House of Cards fan?
I didn't create the troll. I didn't date the troll. In fact I hate the troll. I helped deflate the troll-- All done.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Or Bono without his glasses?
I think everyone knows there are two Bonos, right? There is the original Bono with the tush and there is the tragic Bono/Yoko hybrid with the glasses.
Jorge Mario Bergoglio is our the new Pope.
I can't have been the only person here who was rooting for Pope Scola.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
No, you really didn't want Cardinal Scola to be pope. Way too conservative.

Not that the now-Francis is anything to cheer about in that regard.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Really, a Jesuit? That's pretty cool.
Under the low bar of people opposed to homosexuality, gay rights, contraception and women's rights. I'll have to settle for "Could Be Worse."

I'm Presbyterian, I don't have much of a dog in this fight.
Granted, it'll affect billions of people and he's changing his name anyway...

So, he's going with Francis I
There's never been a Francis? Huh. Someone in Slate letters said its referencing Francis Assisi not Francis Xavier. All I know about those particularly names is that my father (who has the middle name Francis) went with Xavier over Assisi for his confirmation name because he was a 13 year old boy surrounded by 13 year old boys.
I'm guessing that's less of a problem at the Vatican. Hoping? Well, I wouldn't put any money on it.
