1
I purchased this so-called bottomless cup of soda not ten minutes ago, and yet I was barely out of the door when I discovered this!
2
But there's nothing wrong with your cup.
3
Are you trying to deny my consumer right to make bogus complaints to get free stuff?
4
Of course not, sir!
5
Bottomless just means you can refill it as much as you like.
6
Oh really?
7
Then I suggest you have a little chat with my friend.
8
OOOHWAMSTER!
9
He's a dictionary salesman.
10
Got me a good discount on this one.
11
Ah-ha!
12
Bottomless.
13
Adjective without a bottom.
14
I think this deserves a gesture of goodwill.
15
As you wish, sir!
16
A little help, please.
17
Are you okay, ma'am?
18
I've lost my little Timmy.
19
Can you help me find him?
20
Oh, sure!
21
What does he look like?
22
He's 5'10", about 200 pounds, red hair, a mustache.
23
Okay?
24
When was the last time you saw little Timmy?
25
1975. You mean here in the store?
26
No, in New Jersey.
27
I'm sorry, madam, but...
28
Can you call him on the PA, please?
29
But how could he possibly...
30
Can you call him, please?
31
Uh, could little Timmy come to the counter, please?
32
You've gotta sing his song if you want him to come.
33
But of course.
34
How does the song go?
35
Make me a cake and fill it with brisket The taste of your hands only sweetens the biscuit Mama's proud boy,
36
his belly is swollen Slathered in butter until it turns golden I'm really sorry,
37
madam, but I don't think little Timmy is going to turn up Mama!
38
Timmy!
39
Oh!
40
Okay, anything else we can do for you?
41
Yes, my baby's hungry.
42
I would like to purchase a cloth sack, a baseball bat, and a possum. Of course.
43
So just walk straight out of the mall, turn left, go to the police precinct, and ask the same question there.
44
They'll give you exactly what you need.
45
Thank you.
46
Here's a tip for your trouble.
47
Wait!
48
Yes, ma'am?
49
I would like to be moved closer to the window, please.
50
Sure, please change seats.
51
I said I would like to be moved closer to the window.
52
A little closer, please.
53
I said closer.
54
Closer.
55
Is this close enough, ma'am?
56
I said...
57
The view is terrible.
58
Oh my gosh, what the what is going on here?
59
If it's your first time dealing with a stick-up, don't worry, everything will be fine.
60
Just follow the procedure.
61
Okay, okay.
62
What are you doing?
63
He's not robbing us.
64
We're the bank.
65
It's our job to rob him.
66
Oh, right.
67
Uh, okay.
68
Drop your mortgage in the bank!
69
Please, I have children.
70
Good to know.
71
We'll come for them next.
72
Yes, yes, yes.
73
Pretty watch.
74
No, please!
75
It belonged to my grandpa!
76
You wanna try me?
77
I'll drop your credit score so low you won't even be able to get a loan at the library, punk!
78
Well, at least I'm leaving with my dignity.
79
No, we'll have that too.
80
Ya pants.
81
Put em in the bag.
82
Ugh, I feel dirtier than a rat who joined law enforcement
83
but actually had family connections to the mob and was turning police evidence over to the gangsters.
84
You mean like a rat who was a rat?
85
Yeah, I guess that's a better way of saying it.
86
Boys, I am very disappointed in you.
87
You forgot to sell him a payday loan at a thousand percent interest.
88
Ugh, disgusting.
89
This is unacceptable!
90
What seems to be the problem, sir?
91
This place is a scandal.
92
All of Mother Nature's creatures deserve to be free!
93
Run, my eight-legged brothers!
94
Ah!
95
Go!
96
You're free!
97
Maybe these little guys will be more grateful.
98
Well, I hope that was worth it.
99
Yes, because they're all free.
100
No, they're not.
101
They were $12,000.
102
Do you have a return policy?
103
Yep, you bring them to the store and get your money back.
104
Glad I didn't pay up front.
105
Fervitous Pizza, may I take your order?
106
Sure, one pepperoni coming up.
107
Are you sure this is the right address?
108
Good afternoon, I'm on my way.
109
Can you hold up your hand please?
110
Sure, uh, Darwin, raise her hand so she can see us.
111
No, your other hand.
112
The one holding the pizza.
113
No!
114
Thanks, I'm a pilot you see,
115
but I hate airplane food.
116
Wait, what about the money?
117
I just dropped it off. Where?
118
Somewhere over, Reno.
119
Over and out.
120
So it turns out wearing a store uniform is a grown-up version of having a sign on your back
121
that says kick me.
122
Yeah, I think the sign would say something ruder than that.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
