Chat attack hoarder/囤积者/ ( t% n j~ zh0)

A: I recently bought a lot of things online. A lot of them were doubles.

最近我在网上买了好多­东西,有好些都是重复的商品。( zu# j# n w6 z3i w2ngsh3ng m2ile h2odu4 d4ngx~, y6u h2oxi8 d4ush# ch5ngf& de sh` ngp@ n.) B: You mean something like a towel and you want to buy different colors?你是说例如一条毛巾,想要买不同花色这样吗? ( n@ sh# shu4 l# r% y# ti1o m1oj~ n, xi2ng y3om2i b& t5ng hu` s- zh- y3ng m`?)

A: Yup. I always feel that each color I see is so beautiful so I just buy them. But I have also discovered that they don’t have much use. I basically throw them in a corner, but I can’t bring myself to throw them out.对啊,我总觉得每个颜色都很­漂亮,就买下来,但是,又发现它们没有特别大­的用处,基本上都被扔在角落,又舍不得扔。( du#`, w6 z6ng ju9d9 m0igy1ns- d4u h0n pi3oli3ng, j# u m2ixi3l1i, d3nsh#, y7u f` xi3n t` m9n m9iy6u t- bi9 d3 de y7ngch&, j~ b0n sh3ng d4ub- i r8ngz3i ji2olu7, y7u sh0b& d9 r8ng.)

B: You better be careful. This could lead to developing a bad hoarding habit.

那你要注意了,这样很有可能养成囤积­物品的不良习惯。

( n3 n@ y3o zh& y# le, zh- y3ng h0n y6u k0n9ng y2ngch9ng t% nj~ w& p@ n de b& li1ng x! gu3n.) A: Yeah. I’ve heard of a psychologi­cal condition called compulsive hoarding. They keep adding new things and can’t bring themselves to throw out the large amount of useless things they have hoarded.是啊,我听说过一种叫囤积强­迫症的心理问题,病人在不停添置新东西­时,还舍不得扔掉囤积的东­西。
