Partly Facetious: The Khan is modern gentleman

"The Khan and his team of merry men must stop because it's becoming quite embarrassing and..."
Published November 21, 2019

"The Khan and his team of merry men must stop because it's becoming quite embarrassing and..."

"First off, The Khan is a modern gentleman so when you say his team of merry men that's a serious omission because women form a large, if not a larger, portion of his supporters."

"I concede."

"Secondly, The Khan feels very, very strongly about making previous civilian chief executives accountable, and I reckon that's a good thing, unless and until you do that corruption will continue."

"I concede that too. And this was the main component of his manifesto that catapulted him to power and need I add that continues to be his major priority indicated by all his speeches and those of his merry men and women..."

"OK, so then I can't understand what is so embarrassing about his anger at the departure of Nawaz Sharif and that too on his own two legs rather than a stretcher or at least a wheelchair."

"Well, for a convicted gentleman to depart the country with such fanfare and luxury smacks of a deal and/or a dheel (unusual latitude) and so continuing to express anger publicly, The Khan and his merry gender neutral diehard supporters are actually acknowledging that they were not part of any deal or dheel."

"Ah I get it, so you reckon that the government was not complicit and therefore there is no surrender?"

"Using the word surrender implies you have no idea about the psychology of the ruling party. The Khan and his merry gender neutral supporters do not use battle terms like surrender and prefer cricket terms."

"In cricket, the umpire can delay play because of rain, I mean the matter has been delayed till Nawaz Sharif's return and..."

"You can't equate delay in the match with...with Nawaz Sharif's departure. I mean granted that an external factor, ill health, was the factor..."

"So what term would you use?"

"What about a follow on, you know when your batting side is so poor that its less than half the runs accumulated by the other side and..."

"You are so bad!"
