越吻越伤心
<越吻越伤心> 曲:吴国敬 词:林夕 原唱：苏永康
问你哪个配搭穿起使我最配衬
但你冷冷两眼似看着无聊闲人
问你哪一出好戏最近会令人提提神
但换来连场沉默如像跟我嬉笑不再吸引
问你我喝醉了可不可对我吻吻
但你碰碰嘴角动作像撩撩途人
问你会否因工作太累两目完全无神
而你似强制内心的抖震
*越问越伤心明明无余地再过问
明明知道衷心一吻会有更亲厚质感
越问越伤心仍然胡涂是我过份
明明知道彼此不再情深何必追问远近*
问你距我太远可不可以坐更近
但你似听见了某个极无聊奇闻
问你有否想起你我是哪样成为情人
但换来连场沉默如像早觉得我不再吸引
问你那晚见我怎么湿透了发鬓
但你似觉得我问错问题如傻人
问到你跟他相处背后那段缠绵传闻
而你却窃笑像偷偷兴奋
越问越伤心明明无余地再过问
明明知道衷心一吻会有更亲厚质感
越问越伤心仍然胡涂是我过份
明明知道彼此不再情深无谓再叁迫近
夜的诗人：“
Figure why you should not ask a blind how an elephant looks like?
Answer: Because you cannot expect the blind to give you a satisfactory answer.
Therefore, you actually can save yourself some trouble and exasperation by not asking in the first place. The problem with a lack lustre academic record, is that people treat you like a blind, and then still ask you how an elephant looks like.
To be the fair, the above is not an attack on our visually disadvantaged friends. It is just to draw parallels with the parable, 盲人摸象. I am sure if any blind people is asked this question, they would politely apologize and say that they have not seen an elephant before. My point is, if you cannot trust that someone can give you a satisfactory answer, then don't ask. It is very rude to redirect your question to another person in my face after hearing my answer. It is not simply a case of gathering more opinions loh. If it is academic, there usually is a correct or wrong, or a quantified solution to it. When someone asks and I have an answer, I would of course gladly share my knowledge. On the other hand when I don't or when I am unsure, I would be frank and kind enough not to 'smoke' you loh. Of course there are times I would be wrong too, then whoever asked should politely engage me in a meaningful discussion to correct my wrong. By the way, the answer most agreed upon may not be the correct and best answer.
Ever wonder why people are satisfied and end their tirade of queries at Count Dooku and the gang of gods but move on after me? That's right, I'm blind, so stop asking me how the elephant looks like. Go ask someone with proper eyesight.
