一句關於新英鎊硬幣的笑話當選2017愛丁堡藝穗節最佳冷笑話,作者是一位名叫Ken Cheng的華裔喜劇演員。
Ken Cheng的這句話在愛丁堡藝穗節(Edinburgh Festival Fringe,也稱「愛丁堡邊緣藝術節」)第十屆"大衛最有趣玩笑獎"評出的15個笑話中名列第一。
這句話是,"I'm not a fan of the new pound coin, but then again, I hate all change"。
英國最近發行了新的一元英鎊硬幣,和老版硬幣最大的不同是,新硬幣用十二角形替代了過去的圓形。
這句英文笑話的意思直譯是,"我並不喜歡新的一鎊硬幣,說實話,我討厭所有變化。"
Change 一詞在英語中還有"零錢"的意思。所以這句話也可一語雙關地翻譯為,"我不喜歡新的一鎊硬幣,說實話,我討厭所有零錢。"
該獎項由公眾投票決定,Ken Cheng的這句話獲得了33%的選票。本次投票的公眾總數為2000人,為了避免名人效應,候選笑話的作者事前並不公布。
獲得大衛獎後,Ken Cheng表示,"我感到非常驕傲。作為感謝,我將為我的第一個兒子取名'邊緣的玩笑'(Joke of the Fringe)。"
公開資料顯示,Ken Cheng是一名出生在英國的華裔喜劇演員,曾獲得2015年BBC廣播喜劇獎項。他的一些類似於中國單口相聲的視頻在Youtube上流行,很多表演內容都和英語中的多義詞相關。
Ken Cheng的個人推特介紹自己是"一名專業的撲克手,以及喜劇演員"。
英國《衛報》報道稱,Ken Cheng 曾經在著名的劍橋大學學習數學,但後來退學成為一名網絡撲克手。2015年,他曾入圍BBC廣播新喜劇決賽。
