参考译文
Ladies, don’t try to lose any more weight, because no matter how hard you try, you’ll never be slim enough! Do you know the official definition for slimness? Remember the following, as it’s going to save you lots of money, time and suffering. Listen: The official definition is: Lose 10 more pounds!
But, ladies, stop being silly. To your fellow ladies, you’ll never look beautiful. Can’t you see that?

This is sick, because no man really likes women to be so skinny.

So why do you ladies still try to lose more weight?
It is because modern women no longer care what men think.
Dear ladies, do you know that, in order to attune myself to your sense of beauty, I have started training myself to stare at a lamppost each day, because that is what you look like after you have lost all that weight.

1. Ladies and Gentlemen: Welcome to this sales promotion. We are a registered US Limited Liability Company, one of the top 10 dealers of mobile phones. We are very pleased to present the latest mobile device—the MT 100 to you today. It is sure to become our best-selling product: at the top of the range.
So how much do you have to lose till you are called slim?
You are skinny. No, I need to lose 10 more pounds.
You’ve lost 10 pounds. No, I’ll be slim if I can still lose 10 more pounds. This goes on, until you weigh no more than 30 pounds.
What you think is: “I’m not beautiful until all my fellow ladies think I’m beautiful. You men might think I’m slim enough, but if my fellow ladies think I’m not trying hard enough, I’ll lose more.”
