be blue in the face

基本解釋

Then they could talk about her till they went blue in the face, Bertha Supple too, and Edy, little spitfire, because she would be twentytwo in November.
那樣，大家就會議論她，直到臉上發(fā)青。伯莎·薩波爾也不例外；還有小炮竹伊迪，因為十一月她就滿二十歲了。
The code that says: no synthetic blue jackets with body armour (they are for sissies like me), no full-face helmets (also for girly-men) and gloves are only to be worn in snowstorms.
規(guī)則是這么寫的：沒有合成的藍色的護體夾克（它們是為像我這樣的膽小鬼設計的），沒有全罩式安全帽（為娘娘腔的男人設計的），手套是只在暴風雪天戴的。
