人生在世，谁不会做点白日梦呢？

我却总是做着不劳而获、一夜暴富的美梦。

谁也知道这些 daydream 多半是无稽之谈，但“想想”嘛，想又不犯罪，当然是怎么爽怎么来咯！

用英语来说，也就是 when pigs flys，等到🐖会飞了，咱们一个个的，也就圆梦了。

six of one and half a dozen of the other

• “Shall we give her chocolates or flowers?”“I don’t know, it’s six of one and half a dozen of the other.”“我们应该送她巧克力还是花呢？”“不知道，都差不多。”
  

• “Do you prefer doing audio or video?” “Oh, it’s six of one and half a dozen of the other.”“你更喜欢做音频还是视频呢？”“都差不多吧。”
