Diannnne's Joke about Stamford

[Diane CBPFC]

The Heretic

I was walking across a bridge one day, and I saw a man standing on the edge, about to jump off. So I ran over and said, "Stop! Don't do it!" "Why shouldn't I?" he said. I said, "Well, there's so much to live for!" He said, "Like what?" I said, "Well, are you religious or atheist?" He said, "Religious." I said, "Me too! Are your Christian or Buddhist?" He said, "Christian." I said, "Me too! Are you Catholic or Protestant?" He said, "Protestant." I said, Me too! Are your Episcopalian or Baptist? He said, "Baptist!" I said, "Wow! Me too! Are your Baptist Church of God or Baptist Church of the Lord? He said, Baptist Church of God!" I said, "Me too! Are your Original Baptist Church of God or are you Reformed Baptist Church of God?" He said, "Reformed Baptist Church of God!" I said, "Me too! Are you Reformed Baptist Church of God, Reformation of 1879, or Reformed Baptist Church of God, Reformation of 1915?" He said, "Reformed Baptist Church of God, Reformation of 1915!" I said, "Die, heretic scum!" and pushed him off.

Tut tut

Peter, why 'tut tut'?

I imagine Peter was "tut-tutting" because pushing people off bridges shouldn't be encouraged. At the very least, it's bad manners.

Or he was simply "tut-tutting" because it was taking too long to get to the punchline.  :

[peter]

What type of bridge was it it could have been a foot or a railway  or road or one that went over water, all have different outcomes so I Tut Tutted.

  Has Diane spelt her name incorrectly on purpose in this thread's title?

[Mince]

Of course not.

[Tom]

Oh no... I see she's corrected it now.

[peter]

Oh no... I see she's corrected it now.

What happened? what happened?

[Mince]

Tom was imagining things.

[Tom]

Nope - my mistake... she's incorrectly spelt her name again! 

Sherlock Tom thinks a mystery is afoot...
