Partly Facetious: The boxing match!

"So our parliament was like a fish market."
Published January 28, 2017

"So our parliament was like a fish market."
"You know that is what I simply hate about you."
"But how can you disagree! The boxing match that was going on between Shahid Khaqan Abbasi..."
"Ha ha ha that is because SK does not have blood in his veins but LNG, and need I add, he is ensuring that all have the same kind of energy as he has with LNG...:"
"Don't be facetious besides don't refer to him as SK... SK stands for Shaukat Khanum and..."
"And I bet you if the LNG powered Minister was here at this moment in time your ears would have been boxed right about now."
"Haven't had my ears boxed since last I submitted an affidavit contending that..."
"And now my friend you may have angered the entire Cabinet so I am not sure your ears would be able to withstand the boxing."
"At worst, I could go deaf and believe me after what happened in parliament on Thursday perhaps it is best that we all go deaf."
"There I agree with you, the world has suddenly gotten extremely loud and my ears somehow cannot stand all that noise...."
"World?"
"Well, there are the Panama hearings which are angering the Nawalas no end, then there is Donald Trump who is pretty noisy and don't forget he has been in office less than a week and he has escalated the noise level so high - I mean there are protests in the US, then there are protests around the world..."
"Right, but when you said our parliament was like a fish market that wasn't an accurate proverb. I live in Islamabad and we don't have a fish market, we have fish shops which are very expensive and are nearly empty so no hassle, no..."
"So what market is noisy in the capital?"
"The sugar barons are pretty loud, the urea barons are also equally loud, the..."
"Hey, just because the First Family may have some business interests..."
"Before you complete the sentence, I concede your point."
"That does surprise me why do you concede so quickly?"
"I can't stand noise above a certain decibel level, remember."
