Obscenities... I think a lot of dumb people do it because they can't think of what they want to say and they're frustrated. A lot of smart people do it to pretend they aren't very smart - want to be just one of the boys.

  • -- Andy Rooney 安迪·鲁尼

污秽的……我认为很多傻瓜这么做是因为他们想不出他们想说什么,他们感到沮丧。很多聪明的人这样做是为了假装他们不是很聪明——只是想成为其中的一个男孩。
