Partly Facetious: A decadent Western celebration
"Valentine's day is over...what did you do?"
"I woke up, said my prayers, then had breakfast, said my prayers, and had lunch, said my prayers..."
"Are you being facetious?"
"No, I didn't change my routine at all - see this is a decadent Western celebration and...."
"Does it matter who came up with an idea to celebrate Valentine's Day! Why can't you learn to celebrate life?"
"Well, if you put it that way then you know I am also rather political and President Mamnoon Hussain said not to celebrate V-Day."
"Since when have you started listening to Mamnoon Saheb carefully? Besides he has a sour expression, almost as sour as Dar's..."
"That is so unfair. His face structure is kind of sour reflecting his years of struggle I guess, while Dar just gets that sour expression if you dare to challenge his claims."
"Now if Mian sahib had said not to celebrate Valentine's day I would have understood - he loves Pakistani food..."
"I hear Mian sahib loves coffee at Selfridges."
"He goes there for the ambiance - do you think our local and foreign franchises can provide that ambiance in this country?"
"You are being facetious anyway Mian sahib's special assistant or is it advisor Kirmani was thundering against the PPP in Azad Jammu Kashmir and..."
"And that's what I simply love about the logic employed by PML-N - the deaths are of loyalists of other parties but does that stop them thundering and requesting for a resignation!!! Hell, no!"
"This is called eating your cake and having it too."
"It's actually having your cake and eating it too."
"Nah, with the PML-N you need an upside down proverb."
