前两天我们介绍了一个很形象的表达eye candy,指外形养眼的“花瓶”类人物或景致。今天,我们再来说一个跟candy有关的表达。
Thumb candy refers to any computer game that requires little thought or strategy and focusing on hand-eye coordination. The term is a play on eye candy, which refers to visually appealing persons or effects.
Thumb candy指那些仅考验手眼协调能力无需动脑的电脑游戏,有人称之为“弱智游戏”。Thumb candy这个说法是在eye candy(养眼花瓶)的基础上演变而来的,eye candy指外形很惹眼球的人或视觉效果。
For example:
Stop playing those thumb candies, they are not doing any good to you.
别玩那些弱智游戏了,对你一点好处都没有。
