A Reddit user named Aerrix says the world's richest man -- worth a cool $75 billion, in case you've forgotten -- sent her gifts last week through Reddit's Secret Santa Gift exchange.
一位Reddit用戶Aerrix說世界首富——可別忘了,就是身價高達(dá)750億美元那位——上周通過Reddit上的“秘密圣誕老人禮物”交換通道送給了她一些禮物。
The gifts were awesome, and she was a little bit excited about it. We know this because about half of the words in a post she wrote about it were in all caps.
這些禮物非常棒,她有些小興奮。我們知道這點,是因為貼子里有一半字她都寫的大寫字母。
Aerrix wrote of getting a mysterious box -- a "freakin' HUGE BOX," she called it -- of opening it and seeing a picture of Gates in a Santa hat on top, of calling her husband and blurting out the news -- "BILL GATES IS MY FREAKIN SANTA!!!!!!!" -- and of course, going through and unwrapping these gifts of pure joy.
Aerrix寫道,她收到一個神秘的箱子——她稱其為一個“非常奇怪的”大箱子,打開箱子,最上面放著一張蓋茨戴圣誕帽的照片,然后她就給丈夫打電話,嚷嚷著“比爾·蓋茨竟然是我的圣誕老人?。。。。。?!”。當(dāng)然,后面就是滿心歡喜地大拆包裝了。
She loved them, because Gates, the Microsoft founder and philanthropist, did his homework. You see, Aerrix loves stuff like video games and the Legend of Zelda. It says so on her Reddit Gifts profile page, which Gates obviously read, because he loaded her up with all kinds of goodies like: the matching Zelda mittens for her and her dog ...
她很愛這些禮物,因為蓋茨——也就是微軟的創(chuàng)始人和慈善家——已經(jīng)做足了功課。你看,Aerrix喜歡電子游戲和《塞爾達(dá)傳說》之類的東西,她的Reddit禮物檔案頁上就是這么寫的,蓋茨顯然讀過了,因為他送了她一大堆這類東西:為Aerrix和她的狗狗準(zhǔn)備的成套的塞爾達(dá)手套……
and the Minecraft edition Xbox One (with three wireless controllers) ...
一臺Minecraft版本的Xbox One(帶3個無線手柄)……
and the Harry Potter slippers ...
哈里?波特拖鞋……
and the Cajun cookbooks (because she's from southern Louisiana and hasn't forgotten her roots) ...
卡真食譜(因為她來自路易斯安那州南部,還沒有忘記自己的家鄉(xiāng))……
and a Legend of Zelda master sword (it's made out of paper) ...
《塞爾達(dá)傳說》里的大師劍(由紙做成的)……
But Gates wasn't done, she wrote. He also made a donation in her name to , which helps students learn about computer science. "Which is AWESOME because it's something near and dear to my heart as my husband is a programmer and my brother has a degree in computer science!" she wrote.
她寫道,蓋茨還沒完,他還以她的名義向網(wǎng)站捐了一筆款,這是一個幫學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)計算機(jī)科學(xué)的網(wǎng)站。她寫道:“實在是太贊了,這事兒做得太窩心了,因為我丈夫就是程序員,我弟弟也有計算機(jī)科學(xué)學(xué)位!”
This Secret Santa stuff is nothing new for Gates though. He's has been doing this since at least 2013.
但是“秘密圣誕老人”這類事兒對蓋茨來說可不新鮮,他至少從2013年開始就在做了。
