The Funniest Tweets From The Sistine Seagull

Tensions were high as the cardinals entered the Sistine Chapel to determine who would be the next pope. But, thanks to one little birdie the day saw some much-needed levity. The little bird, a seagull to be exact, hung out on the chimney throughout the conclave and provided an entertaining distraction from just staring at a pipe and waiting.

Naturally, the Seagull now has its own Twitter account because nothing happens anymore without one. Check out some of his funniest tweets from @SistineSeagull, who seems to have a deep love for Cheetos and Catholic ritual.
