聊父母与爱情：romantic projections
有人聊起父母当年愤怒反抗一切，父亲后来成了成功的建筑师；也有人说父母为了孩子硬撑没离婚，末了补一句 thank you very much（句末道谢，常带不满或强调）。聊到感情，有人说人总爱加 romantic projections（浪漫想象），祖母却 accepted her fate（认命了）。
发生了什么
两个人聊起各自的父母和感情。有人说，出生在哪个年代其实不要紧；父母当年愤怒地反抗一切，自己是在他们争来的自由里长大的。也有人说，谁的父母没把孩子搞坏过。话题转到爱情，有人问认不认识幸福的伴侣，对方答认识，却觉得他们互相说谎。born into（出生在某种环境）、accepted her fate（认命了）、romantic projections（浪漫想象）都出现了，聊家庭和感情时用得上。
这场戏看什么
- 留意讲父母时笑与停顿的落差
- 注意 shit/fucked up 的轻重
- 看谁在追问，谁在转移话题
留意这几个短语

关于这一章的问题
romantic projections 是什么意思？
指人给某个人或事物加上浪漫滤镜，把自己想象的东西投射上去，往往和现实无关。台词里说，人总把这些想象套到一切事物上。
「认命了」英语怎么说？
可以说 accepted her fate。台词里是 She just accepted her fate，说的是她认了命；说话人紧接着说 It's so sad，带着惋惜。
same old shit 在这句台词里指什么？
指上一代反抗之后，这代人还得应付的老一套烂事，却说不清敌人是谁。shit 是粗话，适合私下吐槽，正式场合别用。
shaped the way I think 是什么意思？
意思是塑造了我的想法，强调长期形成的看法。台词里前面转述母亲说自己是个大错误，随后一句 That really shaped the way I think。
thank you very much 在这里是道谢吗？
不一定。它常放在句末表示不满或加重语气；台词里听不出说话人是真心道谢还是带刺，别急着断定。
