Is the Pope Polish?

A phrase that used to mean 'absolutely yes' when Pope John Paul II was the pope, but now it means 'no'. It's a substitute for your true answer. Instead of saying no outright, you lead the person to your answer by saying 'is the pope Polish'? And of course, the answer is 'no', thus implying that 'no' is the answer to the question they asked you before.

Bronislaw: Are you going to make pierogi tonight for dinner?
Oles: Is the Pope Polish?

*as the Pope isn't currently Polish, Bronislaw knows that Oles means 'no, I will not make pierogi tonight for dinner'*
