Well, about a month ago. little nuns have started appearing in odd places in my home. The first popped up by my computer. I thought she was a little Puritan but closer examination showed she was a Sister of Charity. Another turned up on my Stairway To Heaven. Black and white but not terrifying. The most recent is sitting on a dusty shelf in my bathroom. She is the dreaded Ursuline! Why me? Are there more to be found? What have I done to be so stalked? SINS, in terror |

02 Feb 07 - 07:01 PM (#1956092) Subject: RE: BS: Tiny Little Nuns From: SINSULL Wesley, Even I got rapped across the knuckles. Once I remember was because I (and everyone else in the class) failed a 100 word surprise spelling test of words we had never seen before and I have not seen since. I was a straight A student and still failed. Go figure. Actually, one beating (across the back of the legs with a pointer/cane) every time she made a mistake on a multiple division problem led to threat of a lawsuit when Elaine Pity's mother decided it was extreme. It was horrifying to watch and went on for about five minutes. When Sister Blister got really bored or really mad she used the metal side of the ruler across the knuckles - it cut. I never endured that but my brothers did. And if you flinched, you got two more. My younger brother was decked by a nun and knocked unconcious in the third grade. They made him promise not to tell my parents and in return he got little extras. Add that to the priest who was banging little boys and I have to admit I don't have fond memories of my early school days. |

07 Feb 07 - 11:29 PM (#1960722) Subject: RE: BS: Tiny Little Nuns From: TRUBRIT When I was about nine my family moved close to the Scottish border and my sister and I both went to school in Gretna Green which was just across the Scottish border, inside Scotland. Evidently the rules were different up there because the teachers were allowed to hit us. Punishment was holding your hand out and the teacher would hit it with a leather strap. My sister's teacher was nicknamed 'Killer Munroe' -- she was so terrified of him she did EVERTYHING right to avoid even the possibility of a belt. I was a good student and did well, except for one fateful day when I had more than two errors on my spelling test and was hauled out in front of the class - along with the LOSERS - to extend my hand for 'the belt'. I know the teacher was light on me because I was a teacher's pet but don't know what hurt worse - the hit or the humiliation. Every week we would change our seats according to our rank in class. The desk furthest back to the right went to the best student and on down to the front -- nearly always in front of the class was a little kid with a huge strawberry birthmark on his face who received 'the belt' virtually daily.........; we smarty pants sat on the back row and just changed our seats amongst ourselves. What a system!!!!! And this was not in a Catholic school - this was a regular public school..... |

She scared the crap out of me-the only proper decriptive word was "Witchy" - I got hit once with that strap-can't recall why. The atmosphere was not condusive for learning. I just learned a while ago that the most arrogant & abrasive priest anyone ever met - ran off & married a nun. In my dreams I picture he & Bonaventure together--a match made in Hell. Tee Hee!

01 Sep 07 - 02:31 AM (#2138198) Subject: RE: BS: Tiny Little Nuns From: Naemanson I just stumbled on to this thread and I think it is shameful, yes, shameful, that someone has been foisting nuns off on poor Sins. Our poor sweet lady, so innocent, so undeserving of such attentions. Of course, I am now working in a Catholic school. I see real nuns in action. They no longer wear the nun uniform. I guess they kicked the habit. And they no longer beat the children. I was pleased to note that I did not flinch when I first met Sister Regina and Sister Vincent. Sister Barbara is a little scary... As for Wesley's comment way back in whenever, I too was beaten by a nun when I was little. My parents took me out of Catholic school shortly after they found the welts on my back. Anyway, those who are guilty of doing such things to Sins should PM me immediately... I can afford to help! |

Frinds who had experienced nuns at school used to comment on two of the teaching orders that "the Mercies have no charity and the Charities have no mercy.

They are obnoxiously cute. I prefer the Hallelulahing Nuns. Micca by the way was amazed at how tiny the nuns are. Exactly 1" tall from the tips of their upraised arms to the tips of their oh so sensible shoes. And there are several different habits represented. Why were they even manufactured?

There seem to be several species represented, one at least has religious leanings as it is standing next to the VM in the Lourdes grotto replica (Dont ask!!!!) Is this due to Climate change? Is Maine suddenly colder?/due an extra hard winter? or maybe there is a world shortage of Nuns? or perhaps the "perpetrator" is short sighted and made a purchasing (or shop-lifting) error? (maybe you are a haven for stolen nuns!!!) Maybe its the great Penguin expedition to determine if the world is round and you are harbouring the Penguin equivelent of Christoforo Columbus!!! or a penguin Marco Polo. I offer the above as suggestions a hypothesis for possible explanations, based on Scientific examination of the current situation, the pooping penguin I know the origin of as I bought it at Hannafords the other day AFTER the first "new"penguin had appeared and It was presented in its box as supplied and I can get a note from my Mum to say so! |

I mused that the store supplying my tormentor must have run out because no nw additions to tne conent have appeared in many months. So...this morning I go to hang an oven mitt by what was once a wood stove's chimney and there in all her glory was another white nun hallaluyahing for all to see.

The smallest is Sister Fidelis, 85 years old and tiny but still sharp and bright. There is an older nun all bent over with osteoporosis. I haven't spoken with her but I see her at banquets and mass. Note, I am about as un-Catholic as anyone can be. It is an interesting study. |
