and you decide as an adult that it is okay to play with a kid's toy.

到你覺得長大後仍玩樂高玩具其實也沒什麼不可

這故事與我當年只有四歲的孩子有關

我想："哎呀，我應該買給孩子樂高玩具"

It's totally appropriate for a four-year-old.

I turn to my wife and said, "Who are we buying this for?"

She's like, "Oh, us." I'm like, "Okay. All right. That's cool."

我問我老婆："糟糕，我們是要買給誰阿?"

Pretty soon it got a little bit out of control.

她說："喔，不然自己玩好了"。我回："好吧，我也挺喜歡這個的"

So we took a room downstairs in the basement

that had been used as sort of an Abu Ghraib annex.

所以我們就在地下室騰出一個房間

And we put down those little floor tiles,

My daughter -- the day we got it, I was tucking her in --

我女兒，這150磅的樂高送來的當天晚上，睡前我幫她蓋被

And she said, "No, the LEGO is the treasure."

然後她回說："不是，樂高才是寶貝"

And then she said, "Dad, we're LEGO rich."

然後她接著說："老爸，我們是樂高界的郭台銘"

you're like, "Oh, crap. Where am I going to put all this?"

你會想到："喔，我是豬嗎?我得幫這些東西好好找個家"

然後就開始逛貨櫃商店（註：美國賣儲物箱的賣場）

and then you start this crazy sorting process

So then you realize there are these conventions.

And you go to one of these conventions, and some dude built the Titanic.

接著你會注意到一些同好社團，會試著加入

在裡面你會發現，有很多吃飽閒著的人會打造像鐵達尼號這種大物

And then someone built this -- this is the Smith Tower in Seattle.

"還是一台拖車才能把這玩意兒載走"

有人還作了這個，西雅圖的史密斯大廈

But the Americans? Oh, we'll make some guns for LEGO, no problem.

但美國人呢?噢，我們一定要在樂高世界裡添購武器

you're like, "Whoa, this is a really nerdy crowd."

你覺得："唉呦，真是一大群怪人呀"

but that's like a couple of levels above furries.

except for the lady with the condoms in her pocket --

除了皮包裡永遠都有保險套的辣妹

"Am I part of this group? Like, am I into this?"

結果我發現自己跟他們越來越像

And I was just like, "Yeah, I guess I am.

"我跟這些人混在一起?" "我是這種人嗎?"

I'm kind of into this stuff, and I'm going to stop being embarrassed."

我已經變成這樣的人了，我不該感到尷尬丟臉

and you're like, "Well, the LEGO people in Denmark, they've got all this software

而且，丹麥的樂高總部發展了一套軟體

And so this is like this CAD program where you build it.

這個像CAD的軟體（註：運用電腦軟體製作並模擬實物設計）

you click the button and it shows up at your doorstep a week later.

And then some of the designs that people do

你只要點滑鼠，過一個星期實體就會送到你家門口了

The LEGO guys don't give you any royalties, strangely,

他們會把自己的作品放在樂高商店賣

but some user made this and then it sold.

真怪耶，樂高的老闆又不會付你設計版稅

there's an entire open-source, third-party,

如果這種CAD程式有所不足怎麼辦

讓你可以3D建模（用多邊形組合成立體模型）

3D渲染（在立體模型上貼顏色或材質）

and some of them sort of mimicking famous films

有些影片會模仿最受歡迎的電影

and people recreating all sorts of things.

用像小鉤子的手扣住車跑動的樣子
