小孩子為什么這么喜歡聽(tīng)老師的表?yè)P(yáng)呢？因?yàn)槔蠋煴頁(yè)P(yáng)他們的時(shí)候給他們吃了“自我華夫餅”，不過(guò)這種華夫餅也不能吃太多，吃多了就會(huì)變成人人討厭的自大狂。

Ego waffles are “waffles made out of ego” which are usually consumed by narcissistic people in order to sustain a delicate ego. Everybody enjoy ego waffles.

“自我華夫餅”是“用自我做成的華夫餅”，自戀的人為了保護(hù)自己脆弱的自尊心而常常“食用”這種“餅”。人人都喜歡吃“自我華夫餅”。

Compliments are the most common ego waffles that people eat. An ego waffle from time to time can boost one’s confidence, but too much ego waffles will turn you into an egomania.

贊美是最普遍的“自我華夫餅”。偶爾吃一塊“自我華夫餅”可以增強(qiáng)一個(gè)人的自信心，但是吃得太多就會(huì)變成自大狂。

Example:

That woman is so full of herself, I'll bet she ate ego waffles for breakfast.

瞧她那個(gè)自高自大的樣兒，我打賭她早飯一定吃了“自我華夫餅”。
