"Do you remember the PML-N said that they would celebrate the Independence Day the entire month of August so my question is, considering that a week of the month has already passed, where are these celebrations being held?"
"Haven't you seen the massive Pakistani flag draped on the side of the Foreign Office?"
"That's not celebration, that's simply an eyesore - I mean there appears to be no taste and..."

"Budget making and basic arithmetic?"
"Don't be facetious."
"Statistics and how not to manipulate..."
"Don't be silly anyway the subject that must be introduced is Politics of Reconciliation and I propose Zardari Sahib as the Head of Department, Maulana Fazl as a professor and..."
"And Mian sahib as a faculty member?"
"No, I would advise him to take the course."
"Oh dear."
