The Difference Between Calculating and Logical Thinking

(Note: this does not actually have an inappropriate ending, but I understand if you want to skip this story. It’s basically a joke.)

There are two nuns. One is calculating, while the other uses logic. It is already dark, and they are outside of their nunnery.

Calculating nun: Have you noticed that a man has been following us for thirty seconds? He doesn’t seem to know what he wants.

Logic nun: Reasonable Inference, he wants to violate us.

Calculating: Good heavens! At this rate, he’ll have us in 15 minutes. What do we do?

Logic: The only reasonable method, of course, is to walk faster.

Calculating: But at this rate, he’ll catch us in a minute.

Logic: The only reasonable thing to do is to split up. You go there, I’ll continue over here. He can’t catch both of us then.

They split up, and the man chose to continue following Sister Logic.

Sister Calculating arrived safely at the convent but was worried about Sister Logic. Finally, she saw Sister Logic enter the convent.

Calculating: Logic, you finally come back! Thank the Lord! Can you tell me what happened?

Logic: He continued to follow me. The only reasonable thing happened.

Calculating: What reasonable thing?

Logic: He caught up with me.

Calculating: Good heavens! What did you do?

Logic: I did the only reasonable thing. I lifted my skirt up.

Calculating: God, what about that man?

Logic: He also did the only reasonable thing. He pulled his trousers down.

Calculating: Oh my God! Then what happened?

Logic: The result is indeed very reasonable. A nun with her skirt up must run much faster than a man with his trousers down, don’t you think?

Amen!

修女的反应 -数学和逻辑思维的差异

有两个修女,一个是数学修女,另一个逻辑修女。现在已经快天黑了,但她们离修道院还有很远的路程。

数学:妳有没有注意到,后面有个男人已经跟踪我们有三十八分钟三十秒了,不知道他想要做什么?

逻辑:合理的推断,他想侵犯我们。

数学:天哪!在这样的速度下,他会在十五分钟之内抓到我们的,我们该怎么办?

逻辑:唯一合理的方法当然是走快一点。

数学:但是在这样的速度下,他再一分钟就能抓到我们了。

逻辑:那,唯一合理的方法就是我们分开逃,妳走那边,我走这边,他不可能两个都抓。

结果,那个男人选择继续跟踪逻辑修女……..

数学修女平安地到达修道院,但很担心逻辑修女会不会出事,然后就看到逻辑修女进了门。

数学:逻辑修女妳终于回来啦!感谢主!快告诉我发生什么事了?

逻辑:他继续跟踪我后,发生了唯一合理的事情。

数学:什么合理的事情?

逻辑:他抓到我了。

数学:天哪!那妳怎么办?

逻辑:我做了唯一合理的事,即把裙子拉起来。

数学:天哪,那,那个男人呢?

逻辑:他也做了唯一合理的事,把裤子褪了下去。

数学:我的天哪!那后来呢?

逻辑:结果当然也是很合理的。一个把裙子拉起来的修女,一定跑得比一个把裤子褪下去的男人快得多,妳說不是吗?

阿门!
