The Papal Conclave: Opportunity for Hilarity

Let's be honest, if it weren't for this class, I probably wouldn't pay much attention to the Papal Enclave. I'm not Catholic, or particularly religious, and so it doesn't matter much to me. I do, however, appreciate the many memes, satirical stories, and jokes that seem to be floating around the internet. Here are some of my favorites.



The Onion also had a satirical article criticizing the outfits of the Cardinals a la Fashion Police. I add an examle below.
Caption Reads: "CARDINAL MARTINEZ'S STYLISTS MUST HAVE TAKEN A DAY OFF, BECAUSE IT'S UNUSUAL FOR THIS HOLY FASHION MAVEN TO MAKE A FAUX PAS. WE'VE SAID IT BEFORE, AND WE'LL SAY IT AGAIN: BUSY EMBROIDERY IS CONCLAVE KRYPTONITE!"

I'll continue adding memes as I find them. Just hoping the conclave lasts!
