English Original
A man sat alone at a bar, staring silently at his drink for over half an hour. A burly man playing pool noticed this odd behavior. Driven to distraction, the burly man walked over, grabbed the drink, and gulped it down. The first man immediately burst into tears.
"Come on, man, I was just joking," said the burly man. "I'll buy you another drink. I just can't stand to see a man cry."
"No, it's not that," the man at the bar replied. "Today is the worst day of my life. First, I overslept and was late for work. My furious boss fired me. When I went to my car, I found it had been stolen, and the police said they couldn't help. I took a cab home, only to realize I'd left my wallet and credit cards inside. The cab driver just laughed and drove away. When I finally got home, I found my wife in bed with the gardener. I left and came to this bar. Just as I was thinking about ending my life, you showed up and drank my poison!"

一个男人独自坐在酒吧里,一言不发地盯着他的酒,看了半个多小时。一个正在打台球的壮汉注意到了这奇怪的行为。壮汉被弄得心烦意乱,便走过去,抓起那杯酒一饮而尽。坐在吧台的男人立刻哭了起来。
"嘿,老兄,我只是开个玩笑,"壮汉说。"我再给你买一杯。我就是看不得男人哭。"
"不,不是因为这个,"吧台边的男人回答道。"今天是我生命中最糟糕的一天。首先,我睡过头上班迟到了。我愤怒的老板解雇了我。我去开车时,发现车被偷了,警察说他们无能为力。我打车回家,结果发现把钱包和信用卡落在车上了。出租车司机只是笑了笑就开走了。当我终于到家时,发现我的妻子和园丁在床上。我离开家,来到了这个酒吧。就在我考虑结束自己生命的时候,你出现了,还喝掉了我的毒药!"
