	nona the brit  +  370873 Sat, 26 May 07 05:19 PM It's one joke, and not a very nice one. A spit is a device for cooking meat on a fire. Nuns wear black and white clothes. Can you work it out now? nona the brit Joined on Wed, Sep 22 2004 England Veteran Member 11,713 The name says it all. Jokes

	nona the brit  +  371153 Sun, 27 May 07 12:54 PM It's an unpleasant joke. I'd rather not. Replace each comma with the word 'then' to work it out. nona the brit Jokes, Commas

	Osee  +  371315 Sun, 27 May 07 10:19 PM I understand the first sentence means the nun's clothes is getting burned. The second means the nun is cooking meat on a fire. Anyway, I do not get it. Nona, you said this is an unpleasant joke, if you would not like to explain it here, would it be possible to tell me by email? Thanks a lot!  Nona The Brit wrote: It's an unpleasant joke.

	Grammar Geek  +  371458 Mon, 28 May 07 06:24 AM Osee, it means a PERSON is being cooked. Don't you think that's unpleasant?

	nona the brit  +  371496 Mon, 28 May 07 09:29 AM Osee, the nun isn't cooking meat, she is herself being cooked on the fire. nona the brit

	Matress  +  373254 Thu, 31 May 07 09:15 PM I think it has double meaning, like a num with a monk,you know,  it isn't correct them both go to hell, or both burn in fire them both became black. Gotcha??? There is something funny in that, isn't it?

	Grammar Geek  +  373312 Thu, 31 May 07 11:38 PM No, there's really no double meaning. It's just a rather nasty joke about someone being cooked on a spit. I would advise against telling it to anyone over the age of 13, if you feel you must tell it at all.  I find NOTHING funny in it. Grammar Geek Jokes
