A turkey was chatting with a bull.
有一隻火雞跟一隻公牛在聊天。
"I would love to be able to get to the top of that tree,"
火雞說:我真的很想爬到這樹枝頭上耶!
sighed the turkey, "but I haven't got the energy."
但是我沒力氣.....
"Well, why don't you nibble on some of my droppings?"
牛說:嗯......沒關係,那你要不要吃一點我的牛大便(英譯:狗屁,屁話)呢 ?
replied the bull.
"They're packed with nutrients."
我的牛大便是很營養的喔。
The turkey pecked at a lump of dung and found that it actually gave him enough strength to reach the first branch of the tree.
火雞就吃了很多牛大便,就變的很強壯足夠讓火雞爬上第一排的樹枝。
The next day, after eating some more dung,
接下來的一天,火雞又吃了很多牛大便(狗屁,屁話)
he reached the second branch.
讓火雞可以爬上第二排枝頭。
Finally after a fornight,
最後,兩個禮拜過後,
there he was proudly perched at the top of the tree.
火雞終於爬上枝頭很安穩的在休息,
Soon he was promptly spotted by a farmer,
好景不常,一位農夫發現這隻火雞,
who shot the turkey out of the tree.
開槍把火雞打死了。
Moral of the story:這故事告訴你:
Bullshit might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there.
(狗屁,屁話)或許可以讓你爬的更高,但不可能讓你成功一輩子。
