"Nawaz Sharif was on another whirlwind trip to Karachi."
"Where does whirlwind come in? Karachi is the capital of Sindh, the largest city in the country, the financial capital, the..."
"Yes, yes but has Mian sahib ever done an all nighter there?"
"He will, if there is a need and there is no need."
"Does Mian sahib know that Karachi is a good place to eat fish?"
"Don't be silly, of course Mian sahib knows - but I don't think fish is a particular favourite, its white meat and it doesn't seem as if Mian sahib likes white meat, now red meat and shebdegh and harisa and..."
"Why do you reckon he doesn't like white meat?"
"White meat is healthier and let's be honest, in Punjab we seem to prefer red meat, that's why heart diseases, high cholesterol, cancer and blood pressure are more common here than in Karachi..."
"I always thought that this was because us Punjabis are into quantity."
"That's true, the average Punjabi is fatter than the average Sindhi and a lot fatter than the Urdu speakers..."
"Oh don't be facetious...anyway Mian sahib is on a whirlwind trip to Karachi for what?"
"He ain't stepping on any tails there - the PML-N tail stepping brigade is not going to say anything while accompanying the Prime Minister."
"Don't be facetious."
"Anyway he is there to inaugurate the Green Line."
"Will this get him votes in 2018?"
"Don't really think so, the MQM's hold on the city is significant and inroads have been made by PTI. Mian sahib continues to show a lack of interest in getting votes in the province..."
"By the way what's this obsession with inaugurations? And what's this obsession with advertisements at the tax payers' expense showing the Prime Minister and his family members and the cabinet and..."
"That's the advantage of being in government my friend. Free advertisement."
"Oh man!"
