A few years ago there was a thread about what [Pope name you’d choose](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=10930076#post10930076) if you were Pope’d. Had a lot of really funny stuff in it. Got threadspotted. I shared some of the funniest ones with my brother, and we both agreed that the best one was “[Pope Tyrannosaurus Awesome](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=10930076&postcount=42)”.

My brother is never one to forget a joke, and he still thinks it’s pretty funny. So he asked a friend on his rpg forum to make a very specific photoshop for him- and now he wants me to share it with you.

Ladies and gentlemen of the Dope, I present to you: [Pope Tyrannosaurus Awesome](http://i49.tinypic.com/xksm7o.jpg).

Brother: “My life is now complete.”

Killer picture!

This has been saved to my desktop wallpaper folder. If your brother ever becomes a Doper, this has to be his user name.

Oh - and band name!
