A builder and a priest are out for a game of golf one afternoon.
Unfortunately the builder wasn't very good at the game and every time he
missed a shot would shout 'Shit, missed'.
The game went
on and after several outbursts from the builder, the priest could hold his
tongue no longer. "Don't swear like that" he told his friend, "or God will
punish you". The builder apologised and the game continued.
As soon as he
missed another shot the builder shouted "Shit, missed." and continued to do
this every time he missed a shot for the next three holes. The priest was
starting to get really angry by now and said "I must insist that you stop
swearing this instant, otherwise God will hear you and punish you!"
Once again,
his pleas made no difference as the builder missed an easy putt on the
seventeenth green and shouted out "Shit, missed". Immediately the heavens
parted and a bolt of lightning flew from the sky, hitting the priest and
killing him stone dead.
Suddenly, a booming voice was
heard in the clouds, "Shit, missed!" |
