English Original
My father, who was 14 years older than my mother, had been working on his will. At a family dinner, he told us that he had provided well for Mother, but the family home would go to us five children if she remarried.
"I don't want another S.O.B. toasting his shins around my fireplace," he explained.
With a sly grin, Mother cracked, "What makes you think I'd marry another S.O.B.?"

我的父亲比母亲年长十四岁,他一直在处理自己的遗嘱。在一次家庭晚餐上,他告诉我们,他已经为母亲做好了充足的安排,但如果她再婚,家里的房子将归我们五个孩子所有。
他解释道:“我可不想让另一个混蛋围着我的壁炉烤他的小腿取暖。”
母亲带着狡黠的笑容,打趣道:“你怎么会认为我会再嫁给另一个混蛋呢?”
