Occasionally the subject of 'What's really funny?' comes up on these
Christian newsgroups. I - even I! - have been accused by the thought
police occasionally of posting something quite unsuitable ('risque',
'bawdy' etc.) for the pure saintly (and maybe ***less) people who read
stuff here.
I have responded that the Bible is pretty bawdy/earthy in some places,
(you won't find me writing like the Song of Solomon about my love-life)
but the said thought police are only interested in vilification, rather
than hearing what the Bible is about!!! Can you believe that?
I've also challenged such folks to search the 4,000 plus humorous
(someone will now tell me to spell words correctly - ie. the English
way) articles on our website for unsuitable stuff. (A few have been
removed if I can get others whom I trust to agree)...
Anyway... I came across this the other day on uk.rec.humour. My Catholic
friends think it's funny, so it has to be OK, eh? (Warning: if you
believe anything about *** is not funny, don't read any further).
****
A nun, badly needing to use the ladies' room, walked into a local
Working Man's Club.
The place was hopping with music and loud conversation and every
once in a while the lights would turn off.
Each time the lights would go out, the place would erupt into
cheers.
However, when the revelers saw the nun, the room went dead silent.
She walked up to the barman, and asked, "May I please use the
ladies room?"
The barman replied, "OK sister, but I should warn you that there
is a statue of a ****d man in there wearing only a fig leaf."
"Well, in that case, I'll just look the other way," said the nun.
So the barman showed the nun to the back of the restaurant.
After a few minutes, she came back out, and the whole place
stopped just long enough to give the nun a loud round of applause!
She went to the barman and said, "Sir, I don't understand. Why
did they applaud me just because I went to the ladies' room?"
"Well, now they know you're one of us," said the barman, "Would
you like a drink? It's on the house."
"No, thank you, but, I still don't understand," said the puzzled
nun.
"Well, sister," laughed the barman, "Every time someone lifts the
fig leaf on that statue, the lights go out."
"Now, what about that drink?"
