"他们已经谈了这么久,以至于他们忘了自己本来应该抱怨什么。"

Agatha Christie

Simplified Meaning:

When people keep talking about something for a long time, they sometimes forget the main issue that started the conversation. Imagine friends complaining about a problem in their neighborhood. At first, they discuss the broken streetlight. But after hours of talking, they start chatting about other things like unsavory ads in the area or the neighbor's loud dog and forget about the streetlight. This shows how conversations can drift away from the real problem, making it harder to solve. It’s important to stay focused on what needs to be fixed instead of talking endlessly. To apply this to your life, when you have an issue, try to stick to the main point and find a solution instead of letting the discussion go off-track. This way, you can address the problem effectively without getting distracted by less important things.
