男人陪女人逛街有多慘 看了這組圖就知道了

“Just one more shop!” — the dreaded words every man fears, and no man believes.
“最后再看看這家！”——男士們最怕聽到這句話，他們也知道這絕對不會是最后一家。

A hilarious Instagram account has surfaced called “Miserable Men”, which features a series of photos of downtrodden men who have involuntarily been taken out shopping.
Instagram上有一個搞笑主頁，名字直截了當就叫“悲慘男人”，里面是各種慘被拉去陪逛街的男性的照片。

The feed perfectly captures the response that women all around the world expect to receive when they try to make a shopping partner out of their significant other — anguish, despair and sheer misery.
世界各地的女性在讓另一半陪自己逛街時，一定也都會預料到他們最終的這個樣子：郁悶、絕望、痛苦至極。而這個Instagram主頁完美捕捉到了男人們的這些痛苦瞬間。

The feed features miserable men of all shapes and sizes — despondent dads, bummed-out boyfriends and even a couple of gloomy granddads — painstakingly waiting to escape from the insufferable purgatory that is the mall.
這些“痛苦男性們”有高有矮，有胖有瘦，有的是陪女兒來，有的是陪女友來，甚至還有幾位是陪孫女來的……總之都是一副失魂落魄、垂頭喪氣的樣子，隨時準備逃離這煉獄般的商場。

Other than documenting the plight of miserable men worldwide, the account acts as a sort of support group, too.
除了真實記錄下男人們的悲慘處境，主頁君還熱心地為這些男同胞支招兒。

Captions offer helpful nuggets of advice such as, “Don't forget to charge your phones so you have something to do for the next 4 hours,” and, “Remember #miserablemen, when she asks if it looks good, tell her it looks great.”
這些啟發性的建議包括：“別忘了提前給手機充電，這樣你在接下來4小時的等待中才不至于完全沒事兒做。”“記住‘悲慘君’的這句話——當她問自己穿那件衣服好不好看時，一定要說‘棒極了’。”
