Touching someone's computer screen
触摸别人的电脑屏幕
This one is particularly close to my heart. If you’re looking over my shoulder at my computer screen and you want to point something out to me, you're more than welcome to use your finger to point to it. But you better pray you don't actually touch that monitor, because I will ruin you.
这一条我真的深有感触。如果你恰好站在我背后看着我的电脑屏幕,而你又想指出上面的什么东西,我很欢迎你把它指出来。但你可千万不要碰到我的电脑屏,否则我会好好收拾你一顿。
Pulling out your phone while having a one-on-one conversation
一对一聊天时掏出手机看
I get it—not every conversation you have in life is going to be a riveting exchange of ideas. In fact, most of them will probably be so mindlessly awkward you'll try to chew through your own tongue just to keep from having to continue speaking.
我明白,不是没段对话都是引人入胜的思想碰撞。事实上大多数对话都无脑到让人尴尬,以至于你都不得不想咬断自己的舌头来停止讲话。
