Cabinet Appointments
In a stunning move, Manexposinghimself, Prime Minister of Shalampax, has just announced some bold new cabinet appointments.
Effective tomorrow, Manexposinghimself will be changing the wooden handles on the kitchen cabinets in his personal apartment with exquisite gold handles and edgings. As one would expect from our Prime Minister, the government will fund these new cabinet appointments with funds picked from the pockets of Shalampax’s citizens.





I need new kitchen flooring. Can you help?
Gold handles and knobs are fine in a spacious marble master bathroom but, frankly, I find them tacky in a kitchen – plus it tends to give the hired help like chefs and maids an uppity level of self importance. I’m disappointed that Manexposinghimself wouldn’t realize this before selecting his new cabinet appointments and positions.
@Patricia: Sorry, we Shalampaxians are only interested in ourselves.
@David: Manexposinghimself doesn’t know the meaning of the word “tacky.” Literally, he doesn’t know its meaning. “Conspicuous consumption,” now that’s something he understands.
Does “conspicuous conception” mean getting a woman pregnant in front of an audience? Not to be confused with the immaculate conception that the Christianists are always ranting about. Frankly, I think anyone can have sex in a clean neat manner so I don’t see the big deal myself.
I guess oral sex in public could be conspicuous consumption of a vagina or a penis – depending on the preferences of the consumer.
Are these types of conceptions and consumptions common activites in Shalampax? I’m pretty sure they would be good for the bar business if that is where they take place.
@David: That was an obvious typo (since corrected). Because of our views on children, he tries to avoid conception of any type.
Yes, it was an obvious typo but, honestly, I couldn’t resist the temptation to play with it a bit. Cheers!
