take it out on拿别人撒气

把过气偶像的余生说得又荒唐又好笑，一句就立住猫王没死的奇谈。

Get as ... as he was and just ...

朋友间拿过气名人开玩笑时能用；对刚失去亲人的人别说。

Put all the weight back on and just laugh at yourself. ／ Grow as big as he once was and mock himself daily.

口语

重读 fat 和 all day long，前半句快，句尾拖长。

He looked at his old photos and just made fun of himself all day. 他看着旧照片，一整天就拿自己开涮。

把对方的词原样抛回去再当场否掉，关系有多深一句就说明白了。

X? X is not the word.

要否定一个标签、说明关系比那更深时能用；正式介绍场合别这么拽。

Friend isn't the right word. ／ That word does not cover it.

口语

两个 Friends 之间停顿短，is not the word 放慢加重。

Teammates? Teammates is not the word. They are family. 队友？用队友这词可不够。他们是家人。

被挡在门外这点小事，被他一句普世悲伤说成宇宙级笑话。

Couldn't get in. Universal ... all around us.

自嘲倒霉时能用；对不太熟的人抱怨要收着，别显得太丧。

Couldn't get in. Total gloom everywhere. ／ Didn't make it in. Pure collective misery.

口语

Couldn't get in 连读，Universal 重读，句尾放轻。

Couldn't get a table. Universal sadness all around us. 没订到桌。我们周围全是普天之下的悲伤。

一个都市传说的开场，认真到好笑，整章就建立在这句话上。

I really, honestly believe that ...

半认真半玩笑地力挺某个离谱说法时能用；正经讨论事实时别这么强调。

I truly believe he's still out there. ／ I honestly think he never really died.

口语

Check it out 连读，really honestly 并列重读，still alive 放慢收尾。

I really, honestly believe that old diner is still open. 我真的、真的相信那家老餐馆还开着。
