The further and continuing adventures of the girl who sat in the back of your homeroom, reading and daydreaming.

Punday?
With no disrespect meant-- Say you're a female who is in a religious order, and you spend all day, every day pondering the nature of the Deity. Can you, in good conscience, list your profession on a 1040 tax form as "Nun of the Above?"
If god was gonna get you for nun jokes, I'd be hit by lightning about thirty times a day.
As someone who spent twelve years in the company of nuns, I can assure you that every joke that can be made, has been made; some of the worst ones by the nuns themselves.

"I saw to what extent the people among whom I lived could be trusted as good neighbors and friends; that their friendship was for summer weather only; that they did not greatly propose to do right; that they were a distinct race from me by their prejudices and superstitions."

That's like a pastry chef claiming to be holy . . . on the grounds of his pie-ty!

God is gonna getcha. You watch He doesn't do something like drop a tree on your house.

The worst nun joke I know:
Mother Superior gathered the nuns together and made a solemn announcement, "We have a case of chlamydia in the convent."
An old nun in the back said, "Oh, thenk God! I am so tired of chardonnay."
The real question: Is it okay to date a nun?
Answer: Yes, as long as you don't get into the habit.

Wouldn't that be Sister Mary Celestron?
Good one!
