Waking Up Late | 晚起之困

English Original

Three elderly men were discussing who had the most troublesome health issues.

The seventy-year-old said, "I have a real problem. Every morning at 7:30, I need to urinate, but I have to stand at the toilet for an hour because my urine barely trickles out."

"That's nothing," said the eighty-year-old. "Every morning at 8:30, I have to have a bowel movement, but I sit on the toilet for hours due to constipation. It's terrible."

The ninety-year-old replied, "You think you have problems? Every morning at 7:30, I urinate powerfully, and at 8:30, I have a smooth bowel movement."

He paused and added, "My real trouble is that I don't wake up until eleven."


中文翻译

三位老人在闲聊,争论谁的健康问题最麻烦。

七十岁的老人说:“我有个大问题。每天早上七点半,我都得小便,但得在厕所站上一个小时,因为尿几乎是一滴一滴地流出来。”

“那算什么,”八十岁的老人说。“每天早上八点半,我都得大便,但因为便秘,得在马桶上坐好几个小时。太难受了。”

九十岁的老人回答道:“你们觉得那叫问题?我每天早上七点半小便顺畅有力,八点半大便也畅通无阻。”

他停顿了一下,补充道:“我真正的麻烦是,我要睡到十一点才醒。”
