I'm still vertical.
这句话是什么意思啊?
还有,有没有哪个牛人叫Jackson Wayfare的?
那个Jackson Wayfare不用管了,我知道是谁了。
各位就帮我翻译那句话吧,谢谢了。
原文
well as my grandmother used to say, "i'm still vertical." she and i used to laugh and talk a lot, and that was her dry humor until the day she died and told me a few hours before, that I was a good granddaughter and go eat and ice cream to celebrate her life, because each life has a beginning, a middle and an end. she rocked. so here's to thinking and feeling you want to croak because life is crappy and still vertical at the end of the day. i guess that's my not so eloquent answer to her wisdom, but damn just don't give up. i can't so you can't either.

根据你给出的上下文,我觉得这个grandmother想表达的是生活充满了坎坷崎岖life is crappy,但是不能轻言放弃!而这个孙女认为奶奶的话是枯燥无趣的幽默dry humor,那么很清楚了,奶奶想表达的意思是“我还是直的”,也就是没死的意思,中文中应该也有相似的表达,但是一时想不起啦。呵呵,还是蛮有意思的...

我依然是正直的。 我认为这是个双关语,既体现在形体上又体现在心理上结合上下文的意思,就是说,作者的祖母说“我还活着”...
