Three Nuns
Three nuns were attending a rugby final..
Three men were sitting directly behind..
Because their habits were partially blocking the view, the men decided to badger the nuns hoping that they'd get annoyed enough to move to another area..
In a very loud voice, the first guy said, "i think i'm going to move to sydney ... There are only 100 nuns living there.."
then the second guy spoke up and said, "i want to go to tasmania ... There are only 50 nuns living there.."
the third guy said, "i want to go to new zealand ... There are only 25 nuns living there..."
one of the nuns turned around, looked at the men, and in a very sweet and calm voice said,
"why don't you go to hell .. There aren't any nuns there!
