一个司机开着一辆卡车，后面拖车上是一车厢的电脑。他停了车想喝杯啤酒，走到酒吧门口他看到门上有个大标语：“网虫禁入——否则后果自负”。他走进酒吧坐了下来。 酒吧招待来到他身边，闻了闻，说他身上有网虫的味道，问他是做什么的。司机说他是开卡车的，身上的气味来自他运的电脑。招待说没问题，卡车司机不是网虫,然后给他拿来了啤酒。 司机正在品着啤酒，一个瘦瘦的家伙走了进来。他眼镜上缠着带子，口袋里装着12种不同的钢笔和铅笔，腰带至少有一英尺长。酒吧招待二话没说，拿出枪把这个家伙赶跑了。 司机问他为什么要这样做,酒吧招待说不用担心，硅谷里的网虫太多了，现在是捕杀的季节，你甚至都不用执照。 司机喝完酒之后，回到卡车上，向高速路的方向开去。为了躲过一场事故,他突然转向，车上的货物倒了。车的后门一下子开了，电脑都滚落在路上。司机从车上跳下来，看见已经聚集了一大群人,都在抢电脑。这些人全是工程师、会计和程序设计员，穿着从没见过的最怪的网虫服。司机不能让他们把货物全都偷走。想起了酒吧里的一幕，他就拿出枪来向这些人扫射，马上就有几个倒在了地上。 一个高速公路巡查员开着车飞驰而至，他从车上跳下来，大声喝令司机住手。卡车司机问道:“有什么不对吗？我以为现在正是网虫泛滥的季节。” "没错，"巡警说，“但是那也不能诱捕他们。” Nerds A truck driver hauling a tractor-trailer load of computers stops for a beer. As he approaches the bar he sees a big sign on the door saying “NERDS NOT ALLOWED 一 ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK”. He goes in and sits down. The bartender comes over to him, sniffs, says he smells kind of nerdy, and asks him what he does for a living. The truck driver says he drives a truck, and the smell is just from the computers he is hauling. The bartender says OK, truck drivers are not nerds, and serves him a beer. As he is sipping his beer, a skinny guy walks in with tape around his glasses, a pocket with twelve kinds of pens and pencils stashed, and a belt at least a foot long. The bartender, without saying a word, pulls out a shotgun and blows the guy away. The truck driver asks him why he did that. The bartender says don't worry, the nerds are overpopulating Silicon Valley, and are in season now. You don’t even need a license to kill them, he says. The truck driver finishes his beer, gets back in his truck, and heads back onto the freeway. Suddenly he veers to avoid an accident, and the load shifts. The back door breaks down and opens and computers spill out all over the freeway. He jumps out and sees a crowd already forming, grabbing up the computers. They are all engineers, accountants and programmers wearing the nerdiest clothes he has ever seen. He can't let them steal his whole load. So remembering what happened in the bar, he pulls out his gun and starts blasting away, felling several of them instantly. A highway patrol officer comes zooming up and jumps out of the car screaming at him to stop. The truck driver says, “What’s wrong? I thought nerds were in season. ” “Well, sure，，’ says the patrolman, “but you can’t bait them. ” |
