You Can Smell This One Coming
Father Brown was walking on the grounds of the convent when he noticed Sister Jane walking by. He thought, “Sister Jane seems to be heavier now.” So he called out to her, “Sister Jane, aren’t we gaining some weight?”
“Oh, no, Father,” said Sister Jane. “Just a little gas. That’s all.”
Two months later, Father Brown again noticed that Sister Jane seemed to be much larger than the last time he saw her. So he approached her and remarked, “Sister Jane, you seemed to be putting on much weight lately.”
“Oh, Father Brown,” said Sister Jane. “It’s a little gas. I tell you.”
A year had gone by before Father Brown saw Sister Jane again. This time she was pushing a baby carriage around the convent grounds. Father Brown went up to her, leaned over the carriage and remarked dryly, “Hmmm. Cute little fart.”
