Papal Snatch Back
The Pope is suddenly against people kissing his ring – a tradition that dates back centuries. The Pontiff feels the practice is “non-hygienic” – ‘cause Heaven knows where that ring’s been. Call me old-fashioned, but I like a bit of theatricality with my religion. And I’ve never heard a Catholic priest turn down anything oral! But you know what I also like? A sassy Pope! Have you seen recent videos of the Pope’s meet-and-greets? Well, I’m sure that’s not what the Vatican calls ‘em, but people line up to meet the Pope, he extends his hand, they lean in to kiss the ring, and BANG – he snatches it back with a smile which seems to say, “Gotcha!” I’m all about a Papal snatch-back!
