"Confessional Code Word" joke
There was an old priest who had grown sick and tired of all the people in his parish who kept confessing to adultery. One Sunday, in the pulpit, he said, "If I hear one more person confess to adultery, I'll quit!"
The parishioners liked the old priest so much, they came up with a code word. When someone had committed adultery, they would instead say that they had 'fallen'.
This seemed to satisfy the old priest and things went well, until he passed away at a ripe, old age. Several days after the new priest arrived, he visited the town's mayor and seemed very concerned.
"Mayor," the priest said, "something must be done about the sidewalks in town. When people come into the confessional, they keep telling me that they have fallen."
The mayor began to laugh, realizing that no one had thought to tell the new priest about the code word.
Before the mayor had a chance to explain, the priest shook an accusing finger at him and said, "I don't know what you're laughing about. Your wife has fallen twice so far this week!"
