Absolutely Nothing This Month

John sees a friend at a table in a bar, drinking by himself.
　
Approaching the friend he comments, "You look terrible. What's the problem?"
　　
"My mother died in August," he said, "and left me $25,000."
　
"Gee, that's tough," John replied.

"Then in September," the friend continued, "My father died, leaving me $90,000."

"Wow. Two parents gone in two months. No wonder you're depressed."
　
"And last month my aunt died, and left me $15,000."
　　
"Three close family members lost in three months? How sad."
　
"Then this month," continued, the friend, "absolutely nothing!"
　　

這個(gè)月什么都沒有

在一個(gè)酒吧里，約翰看到他的一個(gè)朋友坐在吧臺(tái)邊獨(dú)自喝酒。

他走到朋友身邊，問道：“你看上去狀態(tài)不太好，怎么了？出什么事了嗎？”

“我媽媽8月份去世了?！迸笥汛鸬?，“留給我2.5萬美元?！?/P>

“??？是嗎？這真是太糟了?！奔s翰說道。

“然后，9月份，”朋友繼續(xù)說，“我爸爸也去世了，留給我9萬美元。”

“哎呀，兩個(gè)月之內(nèi)你失去了兩個(gè)親人，你一定很傷心難過吧？”

“然后，上個(gè)月，我的姨媽也去世了，留給我1.5萬美元。”

“3個(gè)月之內(nèi)你失去了3個(gè)親友？多讓人傷心??！”

“然而，這個(gè)月，”朋友繼續(xù)答道，“什么都沒有！”
