This is sick--I totally agree with the comments of Amy Wellborn below...

Who is Matt Taibbi
Apparently, he's not twelve. Apparently he's an actual journalist who appears to be an adult.
Could have fooled me. Could have fooled the world, judging from his piece in the NYPress: The 52 Funniest Things About The Upcoming Death of The Pope
HAH! HAH!
52.Pope pisses himself just before the end; gets all over nurse.
51.After death, saggy, furry tits of dead Pope begin inexorable process of melting away into nothingness, like coldest of Sno-cones under faintest of suns.
50.Pope survives just long enough to be acquired by Isiah Thomas for Stephon Marbury, 2005 #1 pick and cash considerations. "We feel like we've made ourselves younger and more competitive," Thomas says.
49.After beating for the last time, Pope's heart sits there like a piece of hamburger.
48.Whole world waiting until the last minute for a sudden improvement of his condition. Long lines of girls in the Philippines kneeling and praying. Catholics everywhere with ears pressed to radios, transfixed. Pope gives one last groan, spits, dies.
47.Upon death, Pope's face frozen in sickening smile, eyes wide open and teeth exposed, like a baboon.
46.Beetles eating Pope's dead brains.


Amy Wellborn: "This is pathological. It's insane. It's evidence of a mind so distant from reality, so shut off from basic human feeling that one wonders why they're letting him have access to a computer, instead of keeping him locked up, counting his toes.
Here's the thing, my friends: gripe all you want about the bad old conservative pope, the repression and oppression he supposedly represents, his legacy of "traditionalism" that is supposedly such a bad thing...here's the alternative. Here are his enemies, those who despise him the most.
Dig those values. Dig that worldview. Live it. Love it. It's yours, all yours...."
