Friday Funny: ๐๐๐ปA Nun in hospital๐๐ป๐
A man suffered a heart attack while shopping in a store.
The store manager called for an ambulance when they saw him collapse to the floor.
The paramedics rushed the man to the nearest hospital, where he had emergency open-heart bypass surgery.
He awakened from the surgery to find himself in the care of nuns at the Catholic Hospital.
A nun was seated next to his bed holding a clipboard, a pen, and a collection of forms. She asked him how he was going to pay for his treatment.
She asked, "Do you have health insurance?"
He replied in a weak raspy voice, "No health insurance."
The nun asked, "Do you have money in the bank?"
He replied, "No money in the bank."
The irritated nun continued, โDo you have a relative who could help you with the payments?"
He replied, "I have only a spinster sister and she is a nun."
The nun became agitated and announced, "Nuns are not spinsters! Nuns are married to God!"
The patient replied, โPerfect. Send the bill to my brother-in-law.โ
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldnโt be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
