Anatomy of a thought:

[camwyn]

Oo, the cable went out at the office. So sad.

LJ says we have white smoke.

Habemus papam.

Habemus = we have. Papam should be obvious.

'We have', 'we've got', not so different.

'We've got', 'we got'…

Oh no.

Please don't tell me somebody in the Vatican just got a piece of paper from where the cardinals have been locked up, read the paper, slammed his hand down on a bell, and screamed "WE GOT ONE!" in Latin.

rassum frassum stinkin' friggin' brain.

I think you've crossed that thin line between "fandom" and "obsession"... but at least you're not calling him Pope Sidious like someone on a Star Wars thread is. *roll eyes*

*pats you*

Oy. Janelle has much to answer for.

*points vaguely upwards at the gamma radiation part of the comments* It's not obsession. My brain does this with nearly anything, not just fandoms that I'm into. F'rex, the Lutheran church I'm considering joining? It's an analogue of Canada. Calmer people, smaller population, more reasonable attitude towards life, founded on principles I can deal with, fewer raving demagogues in charge, plus, it's right next door.

Um. Given my attitudes towards Canada that probably isn't the best example.

Pope Sidious!


*dead*

Pope Palpatine I.

[cheezdanish.livejournal.com]

Hell no. Pope Yoda I. He's already short, wrinkly and into weird ass mysticism. He's halfway there already.

[vivian-shaw.livejournal.com]

Hasn't got the ears.

[cheezdanish.livejournal.com]

What, you're kidding, right? Yoda is MADE of ears. He's got a vestigal ear on his abdomen fer fuck's sake. He's got ears coming out the ears.

[vivian-shaw.livejournal.com]

Setting aside that extremely disturbing mental image, I meant that Pope Palpatine I hasn't got the ears to be Yoda correctly. Insufficient wiggly green length, if you get my drift.

[cheezdanish.livejournal.com]

Heh, I managed to disturb the Cynic. I win teh internets!

[vivian-shaw.livejournal.com]

Ah, bollocks.

*hands over teh internets with a pretty pink bow*

How about Qui-Pope Ginn? ;)

[mephron]

I'm pretty sure he's a Jedisuit.

Does this mean we'll have to deal with whoever is the next head of the College of Cardinals falling into lava then being encased in life-supporting armor?

*sigh* Popeachu and Cardinal Vader. Right.

[camwyn]

Dude, if that happened, do you have any idea how many young and middle-aged Catholics would come back to the Church?

[vivian-shaw.livejournal.com]

Okay, look, if the Pope was half as cool as Vader on a bad day, I would be sucking down bad communion wine with the rest of 'em.

[mephron]

I'm gonna be burning the midnight electrons working on that image, you realize.

Oh well. It's for a good cause.

(What? My amusement and the amusement of others is a good cause.)

Would they play The Imperial March at Mass?
