English Original
A drunk man was proudly showing off his new apartment to two friends late one night.
He led them to his bedroom, where a large brass gong and a mallet stood.
"What's with that big brass gong?" one guest asked.
"It's not a gong. It's a talking clock," the drunk replied.
"A talking clock? Seriously?" his friend asked, astonished.
"Yup," said the drunk.
"How does it work?" the friend inquired, squinting at it.
"Watch," the drunk replied.
He picked up the mallet, struck the gong with an ear-shattering pound, and stepped back. The three men stood looking at each other for a moment.
Suddenly, a voice from the other side of the wall screamed, "Hey, jerk! It's one-fifteen in the morning!"

一天深夜,一个醉汉正自豪地向他的两位朋友炫耀自己的新公寓。
他领着他们来到卧室,里面立着一面巨大的黄铜锣和一把锣槌。
"那个大铜锣是干什么用的?"一位客人问道。
"那不是锣。那是一个会说话的钟,"醉汉回答。
"会说话的钟?真的吗?"他的朋友惊讶地问。
"是的,"醉汉说。
"它怎么工作?"朋友眯着眼打量着它,询问道。
"看着,"醉汉回答。
他拿起锣槌,对着锣猛地敲了一下,声音震耳欲聋,然后退后一步。三个人站在那里面面相觑了片刻。
突然,墙的另一边传来一声尖叫:"嘿,混蛋!现在可是凌晨一点十五分!"
