You know what? I used to be a fan of evolution, but I've since evolved, and now I think it's dumb. 你知道吗？我以前是进化论的支持者，但在我进化后，现在想想其实那理论挺蠢的。

And at the same time, not. 同时又没过错。

You know, there's nothing I can do about getting you invited to the symposium⁴, but if you wanted...we could build a fort. 或许，我不能让你获邀去参加学术报告会。但如果你想...我们可以搭建一座堡垒。

Isn't that a little juvenile⁵? -More juvenile than this? 那会不会有点太幼稚了？-会比这个还幼稚吗？
