One balmy evening in Rome

One balmy evening in Rome the Pope decides to take a walk. He slips out the rear door of the Vatican and is walking through the back alleys of Rome when he sees a ten-year-old boy smoking a cigarette.

The Pope gently says to him, “Young man, you’re much too young to smoke!”

The kid looks up at the Pope and says, “bang you!”

The Pope is completely taken aback. “What?” he says. “You say that to *me*, the Pontiff, the Vicar of Christ, the head of the Roman Catholic Church? I am the spiritual leader for millions of people, young man, the representative of God, and you dare to say that to ME? No, no, no, kid, bang YOU!”
