A guy was seated next to a 10-year-old girl on an airplane. Being bored, he turned to the girl and said, "Let's talk. I've heard that flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger."
The girl, who was reading a book, closed it slowly and said to the guy, "What would you like to talk about?"
Oh, I don't know," said the guy. "How about nuclear power?"
"OK," she said. "That could be an interesting topic. But let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow and a deer all eat the same stuff... grass. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, and a horse produces clumps of dried grass. Why do you suppose that is?"
The guy thought about it and said, "Hmmm, I have no idea."
To which the girl replied, "Do you really feel qualified to discuss nuclear power when you don't know shit?"

让我们聊聊
在飞机上，一个男人坐在一个10岁小女孩的旁边。因为很无聊，他就对那小姑娘说：“让我们聊聊天吧，我听说如果你和你的旅伴开始聊天，那么感觉时间就会过得快点。”
正在读书的小女孩慢慢地合上书，问道：“那你想聊写什么呢？”
那人回答道：“噢，我也不知道我想聊些什么。不如我们聊聊核能吧。”
小女孩说道：“好吧，那一定是一个很有意思的话题。不过首先让我问你一个问题吧。题目是有一匹马，一头牛和一头鹿，它们都是吃同一种原料——草。然而鹿排出的是一颗颗的小丸，牛排出的是扁平饼状的物体，而马呢排出的是一块块的干草物。你认为为什么会这样呢？”
那人想了一会儿，说道：“噢，我不知道。”
小女孩说道：“你连这个都不知道，你真的认为你有资格谈论核能吗？”
