Saw a picture of Whiny Donny and the Pope and I thought: what was wrong there?

[question everything]

And then realized,instead of his regular sour whiny face he was... smiling. Or, trying his best to pull the edges of his lips upward. With great difficulty.

4. What I found interesting is that I rarely see Francis frowning.

Even when he looks stern, he usually has a bit of a kindly twinkle. He is a generally genial, gentle, well-intentioned person, and that usually shows through. (Unlike Ratzinger.)

Not this time. That looks like fury, disgust, and calculating the distance to the exorcism room.
