美國流行笑話：He leaks 他漏了

173　He leaks 他漏了

Even though we were on a shoestring grad-student budget, my wife insisted we pay off the hospital bill when our son was born. Now we had to figure out how to meet our other financial obligations. We were discussing this one night when the baby began crying for a diaper change. As my wife picked him up, she sighed, “He's the only thing in this house that's paid for, and he leaks.”
盡管我們是靠研究生那一點(diǎn)菲薄的收入生活，我太太在生完兒子以后還是堅(jiān)持要付清醫(yī)院的賬單?，F(xiàn)在我們必須想辦法怎樣來償還其他債務(wù)。這天晚上我們正在討論的時(shí)候，孩子哭了，該換尿片了。我太太把孩子抱起來，嘆了一口氣說：“他是這房子里唯一付了錢的，他還漏了。”
