I drink it! It's mostly a gag to make your friends hate you and to add a worse dimension to competitive shots but it's also a complex alternative to bitters in cocktails.
The joy is in taking something objectively bad and learning to enjoy it anyway, like Chicago winters or The Catholic Church
I'm guessing he's holding a Chicago Italian Beef sandwich, (as shown on The Bear), it's a quintessential Chicago thing. Pizza should be deep dish, though. Huge blunder! 😂 Not sure about the liquor.
No, I am a Chicagoan and that is Chicago thin crust! That's the way we eat it, in square and it BLOWS any other pizza from around the world away. Lots of Chicagoans LOVE thin crust. Cornmeal on the bottom, greasy on top!
Yeah, I grew up in Chicago, I like thin and deep dish. Had a summer job in an Italian restaurant so I saw it all, lol. But as far as different city's food identities, you have to admit that Chicago's identity is deep dish pizza.
That's true, but still. Chicago thin crust is nothing to sneeze at. THE BEST! And still nowhere else in the world has pizza as good as Chicago thin crust, not even Italy.
My mom was Italian and we spent a month every summer with her family. Because “Mom” became “Mama” I called my dad “ Papa” , much to the amusement of my cousins.
I actually never knew that! And at my age I should! I never noticed them when I was in those cities. The internet can be a wonderful thing for learning!!
We call it dibs and it’s glorious. Annoying, but I totally get it having rented for 30 years in Chicago. I have never dibbed but I have shoveled out of many spaces and wished I had the nerve to dib.
Of all the Pittsburgh parking chairs I've photographed, this one's the most unique, and probably the one that most people likely wouldn't touch, except, you know, if it was game day....
It's got a cop motor, a four hundred and forty cubic inch plant. It's got cop tires, cop suspensions, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters, so it'll run good on regular gas. What do you say? Is it the new Popemobile or what?
😂😂😂 I'm from Chicago AND old enough to remember Da Bears/Da Bulls SNL skits, lol. Best one was w/Jordan in it. I'm not one bit religious, but nice to have a Pope from Chicago who hates the fascists in charge. 👏
Yes… you heard about the Creole connection? That fills me with joy! (I also have New Orleans family with African connections, but they came through my Sicilian grandpa.)
They are mad that the things they want to destroy are actually the right ways to be a good person. They are being forced to admit that they've been doing it wrong and the highest church says so.
Yes, I’ve always felt this. He legitimized, even legalized, public hatred, prejudice, and violence, and in the process uncovered the dark underbelly of our country.
This will be the last meme. In the long run trump may have done us a favor by outing all the people filled with hatred and racism. If we survive his bull 💩
It forces us to imagine other American popes. Imagine for example the deranged earth that gives us a Tampa Pope. Or like a pope from a place that doesn’t scan at all. Dubuque Pope. The discomfort of a Nashville Pope
Friends, it might’ve even been a good one like a Memphis Pope or Louisville Pope.
As a native Chicagoan my feed was a so full of Pope memes- who knew there could be so many. My favorite so far is the “body of Christ” as a Chicago style hot dog.
I want a president from NYC who's only problem with the new pope is that he's the pope of deep dish pizza and that's an insult to any New York Catholic. I want a real fake fight between the Pope and President of the US about pizza that goes on for years. Lets make controversies "stupid", not stupid
I thought Pizzaballa would win. I wrongly thought the Pizzaballa brand would be irresistible to the cardinals, but maybe Leo plied them with deep dish, securing the win
I attended St. John the Baptist Catholic School from 1st through 8th grade which culminated in being selected as May Queen and given the honor of crowning the Virgin Mary at Mass on Mother's Day.
So, obviously, I'm now non-practicing.
IMO They selected him to be a repudiation of this regime. If Kamala were in office and the biggest news was three days on the color suit she wore or something Doug Emhoff did, we'd probably have a pope from Africa or Asia
True. We’d have different problems, but we’d have a functioning government, be fighting from a position of power, and Trump might maybe have gotten jail time.
Is the Space Pope reptilian? LMFAOTV Religion, all of them have made me laugh since I was 6! HAPPY FRIDAY MORNING J! How do we save the World from putin and the ignorance of trump and the power of America?
Saturday in the park
I think it was the Fourth of July
Saturday in the park
I think it was the Fourth of July People praying, people kneeling
A Pope giving wafers
And singing Italian hymns
“Corpo e, sangue di cristo
Can you dig it?”
(Yes, I can)
And I've been waiting such a long time
For Saturday
Even better, they’re Afro-Haitian. (From September 2024) “Sen. JD Vance stood by his false claim that Haitian migrants were eating pets in Springfield, Ohio — an unsupported story that former President Donald Trump has also echoed on the debate stage and on social media.”
What I want to know is, will the Vatican kitchens now stock sport peppers, celery salt, and neon green pickle relish in quantity? Inquiring minds want to know… 😁 #ChicagoDog
Good News is we have a #BlackWokePope
1900 Census shows that the Popes maternal grandfather born in Haiti, Black, & a cigar maker. Grandmother also Black❣️
Me too! And the Pope is a White Sox fan & we really need his prayers this year😬
You mean to tell me that Chicago gets to claim Michael Jordan, the first Black President AND the first American Pope? Good lord you ain't going to be able to tell them NOTHING.
Oh no, I was all excited as a Chicagoan, but he's a *White Sox* fan?! Oh well, I'll give him a pass since Jordan played for the WS org, but only for that reason. 🤣
Yes, I loved the Cubs growing up in Chicago in the 70s/80s & you never really lose that. And being North-siders we're not allowed (nor want to be) White Sox fans 😂. I'm not religious, but I love that the Vatican chose an American who despises fascism & our current leaders, so yay! Feels like a win👏

One is Italian, red and full of tomatoes...
The other is a virulent homophobe who has covered up institutionalized child abuse.

I don't know anyone who has ever drank it though. Supposed to be bitter.

I’m just waiting for the switch up from the good catholics.
Thank you Pope Francis for putting this man in place to become Pope.
LOL!
Of course Im being sarcastic. No one should have to suffer under this regime… like it was always obvious who the bad guys are.
In nomine patris et filii et spiritus sancti
Amen 😂

Vance is content being cruel and ignorant.
Her parents moved north in the Great Migration!!

Jamelle (LOL) behave
(Imagine if the pope was black)
Nuclear omg
So cool
AFT...
It's brilliant.
Friends, it might’ve even been a good one like a Memphis Pope or Louisville Pope.
New communion contracts: tavern style host, all corner pieces, and swap the wine for Malört.
588-2300… PONTIFF!
There’s a non-zero chance the pope knows all the words to the Super Bowl Shuffle.
I know it’s A.I. but it’s kinda funny
Sorry. I haven't finished this joke yet so you'll have to fill in the rest yourself.
I'm here all week. Dinner & matinee shows.
although, not recently
Luckily, Carl Hiaasen's new comic novel, FEVER BEACH, will be released on Tuesday, so we'll have something to do:

Are you a Christmas and Easter kind of Catholic, or deep dish?
I like deep dish too.
So, obviously, I'm now non-practicing.
One had to do with Papal Bulls

I do love how he’s already rallying us here in the US.
