"I have noted that ridicule is a much more effective form of attack than anger - be it righteous or not."
"Even if the anger is displayed in the national assembly which incidentally lacked quorum as a quick glance at the numbers attending Wednesday's session showed much less than one third of the strength of the chamber."
"Hey, it wasn't as if the numbers were needed to pass the finance bill or anything. The Lisper Abbasi, the Prime Minister, thundered while facing our Speaker whose expression remained deadpan but his moustache gave his feelings away - it constantly twitched and swiveled in righteous indignation in support of the life time party leader..."
"Don't be facetious - I didn't see his moustache move at all."
"Hey, Sheikh Rashid, referred to as Sheedah Tulley in jest, may refer to the moustache as Hitlerite because he accuses the Speaker of shutting off his mike but be kind to the Speaker - the guy's political career may be over as he has thrown in his lot with Maryam Nawaz and without Humza's astute use of the mechanism of elections..."
"Oh shush, anyway Ayaz Sadiq, the only sadiq (truthful) in that party, is a loyal member of whoever comes to real power in the party and..."

"How can you be facetious about Nawaz Sharif and still remain a member of the party?"
"You reckon Nawaz Sharif and his daughter do not understand sarcasm or irony or facetiousness?"
"Nope, they understand anger and threats and direct accusations - nothing covert if you know what I mean."
"Give an example."
"I was born intelligent but education ruined me."
"Don't think that applied. I mean the way the court cases were handled and continue to be handled do not show any display of intelligence."
"How about a thief broke into my house last night he started searching for money so I woke up and told him I had sent it all to India."
"That's a good one, ha ha."
"Or that I told the thief to contact my accountant and the thief asked for his address which I gave and he never saw that it was a London address."
"Ha ha ha."
