Ike: Fisher, pick up. Fisher, it's me! Fisher, pick up! I'm late, come on, come on. I need to bounce some ideas off you. Mine are all boring, done it, been there.
Man1: Hey, Ike!
Ike: When are you guys gonna stop waking me up every morning?
Man1: When your column stops putting me to sleep.
Ike: Funny, funny.
Man1: Yo, Jonah!
Ike: Fisher, come on! Are you really not there? All right, cool. I'll talk to you later. Excuse me. Excuse me. You know, I'm thinking of doing an article about limousines. What do you think about people who've never been in one?
Woman1: I'm sorry I don't know people like that.
Ike: Thanks. I need someone to bounce some ideas off of and get the juices flowing. I got one hour, 27 minutes, 52 seconds.
Man2: Hey, Ike! When are you gonna put me in a column?
Ike: When your T-shirts stop shrinking.
Woman2: Shrinks?
Man2: Funny. Funny.
Woman2: Oh, forget it.
Man2: He's kidding. He's just kidding. Here, give me $5. Give me $2.
Woman2: No way.
Man2: Folks, I got nice shirts here. Look! "I love everybody. You're next."
妙語佳句，活學(xué)活用
1. bounce ideas off somebody
這個片語的意思是“present an idea to somebody, and receive a reaction 和某人談?wù)撓敕?，并聽取某人的意見”，If you 'let someone bounce ideas off you' you make your self available to listen to ideas in a spirit of openness (and possibly give creative criticism so as to encourage further creative ideas). 比如：Jena, please do me a favor, I really need to bounce ideas off you. 珍娜，幫我個忙，我真需要聽聽你的意見。
2. done it, been there
這個片語的原形是been there, done that，表示的是“已經(jīng)……過”，再重復(fù)的話就沒有新意、很乏味，比如：No, I don't want to climb Mount Washington; been there, done that. 不，我不想去爬華盛頓山，我已經(jīng)爬過了，再爬一次很無聊。
