Intermediate 19: Remove Those Facebook Photos


Listen Later

Go ahead, say that you hate Facebook, but then be honest, how many times do you check it each day? Check up on old friends, find out whose birthday it is, post photos of yesterday’s party. In this lesson Andreia really didn’t want those pictures to go public. Too late, and everyone “likes” them a lot.

Dialogue

A: Você viu que a Sueli publicou as fotos de ontem no Facebook?
B: Não, não, não! Sério? Mas eu pedi que ela não mostrasse elas pra ninguém!
A: Eeee, É tarde demais pra isso Andreia. Aquela com você sentada com Wesley já tem mais de 80 curtidas e pelo menos 20 ou 30 comentários.
B: É por isso que eu detesto Facebook. A gente perdeu a noção de o que é público e o que não é.
A: Sei, mas confessa, essa foto de você com Wesley foi boa demais, não foi?
B: Não, não, foi terrível, e todo mundo agora vai curtir, ou amar, ou uau, ou invejar, ou eu sei lá o quê, menina.
A: E agora a Mariana adicionou um vídeo da YouTube com essas fotos de você e do Wesley, juntando tudo com aquela música, do Wesley Safadão, acho que o nome é “Parece que o vento.”
B: Não, não, não, não pode ser! Vou matar ela!
A: Mas pensando bem, se o Wesley for comparado com Wesley Safadão, isso quer dizer que você é a Ivete Sangalo! Nada mal Andreia, nada mal.
B: Mas fala sério Thays, você não acha feio que no FaceBook a gente perde o controle de tudo, menina.
A: É, pode ser, mas olha lá “Ivete Andreia”, você está linda nessa!
B: Tá bom, eu desisto, e pra falar a verdade você tem razão, né? nessa aqui, eu gosto muito do jeito que o Wesley está olhando pra mim.


A: Did you see that Sueli published the photos yesterday on Facebook?
B: No, no, no, really? But I asked her not to show them to anybody!
A: Oops, it’s too late for that Andreia. That one of you with Wesley has more than 80 likes, and at least 20 or 30 comments.
B: This is why I hate Facebook. People have lost their sense of what is public and what isn’t.
A: I know, but you have to admit that this photo of you with Wesley is really good, wasn’t it?
B: No, no, it was terrible, and now everyone is going to like it, or love it, or wow it, or envy or who knows what you call it, girl.
A: And now Mariana has added a video on YouTube of photos of you and Wesley, adding everything with that music from Wesley Safadão, I think it’s called “It seems that the wind.”
B: No, no, no, it can’t be. I'm going to kill her!
A: But if you think about it, if Wesley is compared to Wesley Safadão, that means that you are Ivete Sangalo! Not bad Andreia, not bad.
B: But tell me the truth Thays, don’t you think it’s bad that people lose all control on FaceBook?
A: Yes, it could be, but look at this “Ivete Andreia” you are beautiful in this one!
B: OK, I give up, and to tell you the truth you are right, I love the way that Wesley is looking at me.
