I’m so mad at them for having dropped him. From the very beginning we knew it was a risky choice. It is a miss. Barbara Walters is à miss too of course but Pope Benedict should have been up there with Carter, Kissinger and Barker.

Agreed. 

 

The running joke of 'huge miss' is finally accurate. Barbara Walters and Nichelle Nichols were 2 misses I think could have been avoided. 

 

The former Pope? No reason he shouldn't of been Top 5 on this year's DL. Biggest miss of 2022 and, dare i say, of the last few years. 

 

Well to give some balance they were less than 24 hours from making the right call.

The Vatican can no longer be referred to as Frankie and Benny’s.

Actually great news for this deadpooler. He was on my 2022 list and I dropped him from 2023.

God doesn't approve of deadpooling, does he...

RIP Pope Benedict. My main memory of him is that when he spoke English he sounded like Von Smallhausen from Allo Allo.

My main memory is when he was comically pulled to the ground by some nutter on Christmas Eve midnight Mass in 2009.Kept replaying it in slow motion.:P:lol:

Normally, when one Pope dies, another one Popes up.

A current look at the deathlisters who foolishly dropped Pope Benedict and Barbara Walters on the 2022 list:

Just received my brother-in-law's list for next year. 

He put Pope Benny as his number 1 pick. 

It's all over the news this morning.

I'll admit that I have forgotten to take people off my list that have died earlier on in the year, but not when it's that prominent in the news on the actual day.
