around and finally stops to watch a fisherman load his boat. The
fisherman notices, and asks the priest if he would like to join him for a couple
of hours. The priest agrees. The fisherman asks if the priest has ever
fished before, to which the priest says no. He baits the hook for him and
says, "Give it a shot father".
After a few minutes, the priest hooks a huge fish and struggles to get
it in the boat.The fisherman says "Whoa, look at the size of that
sonofabitch!"
Priest: "Uh, please sir, can you mind your language?"
Fisherman:(THINKING QUICKLY) "Ermm, I am sorry father, but that's what
this fish is called - a sonofabitch!"
Priest: "Oh, I'm sorry - I didn't know."
After the trip, the priest brings the fish to the church and spots the
bishop.
Priest: "Look at this big sonofabitch!"
Bishop: "Please, mind your language, this is a house of God."
Priest: "No, you don't understand - that's what this fish is called,
and I caught it. I caught this sonofabitch!"
Bishop: "Hmmm. You know, I could clean this sonofabitch and we could
have it for dinner."
So the Bishop takes the fish and cleans it, and brings it to the
headmother.
Bishop: "Could you cook this sonofabitch for dinner tonight?"
Head Mother: "My lord, what language!"
Bishop: "No, sister, that's what the fish is called - a sonofabitch!
Father caught it, I cleaned it, and we'd like you to cook it.
Head Mother: "Hmmm. Yes, I'll cook that sonofabitch tonight."
By chance, the Pope stops by for dinner with the three of them, and
they all think the fish is great. He asks where they got it.
Priest: "I caught the sonofabitch!"
Bishop: "And I cleaned the sonofabitch!"
Head Mother: "And I cooked the sonofabitch!"
The Pope stares at them for a minute with a steely gaze. He then takes
off his hat, puts his feet up on the table, and says, "Y'know, you fuckers
are alright."
