荧屏情景

荧屏情景：

星期二 排队 片段选自《乐团狂飙》 Bandslam 01:40--02:27

Dewey: I tend to make snap judgments about people based on what kind of music they like. Like these kids are into hip-hop lite, the kind where some rapper does one verse of a Christina Aguilera song. Then there's the "Trustafarians." Rich suburban white kids with knit caps and $2,000 dreadlock extensions. The indie-rock clique is made up of me and one other kid I refuse to meet until he bathes and stops flattening his hair with his hand. What can I say? I think I just kind of missed the memo about how to fit in in Cincinnati.
德维：我对人的第一印象经常是根据他们对音乐的喜好，像这些小鬼喜欢嘻哈乐，就是学饶舌歌手掰歌词。接着是公子哥儿，有钱的市郊的白人小孩戴针织帽，光假辫子就很贵。独立摇滚派由我及一个我不想接近的怪胎组成。很难领教他不洗澡，还爱用手压平头发，我没辙了，我想我只是想念在辛辛那提用备忘录记事的日子了。
Boy A: I'm sorry. That was an accident.
男孩甲：抱歉，纯属意外。
Boys: Dewey. Dewey!
男孩们：德维，德维！
Dewey: Oh, well. As a wise musician once said, "I have become comfortably numb."
德维：正如一名聪明的乐手说过，“我变得惬意地麻木”。
