I'm afraid that you were thinking with your heart and not your head my friend.
65
New comics day.

Hmm, you can almost smell the desperation.

Take this to Frank.

He would have no chance against adamantium claws and mutant healing powers.
77
Hey Alex, Yoda versus Wolverine.
78
Who do you think's gonna win?
79
Sorry, I have no idea what you're talking about.
80
Okay, 100 bucks even.

Thanks.

And Matt says she plays some weird Siddhar, the Zither, it's called or something.

Oh, not another one of your hopeless goth girl fixations.

I bet you haven't even talked to her.
93
I have so.
94
Here.
95
Thanks.
96
Oh, so you're going to take this little plastic dinosaur collection?
97
Nah, nah, I'll leave that here.
98
Oh, right.
99
That's educational stuff.
100
I don't want that.
101
Alex, don't leave me.
102
I want to go with you in the Jelena Anderson playset.
103
I want to come too, please, Alex.
104
Hey, when I get my apartment, I'm going to be the man.
105
Oh, really?
106
Yeah.
107
Or at least a normal human being.
108
You know, when you do, if that should happen, and you start dating surgically implanted lap dancers and all that kind of stuff,
109
who will keep me from blowing my brains out with a shotgun?
110
Oh, don't worry.
111
I'll always be there for you.
112
Like you'll be there for me.
113
Oh, yes.
114
On moving day.
115
Amen.
116
With the money for the van.
117
You have obviously forgotten my motto.
118
Neither a borrower nor a lender be.
119
Or a voluntary participant in Poetry Slam.
120
Or a woman wearing a sweatshirt decorated with glitter.
121
You don't like many people, do you, Jenna?
122
No. And that should make you feel extra special.
123
Oh.
124
Yeah.
125
Oh, God, no, don't.
126
What was?
127
Your heart made of stone?
128
Doesn't this bring back memories?
129
Yeah, it was my only date in high school.
130
God, I remember.
131
Yes.
132
I was emptying the spit valve on my trumpet, and this clarinet reed came, like, flying through the air,
133
and had stuck up, skin blue-playing Stacy Bruce-faced Barcella in the back of the neck.
134
Ha, ha, ha, ha.
135
Oh, my gosh.
136
I remember.
137
And then after school, we went to Mastore's
138
and made them give us a bowl of gravy to dip the french fries in, which is a bizarre custom that you, I don't know where you get this from.
139
They do that in Europe.
140
Oh, they do?
141
Yeah.
142
Aren't you cosmopolitan?
143
It was so funny though, I remember, I think that was when we realized how much we both hated her guts.
144
And we made up the nickname Barfella, you know, and we became like friends through shared animosity.
145
See, Jen, actually I liked Barfella.
146
So that's why I threw things at her, that's what boys do.
147
And you know well, let's just say she provided enough
148
stroking material for me to get through junior high without ever having to actually talk to a girl.
149
Except for you of course.
150
Alex.
151
Yeah.
152
Why can't you let me enjoy my hate?
153
Then he puts his arm around me and he goes, this here's my next hoo-chi.
154
Don't look at me like that.
155
He didn't mean it in a bad way.
156
I know it.
157
Uh, Mecca, if someone did that to me, I'd be all, and here's your next operation.
158
Hi-ya-ya-ya!
159
Whatever.
160
Shouldn't we be helping or something?
161
So, how did you find this apartment?
162
I lucked out.
163
The landlord came into work to copy legal forms, and I went up to him and was like...
164
Yo, who sent out this month?
165
I never liked your face, you no good bum!
166
See you in housing court, you blood sucking leech!
167
You didn't see the inside?
168
Well, I mean, I had to grab it.
169
This is New York.
170
I had to snatch it up.
171
You poor dear.
172
You know how apartments go.
173
I know, honey.
174
There are eight million hovels in the naked city, and you just got yourself one of them.
175
Oh, make way for ugly furniture!
176
Why are we taking this monstrosity?
177
It's a housewarming gift from the fox.
178
Oh, it's a heavy housewarming gift.
179
Are you serious?
180
Check out the claws.
181
This couch needs a pedicure really bad.
182
You know, this way of changing my life deals, it's gonna work out fine.
183
I'm sure.
184
Today, I am a man.
185
Oh, I'm afraid to look.
186
What was that?
187
What was that?
188
The fire hydrant?
189
Today, you are a stupid man.
190
Welcome to my low down love shack.
191
My super fat sinbed.
192
My space age bachelor pad, if you will.
193
I won't.
194
Kitty, come here.
195
Come here.
196
Aw, kitty, kitty, kitty.
197
Come on.
198
Give me kisses.
199
Oh, look, you've got a microwave.
200
That's the refrigerator.
201
Did I ever tell you about the time I lived in an air shaft?
202
Was that before or after the bank vault?
203
Hey, look, it's a window and a metaphor for your life.
204
This couch smells like a litter box.
205
Yeah, it's got that 70s porno movie smell so popular with today's youth.
206
I don't think that's popular with anyone.
207
Speak for yourself.
208
Well, I guess we got to chuck it.
209
Sure it'd be a pain getting this mother down the stairs.
210
Why don't we just throw it out the window?
211
Goat, your devotion to laziness astounds me.
212
Me and laziness?
213
Like that.
214
Well, it's worth a try.
215
Chaka, you and Mecca stand out front, all right?
216
Make sure no one gets in the way.
217
You think you can handle that?
218
Whatever, Alex.
219
You act like I'm Miss Irresponsible or something.
220
You're cool.
221
No one's coming.
222
The first transport is away.
223
You can fly. Be free.
224
Fly like the wind.
225
Yo, here's the mother load.
226
Get out of the way.
227
Yo, you want a couch on your head?
228
Oh my God, I forgot to tell you.
229
Jimmy like swears up and down that Siam forced him to go out with her.
230
Are you serious?
231
What are you saying exactly?
232
Yo, hey, are we in the clear?
233
Yeah, whatever, throw it!
234
She like threatened him, but I told him like...
235
She'd be like, everybody...
236
Oh my God!
237
Oh my God!
238
Yeah, nice Chaka, real nice.
239
You want those crazy PETA people on my ass?
240
Watch what you're doing.
241
All right, chill out.
242
I'm on top of it.
243
You got tons of room.
244
Okay, but watch yourself.
245
This could get ugly.
246
Right.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
