Today's giggle
Sister Mary entered the Monastery of Silence.
The priest said, “Sister, this is a silent monastery.
You are welcome here for as long as you like,
but you may not speak until directed to do so.”
...
Sister Mary lived in the monastery for five years before the priest said
to her, “Sister Mary, you have been here for five years. You may speak
two words.”
Sister Mary said, “Hard bed.”
“I’m sorry to hear that,” the priest said. “We will get you a better bed.”
After another five years, Sister Mary was summoned by the priest.
“You may speak another two words, Sister Mary.”
“Cold food,” said Sister Mary, and the priest assured her that the
food would be better in the future.
On her fifteenth anniversary at the monastery, the priest again called
Sister Mary into his office. “You may speak two words today.”
“I quit,” said Sister Mary.
“It’s probably best,” said the priest.
“You’ve done nothing but complain since you got here.”
