Stop Littering
不要乱扔垃圾
The only thing I hate more than wasteful people are litterbugs.
唯一一个让我觉得比浪费的人更可恶的就是垃圾虫。
Litterbugs are my least favorite bug, and there are more than you'd think. If you've ever thrown even one piece of gum, paper, candy wrapper, cigarette butt, etc on the ground,you're a disgusting litterbug, and you should be ashamed of yourself.
垃圾虫最让我厌恶,而且永远多的让你数不清。如果你曾扔过一块口香糖,一张纸、糖果包装、烟蒂,那么你就是恶心的垃圾虫。你应该感到耻辱。
There are over 7 billion people in the world –if each person only throws one "innocent"piece of garbage on the ground, that's 7 billion pieces of garbage littering a world in which nobody "did it".
世界上有超过70亿的人——如果每个人都无意识的扔一点垃圾,那么全世界就会变成70亿垃圾场,哪怕没有罪魁祸首。
Your one decision makes a huge difference, and I will not allow you to blow it off and walk around with your head held high.
你的一个决定会产生深远的影响,我不赞成你去大马路大声高呼。
You're a litterbug, and it needs tostop immediately. You don't get a life hack for this one, you filthy animal. Just stop –you already know how。
如果你是垃圾虫,那么就需要马上停止了,也许不会救命,但能让你不那么惹人厌。停止这一举动吧,你知道该怎么做的。
