"St. Gregory" of the 6th century refused the title. He wanted to be a bishop only. But his successor claimed the title and he gained support for taking it.
From early in the 7th century the Pope has been the singular head of the Holy Roman Catholic Church.
His counterparts are Patriarchs in the other 4 Christian centers: Constantinople, Antioch, Jerusalem and Alexandria. They all rejected the Popes claim of a direct succession through Peter, as do we who rejected the lapsed believers in 250 A.D to the present day.

It's origins are likely from Vaudeville.
"Is the Pope Catholic? Does a bear poop in the woods?" both meant to draw attention to something that it pointedly obvious.
