Allergy to Lies | 对谎言过敏

点击查看中英对照

A political speaker was annoyed by a man in the audience who coughed, sneezed, and blew his nose almost constantly.

Finally, the speaker could stand it no longer. He politely said to the man, "You seem to be having so much discomfort. If you go out for some fresh air, it might be good for your cold."

The man replied, "I don't have a cold. I'm just allergic to lies."
