Sisters of Mercy
A man is driving down a deserted stretch of highway. On the roadside, he notices a sign from the corner of his eye which reads, "Sisters Of Mercy House Of Prostitution 10 Miles Ahead." Thinking it is just a figment of his imagination, the man drives on without a second thought. A little later, though, the man sees another sign which reads, "Sisters Of Mercy House Of Prostitution 5 Miles Ahead." When the man drives past a third sign saying, "Sisters Of Mercy House Of Prostitution Next Right," his curiosity gets the best of him. The man pulls into the drive.
On the far side of the parking lot is a sombre, stone building with a small sign next to the door reading, "Welcome To Sisters Of Mercy House Of Prostitution." The man climbs the steps to the building and rings the bell. The door is answered by a nun in a long, black habit. "What may we do for you, my son?" asks the nun.
The man answers, "I saw your signs along the highway... I was interested in perhaps doing business."
"Very well, my son. Please follow me."
The man is led through many winding passages and is soon quite disoriented. The nun stops at a closed door and tells the man, "Please knock on this door".
The man does as he is told and the door is answered by another nun in a long, black habit, holding a tin cup. The nun instructs, "Please place $50 in the cup, then go through the large wooden door at the end of this hallway."
The man gets $50 from his wallet and places it in the nun's cup. Then, he trots eagerly down the hall and slips through the door. He hears the sound of the door lock as he closes it behind him. Suddenly, he finds himself back in the parking lot, where he began, facing another small sign:
"Go In Peace, You Have Just Been Fucked By The Sisters Of Mercy."
