A bar owner locked up the door of his bar at 2 a. m. and went home to sleep. He had been in bed only a few minutes when the phone rang. “What time do you open up in the morning?” he heard an obviously¹ drunken man ask.

The owner was so angry that he slammed² down（砰地放下）the receiver and went back to bed.
