精彩对白

地点：罗斯公寓客厅
人物：罗斯，钱德勒
事件：钱德勒发布的罗斯死讯没有得到任何回复，这让罗斯觉得没人关心他，因此他决定举办一次个人悼念仪式。
Ross: Eh… actually no, I don’t need to, because your little “Ross is dead” joke didn’t work. OK, there were no responses. Nobody posted anything on the website; nobody called my parents. So the joke, my friend, is on you.② Nobody called, nobody wrote anything, nobody cares that I’m dead. Oh my God! Nobody cares that I’m dead!

so the joke is on you
[ sou ðə jou kɪ zɑ njµ.]

Chandler: No, come on, you know that’s not true.
Ross: What are you talking about? You get sixty responses just for coming out of the closet! I didn’t get one response! And I’m dead!
Chandler: Well, the gay community is a lot more vocal than the dead community.
Ross: I can’t believe this. Not even my geology lab partner? And I carried that guy!
Chandler: Alright look, let’s think about this, OK? Do you really think that people are gonna stir up your family at this tragic time? That people are gonna post condolences on a website? This isn’t about people not caring that you’re dead. This is about people not having a decent outlet for their grief.

This isn’t about people not caring that you’re dead.
[ ðɪ sɪ zɪ nə bɑu’ pi pəl nɑ’ keəriŋ ðæ’ jər ded. ]

Ross: You’re right. There isn’t a decent outlet.
Chandler: Right, I mean, come on, I’m sure that if you had a funeral or a memorial service, tons of people would come.
Ross: Exactly!
