时间：2019-01-19 作者：英语课 分类：地道美语播客
My friend and I were at a restaurant waiting for our dates to arrive. We sat at the bar and tried to get the bartender's attention to order a couple of drinks.
My friend, Tanya, is very pretty. She is always being hit on by men. So, it was no surprise that five minutes after we sat down, a guy got up from the other side of the bar and walked over to us. He sat down next to Tanya.
He looked at both of us and said, "Hi, I saw you two beautiful ladies sitting by yourselves over here. Could I buy you two a drink?‚"
Tanya looked at me and rolled her eyes and said, "No, thanks. We're waiting for our boyfriends.‚"
We both thought that he would take the hint 1 and get lost, but he didn't.
Instead, he looked at Tanya and said, "Do you come here often? "
Tanya tried to ignore him, but he wouldn't give up.
He said, "You look like an angel 2. Does heaven know you've escaped?‚"
That pickup 3 line was so lame 4 that we almost burst 5 out laughing. Luckily, we didn't need to keep a straight face for long. Our dates walked in and the guy left. Charlie, my date, apologized for keeping us waiting. I told him that it was no big deal. We had plenty of entertainment.
