George Carlin - Euphemisms
推荐理由
George Carlin made this point brilliantly
强烈推荐gorwell · 原文
说明
这是2012年由poyani发布的一部喜剧,主题归在Stand-up & sketch comedy。它讲的是euphemism and language这一支里的具体问题,而不是把整个领域扫一遍。适合按兴趣直接看、不打算先补课的人。内容上可以概括成:A George Carlin stand-up bit on euphemisms, tracing how language gets softened, such as shell shock becoming PTSD, until it loses its emotional force.这些读者给出的理由,核心是:HN commenters reach for it whenever a thread involves corporate or political euphemism, using it mostly as a reference.讲法不绑某一条新闻,过几年仍然可以当材料看。从2014年到2025年,有4位不同的读者在4个不同月份把它推荐出来,其中明确叫别人去看的有1次。适合已经懂这个圈子的梗、想放松看的人。不适合拿来当第一课。如果已经会了基本定义,就把注意力放在它怎么把euphemism and language变成能跟着复述的例子。
