HELLO. YOU’VE BEEN SELECTED AS…(raspy trucker voice) “Da next Pope”…PRESS 1 TO ACCEPT. PRESS 2 TO SPEAK TO A CARDINAL.
- Ugh not again, it's so much paperwork to fix this.
The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) has assigned country code 379 to Vatican City, but it is not in use.
Vatican telephone numbers are in the form 06 698xxxxx, where 06 the area code for Rome, which surrounds Vatican City.
Pope is not dead. He's locked in the cellar and was able to get his hands on a broken phone that was only capable to call your number with very limited battery. He got the phone by beating guard to death with his food bowl.
... and you missed it.
- And he's a time traveler, it seems, since the call is dated to 2021
Hilarious, if true.
- Unfortunately the calling party can show whatever they want for the caller number, there's no validation that it's true.
  
  Doesn't the phone number come from the phone network and not the caller?
- TTV_Francis_4K_noscope has respawned.
We've been trying to reach you concerning your Vatican's extended warranty...
- It covers you for eternity.
When the call comes. You take it!!!!
