Reply #35: Joseph the absentee father... [View All]

2 years after the birth of jesus...

Things in the Christ household aren't all beer and skittles...

Joseph: I'm going out...

Mary: what? That's the third time this week?

Joseph: well, did you ever think that I'm a little under appreciated around here? It's jesus this and jesus that...

Mary: Joe, he's a 2 year old, he needs a lot of attention.

Joseph: you know perfectly well, that's not what I'm talking about.

Mary rolls her eyes.

Mary: not this again?

Joseph: damn straight, if you hadn't talked me out of telling your parents about that wild night in down at the shore that summer 2 years and nine months ago, none of this would have been an issue!

Mary: are you kidding???? and get stoned to death?

Joseph: I told you I would marry you then...

Mary: yeah right, "mr. I have to go dwarf bowling with my buddies"...

Joseph: you always have to bring that up, don't you?

Mary: it's true.

Joseph: True? what do you know about the truth? Immaculate conception? Bahahaha! that's rich! Prior to meeting me, there was nothing immaculate about you!

Mary: what the hell do you mean by that?

Joseph: they didn't call you the "ceiling rafter counter" for nothing!

Mary: Get out! Get out! I never want to see you again!

Joseph: That's fine by me, you never let me be the father to begin with so what's the difference???

Joseph storms out and slams the cloth door.

Mary sits alone weeping.

She picks up, the crying jesus.

Mary: (to jesus) you so better be worth it.

(you my now flame me for my atheist ways, remember it's all in good fun.)
