My wife has this thing, it's called ADHD.
2
Do you guys know what this is?

It's not ADD, by the way.
4
That one's different.
5
That's the one you diagnose yourself.
6
That's where people are like, Oh, sorry, I tuned out of your story.
7
I have ADD.
8
No, you suck.
9
You're addicted to your phone.
10
You need to take responsibility.
11
ADHD, that one's a little more intense, all right?

She had to go to a hospital to get that H.
13
Now, when she went to the doctor,
14
the doctor was like, you have what's called ADHD.
15
And she was like, what?
16
And he was like, this is the third time I told you.
17
Please stop coming back here.
18
Now, if you don't know what ADHD is, you probably knew someone in school who had it.
19
Alright?
20
ADHD kids, they were always like the weird kid in class.
21
Alright?
22
The one that does this shit.
23
The weird kid.
24
You know, not the quiet one, not the quiet emo that's to themselves weird.

Do you wear eyeliner on the weekends?
31
You're always in eyeliner.
32
I noticed that it's also black.
33
Did you know black is the absence of color?
34
I have a hoodie as well that's black but it's reversible with the blue.
35
Technically that's one color and no color.
36
That's how they fucking talk, by the way.
37
I would cut myself too.
38
Now, people with ADHD, they get hyper-focused and easily distracted at the exact same time.
39
So that means they are really good at starting projects Did you feel how unsatisfying that was?
40
That was a polite way of saying they're good at making a mess in my living room all the time
41
Because what happens is is she will get started on something
42
and then she sees movement So then she starts doing whatever this thing is
43
and then a sound goes off So then she's doing whatever
44
that and then her phone happens and those so that it's like it's like Living with a Roomba,
45
you know, it's just you follow the trail of broken dreams until she's stuck in the corner somewhere
46
And there's just there's just things it just it looks like Etsy took a shit in our house.
47
It's just miscellaneous random things But she has good intentions,
48
and I guess that that counts for something.
49
So this is what she'll do.
50
She'll say something like, okay, I'm gonna clean.
51
And then she will start the vacuum,
52
and she'll follow that until it hits the coffee table.
53
Which wobbles, because she hit her head.
54
She doesn't remember.
55
So the coffee table wobbles, and she goes, Oh, no, that's uneven.
56
So she will begin to disassemble the coffee table,
57
but she only takes apart the two legs that are nearest to her, all right?
58
So the table becomes lopsided, oblivious to the very full coffee mug that comes sliding down onto the carpet.
59
Now there's a stain.
60
This is cleaning, by the way.
61
Don't forget.
62
And she goes, oh no, there's a stain.
63
I should probably get a paper towel to clean that up.
64
So she goes over to the kitchen to grab a paper towel.
65
She's in a completely different room now, okay? That room is done.
66
It's over, all right?
67
It's a distant memory at this point.
68
Box it up.
69
It doesn't matter.
70
And she goes, okay, what will I do in the kitchen today?
71
My goodness.
72
The world is my oyster with this kitchen.
73
I could do anything.
74
Maybe I'll start a project.
75
I'll bake a pie from scratch.
76
That's what I should do.
77
Should be a very small project.
78
I should be hungry in about 8 to 10 hours.
79
I will build a pie.
80
Oh, it looks like we're all out of paper towels.
81
I'm gonna go to the store.
82
That's what I'll do.
83
I'm just gonna head out and I'll go right to the store.
84
Oh, wait, what's going on with the vacuum?
85
What happened over here?
86
It's like she becomes a detective who discovers her own crime scene.
87
She's like, I've never seen the table like this.
88
What happened with the vacuum?
89
Why is this going on?
90
I'm like, bitch, you're the murderer.
91
What are you talking about?
92
And then she rediscovers the stain and goes, oh, that's right, the coffee, because of the stain.
93
I went to go get paper towels, but we're out of paper towels.
94
I need to blot this.
95
So she'll take her shirt off and start to blot the stain.
96
Literally, I come in from the next room, the vacuum's running, my table's broken, she's naked, a baby's crying, we don't have kids.
97
I'm I'm like, what the fuck is going on?
98
And she goes, I was gonna do a load of laundry.
99
And then I don't see her for four days and three nights.
100
She does meth, I think.
101
I don't know my wife.
102
She collects rocks.
103
I do not care if they identify as crystals.
104
They are rocks.
105
They are everywhere, bro.
106
They're all over our home.
107
They're on the window sills, and in the drawers, on the toilet seat.
108
We live in a quarry.
109
We live outside.
110
We're homeless, I think.
111
I don't know.
112
And she won't let me get rid of them because she claims that they have powers.
113
