  英语潮流新语

  Good lenses, bad frames

  人不可貌相

  Describing someone who gives a bad first impression but is actually a good person. Someone who doesnt appear to be competent, yet is extremely capable at what he/she does.

  形容一个给人的第一印象极差、但本质很好的人,或者指表面看不出来,实则深藏不露的高手。

  例句:Dr. Bruce is a spaz, but hes one of the best doctors I know. You wouldnt know it by looking at him...good lenses, bad frames.

  Mid-day crisis

  午间危机

  When one is in a desperate need for a siesta because they become extremely tired in the afternoon and coffee isnt cutting it any longer.

  指急需午睡以补充体力的情况,这种时候通常咖啡已经不管用了。

  例句:After that wild night of drinking, I had the worst mid-day crisis ever.

  Clock Out With My Cock Out

  下班high去喽

  To call it a day at work so you can go party.

  下班之后去派对狂欢(clock out即打卡下班,也可以说punch out)

  例句:-Hey, dude, you coming to happy hour?

  Nearsighted Date

  近视相亲

  As opposed to a blind date, where you have no idea what the other person looks like, a nearsighted date is one where youve seen a photo or chatted via web before meeting in person.

  与blind date(事先一无所知的相亲)相对,指在相亲前看过对方的照片或者网聊过。

  This can often lead to disappointment if one person or the other has supplied misleading documentation.

  如果对方没有给你真实照片或提供了虚假信息,nearsighted date一样有见光死的可能。

  例句:Thats the last nearsighted date I ever go on...her profile picture must have been 5 years, 3 hair colors and 2 kids ago.(这个见光死死得彻底啊)

  Happy Late Year

  拜个晚年

  When people are still saying Happy New Year, even though its already a week after the new year.

  -More like happy late year... it was new years 5 days ago.

  Work avalanche

  工作压死人

  When there is so much work piled on your desk, movement from under it is nearly impossible.

  桌上一堆东西要处理,想脱身而出,不可能。

  例句:Hey, pour me a drink! I worked up quite a thirst digging out from my work avalanche to get to happy hour.

  Postsantum depression

  节后抑郁症

  The incredible letdown some folks experience when they realize Christmas is over

  (typical Monday after Christmas office discussion)

  The period of time after Christmas and New Years where the clothes you wore prior to the holidays that fit well, all of a sudden are a little tighter than they should be.
