愚人笑話：4、 Microwave 微波爐

4. Microwave

A blonde went to the appliance store sale and found a bargain2. "I would like to buy this TV." she told the salesman.

Sorry, we don't sell to blondes. he replied.

She hurried home and dyed3 her hair, then came back and again told the salesman. "I would like to buy this TV." "Sorry, we don't sell to blondes," he replied.

Damn4, he recognized me. she thought.

And the TV set was really a good deal. So she went for a complete disguise5 this time, haircut and new color, new outfit6, big sunglasses, then waited a few days before she again approached7 the salesman. "I would like to buy this TV." "Sorry, we don't sell to blondes," he replied.

Frustrated8, she exclaimed, "How do you know I'm a blonde?"

Because, he replied, "that's a microwave."

世界第一臺微波爐由美國人珀西·斯本塞于1945年發(fā)明。1947年，雷聲公司推出了第一臺商用微波爐，供飯店和團(tuán)體使用。但這種微波爐的成本太高，壽命短，推出后未能被市場接受。1967年，一種售價低廉的家用微波爐開始推向市場。上世紀(jì)80年代起微波爐開始進(jìn)入中國家庭。
