Pope and Antichrist both now from Chicago

GOD’s representative on earth and the current manifestation of the Antichrist are now both Chicagoans, it has emerged. 

New Pope Leo XIV and rapper-turned-Nazi Kanye West both hail from the US city, and residents are proud to say the final war between heaven and hell will be led on both sides by local men.

Mayor Brandon Johnson said: ‘Whether you’re the head of the Catholic church or a despicable monster shrouding himself in more evil each day, it’s Chicago, baby!

“The home of deep-dish pizza and ER is now also the home of the leader of Christ’s legions and the one who bears the mark of the beast. Get you a town that can do both.

“I’d like to think his Holiness will be doing a hometown gig soon and that Kanye, who will have plummeted yet further from his current position of releasing a song called Heil Hitler with an actual Hitler sample, will have accepted his true destiny.

“He’ll rise from beneath our great lake – we’re a lakeshore city – which will boil away to nothing as an army of demons comes from the nether realm just as the Pope summons his warrior angels for the apocalypse. Hotels booking now, it’ll be quite a show.”

Briton Nathan Muir said: “I’ve been there. They’ve got this kind of big mirrored bean.”

Can you solve this dad's text that is leaving his children stumped?

A SIMPLE monosyllabic text from a father has left his family scratching their heads. Can you make sense of it?

The children of 48-year-old Martin Bishop have been turning to the internet for answers after receiving a confusing, poorly-written text message from their father that reads: ‘hi gone mum back soon pub’

Bishop’s son Ryan said: “It may look straightforward enough but we’ve been parsing this for hours. 

“Has he gone to the pub with mum, or is he saying that he’s at the pub alone and mum will be back home soon? Thanks to his stubborn refusal to use punctuation it’s impossible to tell.”

Daughter Kelly added: “We tried calling and messaging dad for some clarification, but he refused to pick up and only replied with a pig emoji. Does that mean he’s having a meal or that he’s swung by a farm? Both are equally plausible.”

One online commenter tweeted: “It’s wrong to assume this text was intentionally sent to his children. For all we know Martin could have been messaging his own mum or a secret family he’s got on the other side of town.”

Father-of-two Bishop said: “It’s pretty obvious. I’ve gone on a beer-tasting residential course and won’t be back until Monday. Oh and my wife has left me.”
