Murphy was going into the pub when he was stopped by a nun standing outside. "Don't go in there," she said to him, "drink will be the ruin of you. It's a terrible thing."
Murphy was having none of this and said to the nun, "Drink is great, sister! Have you ever tried it?"
"Well, no," said the nun.
"I tell you what, sister," said Murphy. "I'll get you a drink and after you've tried it, you tell me if you still think it's terrible."
"Well, all right," said the nun, "but please get it in a china cup. I don't want people to be scandalised by seeing me drinking in the street."
So Murphy goes into the pub and says to the bartender, "Give me a double whiskey, but put it in a china cup, please."
"****" says the bartender. "Don't tell me that nun's outside again!"
