Hey all, a English lesson on the saying: a can of worms.

This

refers to something that is deep that is messy when you dig deeper into it. It normally takes a lot out of the person to explain it, and there often isn't a clear solution either.

If somebody tells you that there are worms in a can, would you still open it? Upon opening the can, the worms are henceforth destined to roam freely and never return to their can in a clean state.

So when people say: don't bother, it's a can of worms... this means that it's hard to explain and not worth our time.

When people say: that's opening a can of worms... this means that it's a deep topic, intertwined with a lot of bullsh**, so please skip the topic.

大家，我教你们一个英文的俗话，就是

A can of worms

意思就是有一个不好解释的问题，而且如果要清楚地解释，需要浪费很多时间，很多精力，也没有好的解释或者结尾。讲给别人也感觉费劲。

这是因为一个罐头是封了。如果里面明明是蠕虫，你们会打开吗？如果你打开，蠕虫会到处走，收拾不了，不能回到之前的状态。

所以如果有人说

Don't bother, it's a can of worms

这就证明这个话题是非常非常非常难解释，所有如果觉得已经没有兴趣，那就求求你跳过这个话题。

如果有人说

That's opening a can of worms

这是证明这个话题很深，有很多乱七八糟的事情，尽量别问。
