澳洲的知识分子们在他们的新版词典里收录了一个新词,这个词是形容那种在社交场合只顾着玩手机的“低头族”,我得承认,有的时候和一些熟人介绍的陌生人在一起时是有些尴尬的,目光无处安放,于是默默地低下头,逃匿到各种APP里。
1. Stop phubbing.
Phubbing就是这个形容低头族的新词,the act of snubbing someone in a social setting by looking at your phone instead of paying attention.在社交场合怠慢面前的人而去玩智能机的人就是a phubber,这个行为就是phubbing,phone和snub的结合。
2. Phubbers ignores the people in front of them in favor of their smart phones.
3. Connected, but alone.
Ted前两年有位叫做Sherry Turkle的女教授给了一个主题演讲,connected, but alone. 说明这种在智能手机时代大家信息层面有联系但情感上感到孤单的情况。不得不说,这两个词用得非常准确。
4. Instead of playing Draw Something, draw something.
之前有个你画我猜的应用非常红,但是玩得久了就发现,其实完全可以不要在手机上画,在纸上画最好嘛!
5. I'm tired of using technology,I need you right in front of me.
Justin Timberlake和50 cent合作的单曲《Technology》里唱到,我用腻了这些高科技产品了,
Stop phubbing据说是一个真实的网站,里面对低头族提出了鲜明的反对态度。有则改之无则加勉,我们自己首先别做phubber,再去让身边的人停止phubbing。
