01 Dec 2025
A friend makes a ridiculous plan to wake up at 6 a.m., a quick “don’t even think about it,”and a clear explanation of “this is why” — today’s episode is full of real, everyday reactions in Chinese.昨天我朋友突然给我发消息,说:Zuótiān wǒ péngyou tūrán gěi wǒ fā xiāoxi, shuō:Yesterday my friend suddenly sent me a message and said:“我想明天六点起床去跑步。”“Wǒ xiǎng míngtiān liù diǎn qǐchuáng qù pǎobù.”“I want to wake up at 6 a.m. tomorrow to run.”我一看手机,心里想:Wǒ yí kàn shǒujī, xīnlǐ xiǎng:I looked at my phone and thought:“你每天九点才起床,想都别想六点能起来。”“Nǐ měitiān jiǔ diǎn cái qǐchuáng,xiǎng dōu bié xiǎng liù diǎn néng qǐlái.”“You wake up at 9 every day —don’t even think about getting up at 6.”结果第二天,他真的没起来。Jiéguǒ dì èr tiān, tā zhēn de méi qǐlái.And as expected, he didn’t wake up.他跟我说:“我六点的闹钟响了,Tā gēn wǒ shuō: “Wǒ liù diǎn de nàozhōng xiǎng le,He told me, “My 6 a.m. alarm rang,但我一点儿都不想动,太困了!”dàn wǒ yìdiǎnr dōu bù xiǎng dòng, tài kùn le!”but I didn’t want to move at all — I was too sleepy!”然后他又说:Ránhòu tā yòu shuō:Then he added:“不过我昨天说的话也太离谱了吧?”“Búguò wǒ zuótiān shuō de huà yě tài lípǔ le ba?”“But honestly, what I said yesterday was way too ridiculous, right?”我笑着回答:Wǒ xiàozhe huídá:I laughed and said:“对,这就是为什么我一开始就觉得你起不来的。”“Duì, zhè jiù shì wèi shénme wǒ yì kāishǐ jiù juéde nǐ qǐ bù lái de.”“Yes — that’s why I knew from the beginning you wouldn’t get up.”这就是为什么 — This is why想都别想 — Don’t even think about it离谱 — Ridiculous / Absurd