highlighted by the planets, the stars, and the Mercury's and Venus's anus or whatever.
114
I try to throw them out and she's like, you don't even know what they're doing for you.
115
Don't you feel so protected?
116
I was like, yeah, if we get a slingshot, we're in business business.
117
All we have is ammo right now.
118
We have nothing.
119
Every day she gets a new rock.
120
Every single day she gets a new one because there's this little meditation guru center spa, find your, heal your clitoris chakra, whatever thing.
121
Every day she goes there and right when she walks in, the clerk, he pops up and goes, My customer." And then...
122
And then he sells her some rock that he found outside on his smoke break, probably.
123
And while he's selling it, he winks at me.
124
I'm like, you're a piece of shit.
125
You know she has a problem.
126
And when she gets outside the store,
127
she just goes, Oh, I just feel so grounded.
128
I'm like, yeah, babe, you got a pocket full of rocks right now.
129
If you were a corpse, you would sink.
130
What are you, insane?
131
That's physics.
132
One day we were on a walk outside or at home and we stumble upon this well, okay?
133
It's a very shallow well.
134
It's about two to three feet.
135
It's very shallow.
136
I could get out of it.
137
Okay, don't all laugh. That hurts.
138
We stumble upon this well, and at the bottom of this well, there is a squirrel that's hanging at the bottom of this well, okay?
139
And here's how I react whenever I see a squirrel.
140
It's a squirrel.
141
My wife has a very different...
142
spiritual...
143
moment.
144
I don't know why.
145
I don't know her connection to the squirrel.
146
I don't know if it's because, like, they're equally as twitchy.
147
I don't know...
148
I feel like they're talking shit about me.
149
I don't know.
150
So she sees the squirrel and she goes, babe, quick.
151
Lend me your shoe.
152
I will lower it down by the laces and we'll hoist them up like it's a squirrel elevator.
153
I was like, I love that you think just because we lower a shoe down there,
154
a squirrel will willingly get in it and leave with us like we are his family.
155
And she goes, you're right, we should build a ladder so he can leave on his own terms.
156
And I was like, that's not at all what I said.
157
So I go about my adult life.
158
I come home later to discover my wife is sitting in the middle of the living room.
159
The glue gun is on. So I'm too late.
160
And what she's done is she has taken two of my shoelaces and she laid them out vertically.
161
And then she hot glued popsicle sticks.
162
We did not have popsicle sticks, by the way.
163
We had a box of popsicles.
164
Can you guess what happened next?
165
This chick has got brain freeze and purple lips and is doing arts and crafts in my living room.
166
I'm like, whose toddler am I babysitting right now?
167
With my laptop open to a Google search that says, how tall are squirrels?
168
I was like, really?
169
For squirrels you say tall?
170
So, she collects the ladder just like so.
171
We're heading back to the well.
172
My shoes are much looser." And just before she releases I notice that there is a note attached.
173
And I was like, hey babe,
174
is that a note for the squirrel?
175
And she goes, no, that's so people read it and know not to remove the ladder. And I was relieved.
176
Because I needed to know how far on the spectrum of this she was.
177
And so she takes the ladder in very dramatic fashion.
178
She unfurls and fa-fa-fa-fa-fa.
179
That's a pretty good ladder.
180
I don't know what the sound they make, but that's...
181
Whatever, tickle your fancy.
182
Rikki-tikki-tikki!
183
Ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-pah!
184
She unfurls the ladder, and I swear to God,
185
the squirrel looked at the ladder and just got out on his own.
186
And she goes, it worked.
187
I'm going to knit a scarf.
188
And that is my whole life.
189
Every day is that day, all right?
190
I live with a make-a-wish kid all the time.
191
So I'm just like, all right, let's follow your dreams, I guess.
192
We'll see what happens.
193
Now, people who stutter, we tend to do it more when we're feeling nervous or agitated, frustrated, overwhelmed.
194
And there was one particular day where both mine and my wife's issues,
195
my stutter and But her ADHD came together for one beautiful, awful storm.
196
I came home from shows.
197
It had just been an exhausting day.
198
And very lovingly, my wife noticed.
199
So she asked.
200
She goes, hey babe, what's the matter?
201
And what I said at the time was, it's nothing.
202
It's just today I'm feeling very stressed.
203
But at the time that I said it, I stuttered on the word stressed,
204
so it sounded like st-st-st-st-st-st-st-st-st-st-st-st-st.
205
This chick started dancing...
206
She was like, that was a sick beat, babe.
207
I was like, yeah, we should start a band and not finish it.

什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
