Here comes Johnny now.
 

现代人茶余饭后最爱聚在一起说是非，很奇怪的是每当说到某人是非时，某人就总会在附近出现，中文有句话：‘说曹操，曹操到’，英文是Speak of the devil。换着主角不是曹操而是Johnny，英文可以说：Here comes Johnny now.（钱宁他正朝这边过来），或者说：Johnny is coming now。（钱宁现正过来）如果有些麻烦人或者麻烦事正过来，可以用Here comes trouble.（烦恼正来了）。
对话
Ａ：I can't work with Johnny anymore. He always changes his mind and doesn't produce results.
Ｂ：Calm down, Kate. A job is a job and after all he is our boss.
Ａ：So what? I can always quit my job and study more. Johnny is really a big.....
Ｂ：Shhhh..... Here comes Johnny now.
Ａ：Hi!
甲：我不能再和钱宁一起工作，他常常三心两意，又不能干。
乙：冷静点，凯伊。工作是工作，他毕竟是我们的老板。
甲：那又如何?我可以随时辞职去读书，钱宁真是个．．．．．．
乙：嘘……钱宁正朝这边过来。
甲：嗨！　

‘谁人背后无人说？’在背后说人家的不是，英文叫to speak ill of somebody behind his back，这behind one's back（背面）和to one's face（当面）相对，例如：He calls me a good-for-nothing behind my back, but never to my face（他背面说我一无是处，却从来不会当面跟我这样说）。

背后讲人坏话，英文还有一个颇有趣的说法：backbite，直译是‘在背后咬’。When you hear your friend being backbitten, what would you do?即‘听见有人说你朋友的坏话，你会怎么办？’Backbite这种行为，叫做backbiting，而从事backbiting的人自然是backbiter，例如：We don't want a backbiter in our office.（我们办公室不要搬弄是非者）。

凯伊批评老板经常改变主意，这英文可以说是He is always changing his mind。留意这个always的用法：‘be（包括is, were等be的变体）+ always + ing动词’，多用来表示烦厌。请比较以下两句：(1) He always complains to me.（他总是向我诉苦）。(2) He is always complaining to me.（他整天啰啰唆唆的向我诉苦）。第一句没有不耐烦含义，和第二句不同。
凯伊刚要叫老板做 ‘大ＸＸ’，老板就来了。 ‘一说曹操，曹操就到’的英文说法是Speak（或Talk）of the devil, and he will（或is sure to）appear.（一说魔鬼，魔鬼就现身），往往略作Speak（或Talk）of the devil。
