Glad Everyone Had Fun at Connexions! comma, The Pope



So, [livejournal.com profile] thebratqueen asked what happened while she was away at Connexions, and I really REALLY wanted to answer, "well, the pope died", especially if it could have been the first comment in response to her post, but then I thought, gosh, that's tacky. True, but tacky. I mean really tacky. And funny. Not to mention potentially insulting if TBQ is Catholic. And maybe even if she's not.

Still, it just seems mean. Funny, and I'm all for comedy...but, mean.

So. *scratches self absently*

Well, that's that, then.

Bwah! Yes, kind of offensive, and yet funny!

When you're talking about a mysogynistic homophobe whose travels inspired the never-to-be-duplicated Pontifical souvenir of Soap-Pope-on-a-Rope, it's a little difficult not to wax satirical.
