One of the oddest things about this presidency has been the way in which it marries bald falsehood with bald truth – if one takes the president’s unfiltered brain guff to be a kind of verisimilitude.
本届总统任期最奇怪的事情之一就是它将赤裸裸的谎言与赤裸裸的真相结合在一起——如果人们认为总统未经过滤的大脑胡言乱语是一种逼真的话。
—The Guardian
They are marching and protesting and taking no guff.

废话；胡说，瞎扯

短释义：
Sometimes guff is defined as “lies,” but it can also be simply ridiculous ideas or speech. Your teacher might dismiss your excuse for being late to class by saying, “That story’s just a bunch of guff!” The informal guff gets its sense of “empty talk” from its original meaning, “puff of air.” An unrelated but interesting kind of guff is the Scottish meaning, “an unpleasant smell.”
胡言乱语是一种愚蠢的行为——指的是你的行为或说话方式毫无意义或令人反感。你可能会认为一篇有争议的文章是一堆废话，从而驳回它。

有时胡言乱语被定义为“谎言”，但它也可能只是荒谬的想法或言论。你的老师可能会驳回你上课迟到的借口，说：“那个故事只是一堆废话！”非正式的胡言乱语从其原始含义“一阵风”中得到了“空话”的含义。一种不相关但有趣的废话是苏格兰语，意思是“难闻的气味”。
文学例句：
“Honest, Shorty,” says Chester, swallowin’ the string as fast as I could unwind the ball, “you—you don’t like that kind of guff, do you?”
“老实说，矮个子，”切斯特一边说，一边以我解开球的速度尽快吞下绳子，“你——你不喜欢那种胡言乱语，是吗？”
—Side-stepping with Shorty by Ford, Sewell
She had just come off a twelve-hour shift at Mercy Hospital in Jersey City and was in no mood for guff.
