Mildred, the church gossip, and self-appointed monitor of the church's morals, kept sticking her nose into other people's business. Several members did not approve of her extra-curricular activities, but feared her enough to maintain their silence.
She made a mistake, however, when she accused George, a new member, of being an alcoholic after she saw his old pickup parked in front of the town's only bar one afternoon.

She emphatically told George and several others that everyone seeing it there would know what he was doing. George, a man of few words, stared at her for a moment and just turned and walked away. He didn't explain, defend, or deny. He said nothing.

Later that evening, George quietly parked his pickup in front of Mildred's house............. and left it there all night.

So? Where does the funny bit come in. Oh wait, I forgot, it's one of YOUR jokes, which means it's NOT funny.

its quite funny... actually... by leaving his car all night it meant he was doing mildred the church gossip and now everyone will gossip about her and the tables turned and it gets funny. HE MADE IT LOOK LIKE HE WAS BANGING THE CHURCH GOSSIP THAT NO ONE LIKED AND SO NOW EVERYONE WILL TALK ABOUT IT (thats to make it clear for BamBam)
its a good one from mdawg whose jokes normally um... are not really jokes.

BamBam, stop pretending you are what your icon is. You're not a medicated baby head with sarcasm issues and a British accent (I hope; nothing is certain).

As for the joke, it took me a while to get it. I like it, somewhat.

Not bad, mdawg.

Quite a clever way to get out of that one.
