i partied my tail off 大大小小宴个天昏地暗、没完没了的会 Explanation: 「我参加过许多宴会。说真格的,大大小小宴个天昏地暗、没完没了的会。」她说着又补上一句:「到头来总有个时候,你会知道宴够会啦。」 也凑个热闹吧。 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 22 mins (2004-07-21 06:50:52 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- 把「宴会」改为「派对」也行。这里指的是那种狂饮滥欢加上也许滥交的派对。 |

i partied my tail off I partied my ass off (= I partied very hard) Explanation: cf work your ass/butt off (mainly US offensive) = to work very hard eg I worked my ass off for that man. like 'laugh/shout/scream etc your head off' (informal) = to laugh, shout, scream etc. very noisily and for a long time. eg There I was lying face down on the pavement and you two were laughing your heads off! => party your tail off = party a great deal, all the time, as hard as you can go (imagine dancing a lot, shake it...)
