A mom in New York recently surprised her daughter at college by sneaking¹ into a dorm room and snapping a selfie.

最近纽约的一位母亲希望偷偷溜进大学一间宿舍自拍给自己的女儿惊喜。看起来很好。只是其中发生了一点小问题。

Looks great. There`s just a little problem. The mom says, "Look where I am. Where are you?" The daughter says, "Where`s that? I`m in my dorm."

这位母亲说:“看我在哪里。你在哪里?”女儿说,“在哪儿?我在我的宿舍里啊。”

Then she writes, "Please tell me you`re not in someone else`s dorm?" And the mom promptly² thought, uh-uh.

然后,她回复道,“请告诉我你不是在别人的宿舍吧?”而后这位母亲才立即意识到自己闹出了大乌龙。

We see this happens all the time, but it probably doesn`t. Hey, at least the picture went viral. Will this shut the dorm on future visits? It was a mama`s mistake. Everyone who`s lived on campus would say there`s roomy for improvement. Surprise visits always keep students guesting and atleast mom hasn`t lost her college.

我们看到这样的尴尬情况一直发生,但这次可不会总发生。嘿,至少发布的照片火爆网络。这会导致未来人们来访时会关闭这间宿舍吗?这是一位母亲所犯下的错误。
