James:Ann, stop bugging Jess and help me order something new. Lattes are so passe these days.

Ann: Why don't you try an Americano? Espresso with water.

James:Sounds a little weak.

Ann: Go with a hammerhead then-espresso mixed with drip coffee.

James:Sounds better, but I hope it doesn't inspire me to take a hammer to the client's head.

Ann: Don't worry, James. We'll get this case worked out in no time.

bug (v.)

(俚)煩擾，激怒

Don't bug me. I'm trying to think!

別煩我。我正在試著思考!

passe (a.)

過時的，不流行的

The Internet is already passe.

網(wǎng)絡已經過時了。

詹姆士：小安，別再跟潔絲抬杠了，幫我點一些新口味。最近已經不流行喝那堤了。

小　安：你何不試試美式咖啡?濃縮咖啡加水。

詹姆士：聽來味道有點淡。

小　安：那就來杯榔頭咖啡吧——濃縮咖啡加一般滴濾式咖啡。

詹姆士：聽來好多了，但希望這不會讓我想拿榔頭敲客戶的腦袋。

小　安：別擔心，詹姆士。我們很快就會把這個案子解決掉。
