The Three Nuns and Their New Looks

Three nuns died in a car crash. They went up to heaven at the pearly gates. The gatekeeper said, "This really should not have happened, so I am going to send you back to earth as different people. Tell me who you want to be or look like." The first nun said, "I want to look like Madonna." Puff, you look like her now, but you can’t use her name. And sent her down to earth. The second one said, "I want to look like Marilyn Monroe." He then makes her look like her and sends her down to earth. The third nun said, "I want to look like Sarah Pipalini." The gatekeeper says to her, "Sarah Pipalini, who is that?" She gives the gatekeeper a newspaper article. He reads it, shakes his head no, and says, "It’s not Sarah Pipalini, it's Sahara pipeline laid by 500 men."

Explanation

Experiment

The joke plays on a misunderstanding of a name. The third nun asks to look like 'Sarah Pipalini', which sounds like a person's name. But, it turns out she meant 'Sahara pipeline', which is a large construction project. It is funny because of the absurd misunderstanding and the image of the nun wanting to look like a pipeline.
