英文释义
名词 n.
-
Useless items; junk; clutter; (originally) a force of entropy.
— “Kipple is useless objects, like junk mail or match folders after you use the last match or gum wrappers or yesterday’s homeopape. When nobody’s around, kipple reproduces itself. For instance, if you go to bed leaving any kipple around your apartment, when you wake up the next morning there’s twice as much of it. It always gets more and more.”
词源
Popularized in Philip K. Dick's novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? (1968); originally the name of a SF fanzine, from the humorous interpretation of Kipling as a participle.
