Do not be drinking anything unless you want it coming out your nose.
This one is a real hoot (or atl least made coffee come out my nose)
Some friars were behind on their belfry payments, so they opened up
a small florist shop to raise the funds. Since everyone liked to buy
flowers from the men of God, the rival florist across town thought the
competition was unfair. He asked the good fathers to close down, but
they would not. He went back and begged the friars to close.
They ignored him. He asked his mother to go and ask the friars to get
out of business. They ignored her too. So, the rival florist hired Hugh
MacTaggart, the roughest and most vicious thug in town to “persuade”
them to close. Hugh beat up the friars and trashed their store, saying
he’d be back if they didn’t close shop.
Terrified, the friars did so – thereby proving that…
…Hugh, and only Hugh, can prevent florist friars.
