个人都生活压力巨大,都想从别人那里得到些温暖和依靠,但每个人都无力为别人提

形成的社会规则是,把黑暗面隐藏给自己,每个人都必须funny.如果你不funny,去找

同时还要摆出政治正确的立场,套话得准备好,要时刻表现出自己得博爱,热心。即使

拼命工作一辈子,到死能还清自己得房贷就不错了。老一代日子好过点。新一代日子更

点起来,不能再迟到”。
罗嗦这些是因为儿子从开始上JK后每天早上都要whine一小下不去上学,从来没有哪天
干干脆脆地说要去上学的。能有昨晚那样的决定至少应该说明这几天在学校待得还不错
吧。结果,就在我认为卧谈结束,安静了两分钟后,儿子突然说,“妈妈,我没有朋友

我吓了一跳,问他,“xx不是你的朋友吗?”(这个xx常听儿子回家提到,说他很
funny)
“不是,xx很funny,但他只对我funny,不对我好。”
“那YY是你的朋友吗?”(这个YY曾经跟儿子同仇敌忾反抗另一个大小孩)
“不是,他有的时候不好。”
又问了两个名字后,儿子总结说:“要每天都对我好才是朋友。。他们都不是这样。。
我没有朋友。”
