喜樂美語

Something so far off from what makes sense that you almost want to laugh at it. Not merely wrong — wrong in a way that falls apart the moment you look at it straight: a rule, a price, an excuse that nobody could take seriously.

可以想成一件事離「講得通」實在太遠，遠到你聽了會忍不住想笑。它不只是「錯」，而是一攤開來看就整個垮掉：一條沒人做得到的規定、一個貴到離譜的價錢、一個一戳就破的藉口。用 absurd 的時候，說話的人通常帶著一點難以置信的口氣——不是在分析對錯，而是在說「這根本不成立吧」。
