自己卷
鸭绒25(译)
2024年9月11日
一名男子走进一家药店,在货架的过道里走来走去。
女店员注意到了他,问他是否需要帮助。
他回答说,他正在为妻子找一盒卫生棉。
售货员将他带到存放该商品的货架位置。
几分钟后,他把一大袋棉花球和一团线放到柜台上。
女店员困惑地说:“先生,我以为你是在为妻子找卫生棉。”
他回答说:“你看,情况是这样的。昨天,我让妻子去商店给我买一盒香烟。她回来时拿了一罐烟草和一些卷烟纸。因为这样买,价钱便宜得多。所以,我想,如果我必须自己卷烟……那她也得自己卷卫生棉。”
原文: Roll Your Own
A man walks into a pharmacy and wanders up and down the aisles。
The sales girl notices him and asks him if she can help him。
He answers that he is looking for a box of tampons for his wife。
She directs him down the correct aisle。A few minutes later,he deposits a huge bag of cotton balls and a ball of string on the counter。
She says,confused:“Sir,I thought you were looking for some tampons for your wife?”
He answers:“You see,it's like this,yesterday,I sent my wife to the store to get me a carton of cigarettes,and she came back with a tin of tobacco and some rolling papers,cause it's so much cheaper。So,I figure if I have to roll my own……so does she。”
