Train Delay | 火车晚点

点击查看中英对照

A few days after Christmas, a mother was working in the kitchen while listening to her young son play with his new electric train in the living room. She heard the train stop and her son announce, "All of you sons of bitches who want off, get the hell off now, 'cause this is the last stop! And all of you sons of bitches who are getting on, get your asses in the train, 'cause we're going down the tracks."

The mother was appalled and told her son, "We don't use that kind of language in this house. Go to your room and stay there for TWO HOURS. When you come out, you may play with your train, but you must use polite language."

Two hours later, the son came out and resumed playing with his train. Soon, the train stopped again. This time, the mother heard him say, "All passengers who are disembarking, please remember to take all your belongings with you. We thank you for riding with us today and hope you had a pleasant trip. We look forward to serving you again soon."

She then heard him continue, "For those of you just boarding, please stow all hand luggage under your seat. Remember, smoking is not permitted on the train. We hope you enjoy a pleasant and relaxing journey with us today."

Just as the mother began to smile, the child added, "For those of you who are upset about the TWO-HOUR delay, please see the bitch in the kitchen."
