A boy is about to go on his first date, and is nervous about what to talk about. He asks his father for advice.The father replies:“My son, there are three subjects that always work. These are food, family, and philosophy.”
The boy picks up his date and they go to a soda fountain . Icecream sodas in front of them, they stare at each other for a long time, as the boy's nervousness builds . He remembers his father's advice, and chooses the first topic. He asks the girl: "Do you like potato pancakes ?”She says “No,” and the silence returns.
After a few more uncomfortable minutes, the boy thinks of his father's suggestion and turns to the second item on the list. He asks, “Do you have a brother?”Again, the girl says “No,”and there is silence once again.
The boy then plays his last card . He thinks of his father's advice and asks the girl the following question:"If you had a brother,would he like potato pancakes?"
男 孩
一个男孩要去赴他的第一次约会，他很紧张，不知道到时候该说什么。他向父亲征求意见。父亲回答：“我的孩子，通常有三个话题可谈，那就是吃的，家庭和哲学。”
男孩于是去接了女友，他们去了一家冷饮店。他们面前放了冰激凌汽水，然后两个人面面相觑了好长时间，男孩的紧张情绪更加重了。他想起父亲的建议，选择了第一个话题。
他问那个女孩：“你喜欢烤土豆薄饼吗？”她说：“不。”他们又陷入了沉默。
又过了尴尬的几分钟，男孩想到父亲的建议，转向第二个话题。他问：你有兄弟吗？”那女孩又说：“没有。”然后又是沉默。
这个男孩只好亮出最后一着。他想着父亲的建议，问了女孩这个问题：“要是你有个兄弟的话，他会喜欢烤土豆薄饼吗？
