He Made His Own Lunch | 午饭是他自个做的

English Original

An Irishman, a Mexican, and a blonde man were doing construction work on the 30th floor of a building.

The Irishman opened his lunch box and said, "Corned beef and cabbage! If I get corned beef and cabbage one more time for lunch, I'm going to jump off this building."

The Mexican opened his lunch box and exclaimed, "Burritos again! If I get burritos one more time, I'm going to jump off, too."

The blonde opened his lunch and said, "Bologna again. If I get a bologna sandwich one more time, I'm jumping too."

The next day, the Irishman opened his lunch box, saw corned beef and cabbage, and jumped to his death. The Mexican opened his lunch, saw a burrito, and jumped too. The blonde opened his lunch, saw the bologna, and jumped to his death also.

At the funeral, the Irishman's wife wept and said, "If I'd known how tired he was of corned beef and cabbage, I never would have given it to him again!" The Mexican's wife also wept and said, "I could have given him tacos or enchiladas! I didn't realize he hated burritos so much." Everyone turned and stared at the blonde's wife. "Hey, don't look at me," she said. "He made his own lunch."


中文翻译

一个爱尔兰人、一个墨西哥人和一个金发男子在一栋楼的第三十层施工。

爱尔兰人打开饭盒说:“咸牛肉和卷心菜!下次午饭还吃咸牛肉和卷心菜,我就从这楼上跳下去。”

墨西哥人打开饭盒惊呼道:“又是玉米煎饼!下次如果还是玉米煎饼,我也跳下去。”

金发男子打开饭盒说:“又是大腊肠。下次如果还是大腊肠三明治,我也跳下去。”

第二天,爱尔兰人打开饭盒,看到咸牛肉和卷心菜,便跳楼身亡。墨西哥人打开饭盒,看到玉米煎饼,也跳了下去。金发男子打开饭盒,看到大腊肠,同样跳楼自杀了。

葬礼上,爱尔兰人的妻子哭泣着说:“如果我知道他这么讨厌咸牛肉和卷心菜,我决不会再给他吃!”墨西哥人的妻子也哭着说:“我本可以给他做玉米卷或辣酱玉米饼的!我没发现他这么讨厌玉米煎饼。”每个人都转过身,盯着金发男子的妻子。“嘿,别看我,”她说,“午饭是他自个做的。”
