What’s hotter than old men kissing each other?

When it’s Arab and Jewish old men, with the Pope watching.

The husband says this guy is a yakuza. I say he’s well shod!

Even the Pope would be jealous if he saw these shoes!

A fashion crime against the pope on the tarmac

Is it just me, or do you think this is a fashion crime committed in broad daylight on the airport tarmac? How can the First Lady of Mexico greet the pope in a matching outfit? I am thrilled that she won’t cede all the spotlight to the creepy guy with the gold cross.

Demure, feminine, and yet not unlike wearing a white lace gown to a wedding where you are not the bride.

 

Vatican gets Benetton to pull Pope’s Unhate image

Confessionals in Madrid serve double purpose

From JoeMyGod (image & text):

Temporary public confessionals have been erected in Madrid in anticipation of a papal visit. Who else can totally see this installation being repurposed come nightfall?

An early Xmas for Pope: Topless gymnasts on altar

I love the Youtube comment from WoodyLittle: This is EXACTLY like every bachelorette party I’ve ever attended…only gayer.

Update: My mom demands credit for spotting this on Gawker and submitting the link!

“Good to know,” the husband says

Apparently the super-queenie and very ugly Pope now suggest that condom use is OK for male prostitutes. (Via Ericthefez). I love the illogic of its use “in some cases.”

“There may be a basis in the case of some individuals, as perhaps when a male prostitute uses a condom, where this can be a first step in the direction of a moralization, a first assumption of responsibility, on the way toward recovering an awareness that not everything is allowed and that one cannot do whatever one wants,” the pope said.

Do you think that the male prostitutes should use them by themselves, or with their clients who may include married men and ladies who are paying for their services. Maybe you need to be irresponsible in order to be given permission to be responsible? That’s very Zen, no?

Woman topples Pope at Xmas Eve mass

Apparently this lady in the red coat loves the pope more than she should. Love the shouting! And tourists continue snapping pix. According to papal sources, the fangirl had no “malicious intentions.”
