Joke of the Day (每日笑话) #11

strange...

xiaohu 我知道，但是如果一个人留言我来和回答如果我实back在chinesepod after work. I have a time in the morning before work where I post and in the evening after work I log in again and check for comments. (sometimes I dont feel there is anything to reply so that I don´t know what to write back 但是谢谢你我真的喜你的回答)

yea, but why is she sleeping (/waiting) at the eating(?)table?

If I understand it correctly, his wife has his dinner ready waiting for him, but he's not hungry and goes straight to bed... He's just asking for trouble really. hehe

A simple one from 读者： 有个乡下女人，第一次进城打电话。她对接线员说：“接我的丈夫，我要跟他说话。”接线员问：“你丈夫的号码是多少？”女人大怒：“我哪有那么多丈夫要编成号码？”

Hello newbie Nelfie here. Is there a joke every day? Is there a translation? Please help a damsel in verbal distress.

Why strange? The guy is 4 hours late home from work, so his wife sets his alarm clock 4 hours earlier the next morning. ;)

jep Bazza has a posts a joke everyday, no it´s up to you to tranlsate it untill someone is that friendly to give out a translation ;-) (my sentence of the day post seems to drown in a hole and nobody notices...sad... ,-( )

Executer, 說實在的， 關於你的每日句子的問題是， 如果一句話根本不是轟動的，沒有人要來談到它而且有一次我把一留言貼在由你貼的留言板上但是後來你沒有貼你自己的回答！

thank you

xiaohu, have you just starting posting in traditional or have you always done that?

I try to post one everyday. My attempt at the translation: My friend, after finishing work, stayed late at the local pub. At about 10pm he returned home, his wife was sat at the dinner table waiting for him, she didn't blame or criticise him, and calmly asked him if he wanted something to eat. He wasn't hungry, so he went to bed. At 3:30am the alarm clock went off, he hurriedly got up and turned the light on, and after seeing the time he shouted at his wife asking for an explanation. "Oh," she claimly replied, "if it takes you 4 hours to get home from work, I think you also need the same time to get to work, therefore I don't want you to be late!" I didn't fully get this until just now, after working out a full translation. :D
