In view of a reference to a vow of silence in a monastery in a former post of mine, I found this joke extremely funny!
A certain monastery has a rule that every ten years each monk gets to break his vow of silence by uttering two words. A new recruit is anxious to make his feelings about the conditions of the monastery known, and waits the ten years, then utters the words: "Food bad." Ten more years go by, and he thinks of what he wants to say, and declares: "Bed hard." Finally at the end of another ten years, he proclaims: "I quit." The head monk says, "I'm not surprised. You've done nothing but complain ever since you got here!"
