They see me popin', they hatin'

What else should we call it? The Batmobile? Dude's not Batman!

On today's Pope My Ride!

In German, we call it Papamobil. Much more dignified
- Dadmobile, got it.
  ...dammit, how did I not catch that 'pope' comes from 'papa'
  
  I think in Latin it's papa. In German, it's Papst which is close. Only the vehicle is Papamobil because Latin is more dignified i guess
- So, where da mamamobil?
  
  2025, the year of the first trans pope?

i mean, if the pope is afraid of dying and going to heaven; we're all screwed.

I mean, "popemobile" really doesn't sound like a fancy or formal name for something.

Ice-cream van? Hold on, it isn't. On an ice cream van it says "mind this child", on this one there is "I don't" before.

The American version would require a modified F350HD with a fork lift to get the Pope lifted into the back.
Edit: actually kind of hoping to see if they do that for am American tour when he visits Chicago and such
- If i saw it right, the hearse for Pope Francis's funeral was a modified DODGE RAM 1500. When it backed up to the door of the basilica with the coffin the back, it looked like someone just made a run to the hardware store to pick up timber for fixing the benches.
  
  That's fucking awesome. I want my hearse like that too.
- The American version would require a modified F350HD with a fork lift to get the Pope lifted into the back.
  And rigged to roll ~~coal~~ incense.
- They're gonna chauffeur the new pope around in the killdozer
  
  Man that would be metal as fuck.
- Why forklift? The current pope isn't that fat.
  
  Obviously the pope's protective glass box is permanent, and must be slotted into the truck. The moment they decide you're pope, into the safety box you go.
  (Theres a 40K\golden-throne joke in there somewhere but I'm feeling lazy today.)
  
  I just assumed it would be insanely high off the ground.
- I never noticed that it changes from one country to another. I thought the Vatican just brought a ton of those and sent them before the Pope traveled.

“In 2007, the popemobile”
- "In 2002, pope John Paul II"

What should we call it then ..... someone should ask the Internet to find a new name for the 'Popemobile'
- Then the winner will be Popey McPopeface.
- I am partial to autopopile.
- Paedomobile
- You know it'll be something like "Mountain Dew Kampfy Ride" or some shit.
  
  Even worse: "popey mc popeface"

Much better than Sedia gestatoria.

It’s a shame that the article appears to have been edited since.
