Lack of window screens. Last time I was in Italy, I accidentally left my hotel room window open. That night I spent an hour killing mosquitoes in the room and still got 20+ bites.
沒有紗窗。我上次去意大利的時(shí)候，不小心忘了關(guān)酒店房間的窗戶了。那天晚上我花了一個(gè)小時(shí)殺蚊子，最后還是被咬了20多個(gè)包。
Yeah I still haven't figured that one out in places that keep windows open near year round. Stop the bugs!
沒錯(cuò)，我仍然沒弄明白他們這種一年到頭都開窗戶的地方為什么不裝紗窗。阻止一下蟲子??！
This was in the US but….one time I was walking down the street on the north side of Chicago, it was late spring and someone had their second story window open without a screen. I watched a Pigeon land on the windowsill, poke it’s head in the window, and then fly inside. I said to myself “that person is gonna have a rough time”
雖然這件事發(fā)生在美國(guó)……有一天我在芝加哥北區(qū)的街道上走著，當(dāng)時(shí)已經(jīng)是晚春了，有人開著二樓的窗戶，沒裝紗窗。我看到一只鴿子落在了窗臺(tái)上，把頭探進(jìn)去看了看，然后就飛進(jìn)去了。我自言自語(yǔ)道，“這兄弟要遭殃了?！?/b>
Absurd is right. It's truly inexplicable. Especially in so much of Europe where there isn't air conditioning. If you're going to have windows open, then why not have a screen? And it's an easy aftermarket fix too, so there's really just no reason for them not to be there.
確實(shí)太蠢了。根本就無(wú)法解釋。尤其是歐洲有那么多地方?jīng)]有空調(diào)。如果你想要開窗，那為什么不裝個(gè)紗窗？而且買完裝起來(lái)也很方便，所以根本沒有理由不裝這個(gè)東西。

Here in America if you mention a house was made in the 1800s you get an astonished look.

