Meanings of the smoke for the upcoming papal conclave:

Black smoke means they're burning oil, which could be a sign of piston ring or valve stem seal wear

White smoke means they're burning coolant and the papal head gasket has blown

Tryst has an accurate sentiment, I'm willing to bet that St. Peter's engine block is a bimetal engine which is a contributing factor to head-gasket issues.

Well the Catholics aren't poor

@tryst Grey, whispy, pungent smoke means someone broke out the ecumenical bong. (It's made from all the statue penises Pope Pius IX had removed in the 19th century, some extremely bored cardinal glued them all together during a particularly arduous conclave in 1903, and, several conclaves later, a different one carved the penile conglomeration into its current form)

@tryst Burning oil usually produces blue smoke. Black smoke means that the papal injectors are knackered 😃

@snaprails @tryst We know the papal knackers are injected, so you're probly onto something (while they, of course, are onto lil boys).
