1
But times are changing.
2
The rules are changing.
3
So I don't know how much longer this is gonna be okay.
4
I'll tell you what happened to me and why I brought that up.
5
I did a podcast.
6
And before I went into the studio,
7
I'm talking to the producer outside.
8
And the producer's really excited and happy.
9
And she's like, Gabriel Iglesias,
10
we're so excited to have you.
11
This is really cool.
12
Before you go in, the host wanted me to ask you something before you go in for your interview.
13
I go, sure, go for it.
14
Okay, what do you identify as?
15
I wasn't sure how to answer that.
16
I'm 47 years old.
17
I didn't know what to say.
18
I was like, shit, hungry, I guess.
19
I mean, I'm tired, sleepy, depressed on Tuesdays.
20
I don't know what you want me to say.
21
See, here's the thing.
22
I knew what she was trying to ask me.
23
I just wasn't trying to get involved in a conversation about something that has absolutely nothing to do with me.
24
This was, yeah.
25
I felt like I was being baited because no matter how I answered that question,
26
I was going to find myself in an awkward situation.
27
So, you know, because for me,
28
I was just like, let me just be funny.
29
But nowadays you can't just not answer the question.
30
Because silence is seen as a problem.
31
And I'm sorry if me not answering a certain question is considered a problem.
32
I was brought up during a time where you were constantly told to mind your business.
33
That's all I'm trying to do is stay in my lane.
34
Another thing we were constantly told was, always respect your elders.
35
And no matter what generation you were from,
36
that was at least the one thing we could always agree on until now.
37
Now older people are seen as a problem.
38
They are.
39
You know and I understand the youth of today has the technology in the palm of their hands
40
and you can google just about anything But you cannot google life experience Okay
41
You can't you can't download struggling you can't download failure You can't download these moments
42
that help build you up to make you a better person And so,
43
again, for me, I chose to stay in my lane and just crack jokes when the girl asked me the question.
44
She got very upset.
45
She got very offended.
46
Oh, as soon as I cracked the joke,
47
she's like, no, no, no,
48
that's not what I mean.
49
I mean, what are your pronouns?
50
What?
51
What are your pronouns?
52
For example, are you a they or a them?
53
A they?
54
Or a them?
55
How fat am I?
56
When did I stop being a it?
57
Apparently I ate myself into a plural, that's what happened.
58
What I'm finding is even if you have good intentions and you're just trying to be cool,
59
you can still find yourself in a situation.
60
So I'll tell you what else happened to me, okay?
61
I was at a McDonald's.
62
That's not even the joke, but okay.
63
Already they're like, this is gonna be good.
64
No!
65
I was at a McDonald's by my house.
66
The McDonald's by my house is actually a twofer.
67
It's a McDonald's on the corner,
68
and it's also a gas station.
69
I got a big SUV.
70
I knew it was gonna be a minute,
71
so I said, let me go get some nuggets while I'm here.
72
I walk into the McDonald's,
73
and as I'm walking in,
74
I couldn't help but notice this homeless family sitting right outside.
75
Now, they didn't have a sign,
76
they did not ask me for money,
77
but you could just tell.
78
You could just tell that this poor family is dealing with life.
79
So I get inside and I said, you know what?
80
I don't need anything to eat.
81
I really don't.
82
At this point, it's just a habit.
83
I get to the register and I says,
84
you know what, let me order some food for the family.
85
They got kids with them.
86
So I placed an order and the cashier's like, Anything else?
87
Actually, yes.
88
Do you have, um, um, wet naps?
89
Excuse me?
90
You know, wet naps to clean your hands.
91
Sir, you're more than welcome to use the restroom.
92
I'll give you the code.
93
Here's the thing.
94
It's not for me.
95
It's for the homeless family that's right outside the door.
96
I want to make sure that the little kids can clean their hands before they eat.
97
This food that I just ordered is for them.
98
And as we're talking...
99
Thank you.
100
As we're talking, the manager at the McDonald's is listening in to our conversation.
101
And she walks over, she's all nosy, right?
102
She's like, excuse me, I couldn't help but overhear the conversation.
103
Did you just say that this food is for the family outside?
104
Yeah, I hope that's okay.
105
Oh no, it is definitely okay.
106
Giving food to people who need food is definitely okay.
107
However, what you just called them is not okay.
108
What did I call them?
109
You said homeless.
110
Cause they are!
111
Look, shit!
112
He's licking the window!
113
Sir, you can't say that word anymore.
114
It's considered offensive.
115
Who complained?
116
Okay, well, if I'm not supposed to say the word homeless anymore,
117
What am I supposed to say instead of the word homeless?
118
Sir, the new politically correct term is actually unhoused when describing someone in an unfortunate situation like that.
119
You're kidding.
120
No, sir, I'm not kidding and please lower your voice.
121
How do you want me to lower my voice when you're saying something so ridiculous?
122
Well, sir, if you think it's ridiculous,
123
then clearly you are part of the problem, not the solution.
124
Oh, Miami, I wanted to get ghetto.
125
I wanted to get ghetto.
126
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, I wanted to go full Hialeah on them.
127
Thank you for coming, Hialeah.
128
So, yeah, I wanted to go off on her,
129
but I wanted to get ghetto,
130
but I couldn't because that is the regular McDonald's I go to.
131
You know what I'm saying?
132
I'm not trying to get banned.
133
The next one's far and Cass is a bitch, so I'm like, nah.
134
So I looked at her and I said,
135
okay, we're going to play this game.
136
Let's play this game.
137
From now on, I'm no longer fat.
138
According to you, I am now unexercised.
139
I did bro, she looked at me,
140
she's like, don't be ridiculous.
141
And I looked at her and I was like,
142
oh, oh, well if you think it's ridiculous,
143
then clearly you are part of the problem, not the solution.
144
And I grabbed the food and I walked out.
145
Now, second half of the story,
146
I walk over to the family, okay?
147
And I hand the bags of food to the mom.
148
And the mom was so nice.
149
She was just happy that someone thought of her and her kids.
150
She got very emotional.
151
She's like, I just want to say thank you.
152
You have no idea what you're doing for us right now.
153
This really means a lot.
154
Thank you.
155
And I had to ask the question.
156
I said, are you okay?
157
I don't know what you thought.
158
Some of you are like, don't do it!
159
Oh, I did it, that's why we're here, watch.
160
So I looked at her and I said, are you okay?
161
And she was like, no, unfortunately, we're not okay.
162
We're not, we've been homeless now for four days.
163
and I was like, um...
164
I don't know if you heard.
165
But, uh...
166
I didn't correct her.
167
I didn't correct her because I'm not a dick.
168
That's why I corrected her.
169
Thank you.

- Normal hızda cümle cümle tekrar edin; ritminiz konuşmacıyla aynı olana kadar her cümleyi yineleyin.
- Kendinizi kaydedin ve orijinaliyle karşılaştırın; pronoun, plural, lick gibi kelimelere özellikle dikkat edin.
Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?
Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
