Preparing for economic apocalypse

I’ve been reading the news. And despite what Bernake says, I don’t think we’re on the cusp of recovery. Granted, I don’t have his fancy PHD (or whatever he has) or his vast experience wrecking the economy. But my indicators say that if unemployment continues, we don’t produce anything and the financial system can only survive by ripping off the middle and lower classes who are tapped out, then something’s got to give.

Just like many people prepare for Armageddon or nuclear winter, it’s equally important to be ready, just in case the unspeakable happens… You know what I’m talking about.

Here are some translations for some phrases you’ll need to know:

You want fries with that? : 您希望与该薯条？

Take my house and my car, but please don’t take my internet access!: 请不要把我的房子！

I hope you accept payment in pennies: 我希望你接受硬币付款。

I would gladly repay you Tuesday for a pork bun today: 我会很高兴地报答你的猪肉包今天星期二
