幽默笑話精粹17：愛爾蘭人的運氣

Two Irish lovers are sitting on a bench, in a park. They are holding hands，but the lady is nervously twisting her hands.

一對愛爾蘭情侶坐在公園里的長椅上。他們手牽著手，但是那個女的一直緊張地擺弄她的雙手。

Mary: “Patrick. I have something to tell you.”

瑪麗:“帕特瑞克，我有些事想告訴你。”

Patrick: “Well，what’s on your mind? You know you can tell me everything.”

帕特瑞克:“好的，你在想什么?有什么事你盡管可以跟我說。”

Mary: “It’ s so terrible.”

瑪麗:“這件事簡直太難講出口了。”

Patrick: “You know you can trust me. What is it?”

帕克瑞克:“請你相信我，到底是什么事?”

Mary: “Well, it was a few years ago. Father lost his job, and no money in sight…”

瑪麗:“那是好幾年前的事了。我爸爸失業(yè)了，當時沒有錢。”

Patrick: “So, what is it?”

帕特瑞克:“那然后呢?”

Mary: “Oh. We were so desperate. For some time I had to turn… prostitute!”

瑪麗:“哦，當時我們簡直是絕望之極。所以有時候我不得不去做妓女!”

Patrick: “WHAT!”

帕特瑞克:“你說什么?”

Mary: “We needed the money so bad!”

瑪麗:“我們太需要錢了。”

Patrick: “There is no good reason for this! Endangering your very soul! How could you? YOU! Mary, this is more than I can stand!”

帕特瑞克:“不要找借口開脫了。出賣你的靈魂，你怎么能這么做呢? 你! 瑪麗，這我實在是接受不了。”

Mary: “Not you, Pat! No! I thought you'd understand. I thought your could still love me, even though I had been a whore.”

瑪麗:“不，帕特請不要這樣，我覺得你能理解我。我相信你依然愛我，哪怕我曾經出賣過自己的身體。”

Patrick:“Oh! … You … Well, that's ok. For a moment I thought you said protestant’!”

帕特瑞克:“哦，你等會兒，那沒關系。剛才我還以為你是說你是當了新教徒呢。”
