How about Cardinal Tatosalad?
I’m pretty sure if W. C. Fields were alive, he’d support the Archbishop of Brussels to be the next Pope.
You don’t even need puns- the word “pope” is inherantly funny by itself.
Try it: “pope”. “Popity-pope-pope”
“pooooooooooooooooooooooopppppppppppppppeeeeeeeeeeee”
POPE!!!
POPE!!!
See?
One more Cardinal: The Archbishop of Mechelen-Brussels is Godfried Danneels. Every time I read that name I hear W.C. Fields after he’s slammed his fingers in the car door.
