Death is no laughing matter.....

Although it would be nice to take credit for such offensive trash, I have to give credit where its due: Matt Taibbi of the New York Press.

Selected tid-bits:

51. After death, saggy, furry tits of dead Pope begin inexorable process of melting away into nothingness, like coldest of Sno-cones under the faintest of suns.

45. Pope departs Earth at a time when Hitch is the top-grossing movie in the world.

28. Bears everywhere shitting in woods.

22. Mankind scrambles to choose new leader of inflexible, sexually morbid institutional anachronism; heretofore anonymous bureaucrat will instantly be celebrated as world;s holiest man as he travels to AIDS-stricken Africa to denounce the use of condoms.

7. According to ancient tradition, the slamming shut of the Bronze Door in St. Peter's Square announces the death of the Pope.

6. Normal Vatican procedure closes that door at 8pm every night and reopens it in the morning.

5. According to numerous reports, if the Pope dies at night this time no one will know what to do. (This is not a joke)

2. This is what happens when weird old men in dresses communicate with world with doors and chimneys.
