A commuter¹ sitting on a subway train reading a paper back was so sprawled² out in the seat that the woman next to him had very little room. When she asked if he could move a bit, he refused.

 

Just then, a man opposite them yelled, "Why don't you sit like a human being!"

 

"What are you going to do if I don't?" came the reply.

 

"Well, for one thing, I'll tell you how that book ends."

 

一位跑地铁通勤的家伙四肢伸展地坐在座位上看着一本平装小说。他旁边的女士被挤的实在难忍，便要求稍微挪动一下，却遭到了他的拒绝。

 

这时，坐在对面的一位先生喊道：“你为什么不能像人一样坐着呢？”

 

“我就是不愿意，看你能把我怎么样？”

 

那个人回答说：“那好，只有一个办法了，我会告诉你这本书是怎样结的尾。”
