看到一则很有意思的回文,就稍微不尽责翻译了一下。
希望各位参考看看。
Think about this from Javale's perspective. In case you are not aware, a lot of Javale's Shaqtin' moments can be chalked up to the fact that he has ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder), which he has stated publicly.
让我们从Javale的立场去思考这件事。提醒你,许多Javale的Shaqtin moments和他是个ADHD患者(他自己也曾公开承认)的事实有直接关联。
The main hallmarks of ADHD are an inability to focus at times and lapses in concentration. Stuff like running back on defense while your team still has the ball. Forgetting appointments. Making stupid plays. Leaving the stove on. Ill advised dunks. Having trouble changing tasks. Trying to inbound while the other team has possession. Problems maintaining relationships.
ADHD的标准特征就是有时无法保持专注以及注意力失效。像是在球队还掌握球权时跑回后场去防守。忘记自己防守的对象。打出愚蠢的play。忘记关瓦斯炉就离开。不合理的灌篮尝试。对于变换工作有障碍。企图在别队有球权时发球。难以维持关系。
Notice how some of these are a lot less funny than others? Those non Shaqtin' moments are more likely than not a constant reality of Javale's everyday life.
你有注意到在这些错误之中,并不总是很有趣吗?这些非Shaqtin’ moments 更不像是Javale在现实生活当中的情况。
Think about the effects of constantly having worry about slipping up like this all the time due to a condition outside of your control. It would probably begin to weigh on you quite a bit. It would definitely lead to increased stress, perhaps depression. It might even make you consider leading a life that minimizes your exposure to situations that could exacerbate your ADHD. But you deal with it because you don't want to let your mental condition take away from what you want to do with your life. You
persevere. You excel. ADHD takes a backseat in regards to defining you and your choices as a human being.
试想若是你必须因为你完全无法掌控的因素,而持续担忧自己是否会搞砸。它很有可能会开始影响你,肯定会导致压力增加,或是感到沮丧。你甚至会开始考虑,去过那种“不会让你暴露在可能会导致ADHD恶化的情况”的生活。但你试着去面对它、处理它,毕竟你不希望你人生中想做的事因为你的心理状态而被夺走。你坚持住,并击败它了。ADHD不再能定义你和你所做的选择。
Then one day, a guy comes along and notices the funny things your ADHD makes you do sometimes and makes a show about it.* Sure, he probably does not know that you have a condition that makes you prone to gaffes such as the ones that pop up on his show, but the damage is done nonetheless. Your private struggle has been thrust into the limelight. Your ADHD has come back to overshadow your achievements, distracting from who you are and all you have done to reach the place where you are today. You have
become defined by something that you swore would never define you, and everything that truly defines you in your eyes has been cast aside.
突然有一天,有个人走近,发现你因为ADHD而有时做出的好笑举动,然后决定开个show。当然,他八成不知道你面对这样的情况,让你容易产生那些在他的show里出现的画面。然而伤害已经造成,你内心的挣扎如今全被放在镁光灯下了。ADHD又重新开始遮蔽你的成就,打击你建立的自我认知以及你为了达到今天的高度所作出的努力。你被某个你发誓永远不会定义你的事物框住,而所有你认为应当真正定义你的却被丢弃了。
This, IMO, is why Javale is throwing such shade Shaq's way. And I don't blame him at all. Shaq is essentially shaming him for having ADHD. There is no way Shaq could still be unaware of Javale's condition after all these years, which means that he's doing it for the ratings. He's exploiting the fact that Javale has ADHD for ratings.
这个,根据我的看法,就是为什么Javale会对Shaq做出如此反击。而我完全不怪他。基本上,Shaq等于是因为Javale有ADHD而羞辱他。经过这么多年,Shaq绝对不可能没有察觉到Javale的状况,这代表他完全是为了收视率而做的。Javale有ADHD的这件事被他一再利用,只为了收视率。
I do not know what the solution to all of this is, but when someone has been blatantly disrespecting you for years, using your struggles as a source of laughs and income, you are bound to start resorting to retorts that might seem a bit drastic in the eyes of others.
我不知道这个事件的解答是什么,但若有人轻视你这么多年,利用你的挣扎作为嘲笑与收入的来源,你必须要试着反击,即便在旁人看来过于激烈。
*I understand that Javale may not have been the catalyst for Shaqtin' a Fool, but he is undoubtedly the reason why it has lasted longer than one season.
*我明白Javale 可能其实不是Shaqtin’ a Fool之所以火红的催化剂,但他绝对是这个show持续超过一季的原因。