hahaha that reminds me of the tumblr post that says “if you say ‘someone died in this house’ in America that means a man was stabbed to death but if you say it in Europe it means that 3 generations have lived and died peacefully.”
哈哈這讓我想起有人在tumblr上發(fā)了個(gè)帖子說(shuō)“如果你在美國(guó)說(shuō)‘這棟房子里死過(guò)人’，那意味著有人在那棟房子里被捅死過(guò)，但是如果你在歐洲說(shuō)這句話，那意味著曾經(jīng)有三代人在這棟房子里安詳?shù)厣喜∷馈！?/b>
It doesn't exactly help that earlier colonists buried their dead in the basements during the winter in the northeast US, so there's a very real chance of unearthing bodies in old homes. I can't say if this happens in Europe, but any old home in the northeast US with an unfinished basement generally means don't do any renovating unless you want to have to call the cops and figure out what century the bones you just accidentally dug up are from.
在美國(guó)的東北部，早期的殖民者會(huì)在冬天把自己家的死者埋葬在地下室里，所以在老房子里很有可能挖出尸體來(lái)。我不好說(shuō)這種事情會(huì)在歐洲發(fā)生，但是美國(guó)東北部的任何一棟老房子如果有沒造完的地下室的話，基本上就意味著不要對(duì)它動(dòng)任何的手腳，除非你想報(bào)警，搞明白你不小心挖出來(lái)的那些骨頭到底是哪個(gè)世紀(jì)的。
那些人應(yīng)該都是安詳去世的，但他們也在那待得稍微久了一點(diǎn)。
I live in Salem, MA now and we had this happen on my street last summer. It was a nightmare. I have a degree in archeology and my neighbor knocked on my door like "Hi! We found a body, the police are coming but it's really old, could you-"
我住在馬薩諸塞州的塞勒姆，去年夏天我們就發(fā)生過(guò)這種事。簡(jiǎn)直是一場(chǎng)噩夢(mèng)。我有考古學(xué)的學(xué)位，所以我家鄰居敲響我的房門之后說(shuō)，“嗨！我們找到了具尸體，警察在往這兒趕了，但那副尸體真的特別古老，你能不能——”
不。不，女士，我不能。
When I was a kid in Sharon MA in the 60s there were woods across the street from my house that we used to play in. Under the branches, leaves etc we found a bunch of grave markers of people who died in the late 1600s. I was always pretty sure they were people who were killed in King Philips War. In the 80s I was back there ( I live in CA now)with my fiance (now my wife) and they had built a whole bunch of houses in the woods right where those graves were. I saw some guy working in his yard and asked him about the graves. He gave me a strange look and said what graves? I said never mind and split. Haven't been back since.
我60年代還是個(gè)孩子的時(shí)候，住在馬薩諸塞州的沙龍，在我們經(jīng)常一起玩的我家房子街對(duì)面，有一片森林。在一堆枯枝落葉的下面，我們找到了不少墳?zāi)?，主人死?7世紀(jì)晚期。我一直都很確定他們就是死于菲利普國(guó)王戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)的人。在上世紀(jì)80年代我?guī)е椿槠蓿ìF(xiàn)在是我老婆）回去（我現(xiàn)在住在加州），發(fā)現(xiàn)他們?cè)谠瓉?lái)那片墳?zāi)股厦嬗衷炝艘黄孔?。我看到有人在草坪上干活，于是我就過(guò)去問他墳?zāi)沟氖?。他奇怪地看了我一眼，問我什么墳?zāi)?？我說(shuō)別管了，就走了。此后我再也沒回去過(guò)。
Not necessarily in New England, but you won't find anything older than the late 1600s, at least (mostly cemeteries for that old. There's quite a few still intact in New England tho)
倒不一定是在新英格蘭，不過(guò)你在美國(guó)絕對(duì)找不到任何早于17世紀(jì)晚期的東西（絕大多數(shù)都是墳?zāi)沽?。在新英格蘭倒是還有不少仍舊保存完好的。）
我們?cè)谖髂喜看_實(shí)有幾千年歷史的印第安原住民居住地。所以也分地區(qū)。
Regarding cemeteries, here in Sweden, it is common to reuse grave plots, a grave plot is normally rented for about 70 years, after that, the gravestone is removed and the plot is prepared for the next person.
說(shuō)到墳?zāi)?，在瑞典這邊，墳坑重新使用還是很常見的。一個(gè)坑通常是出租70年，在此之后，墓碑就會(huì)被移走，坑留給下一個(gè)人。
也說(shuō)得通，雖然有點(diǎn)讓人發(fā)毛，因?yàn)樵诒宦裨岬哪莻€(gè)人的親友自己也去世之后，就會(huì)有越來(lái)越少的人過(guò)去探訪，因此隨著時(shí)間過(guò)去，骨灰盒（用可降解的材料制作）和里面的東西也會(huì)消失，所以也就沒什么好挖的，把墓碑拿走就行，坑就可以給下一個(gè)安息的人準(zhǔn)備好了。
這意味著墓地的規(guī)模不會(huì)不斷變大，但是那個(gè)人在世的親屬也或許永遠(yuǎn)都見不到死者的墓地被清理的那天。
Used to work at a pub that was built in the 12 or 1300s. Used to enjoy thinking how no matter how much the world outside the walls changed, people inside are laughing, arguing, joking, making friends and meeting lovers just as they would have the previous centuries.

但是我不太喜歡自己一個(gè)人呆著，太多詭異的事情了?，F(xiàn)在講起來(lái)某些事情甚至都會(huì)讓我覺得有點(diǎn)想吐或者胳膊上起雞皮疙瘩。我不知道自己信不信鬼，但是在發(fā)生過(guò)這些事情之后我肯定得信點(diǎn)兒什么東西了哈哈！

One of our pipes weren't working properly (air bubbles) so I turned that specific beer off until close so I could sort it out. The guy I was working with went home a few minutes early because we'd finished cleaning/bottling up. I went to the cellar to sort the pipe out so it can be used the next day. I thought I heard chairs scraping upstairs and figured my colleague was still kicking about or something.

Public nudity. I remember the first time I experienced it in Germany. I was with my sisters at a local public swimming pool.

My friend had two American 20 year old girls staying with her during the summer in her apartment in Barcelona. She has a couple of fans but no AC.
