Living with seminarians is a unique experience.  There is a special kind of humor that keeps them sane.  They are dealing with very high church Theology.  To balance they occasionally go to the other end.  Here are some examples.  This one is:  "It is your turn to change change his diaper."
The popes sometimes get distracted and when someone mentioned that Jesus calls us to be fishers of men, Pius X said: "I caught a fish and he was this big."
John Paul II said: "Mine was this big."
Pope Benedict said:  "Mine was this big."
Pope John XXIII said:  "I already ate my fish."

As you can imagine these paintings are in the dining room.
But it gets worse, because the ceiling is painted like a mural and on one scene it
looks like Jesus is giving a teaching about "not feeding the seminarians garbage."
