Parliament Recessed Unexpectedly
Two days ago, the Parliament of Shalampax began an unscheduled recess that is expected to last approximately two weeks. This is only an estimate, but the custodian of Parliament feels that it will require at least that long to adequately air out the Chamber of Parliament.
The airing became necessary when the restaurant in Parliament, which is available exclusively to our parliamentarians, made a tactical error two days ago. Without considering the consequences, it featured a lunch special that included an all-you-can eat baked bean and coleslaw buffet.
Members of Parliament, gluttonous pigs that they are, took “all you can eat” quite literally. Had any of them taken another bite, it likely would have killed them.
Late yesterday, I discussed the situation with Brokentoaster, a normally dozing Member of Parliament. He said, “The stench was so overwhelming in the Chamber of Parliament that I couldn’t sleep at all during the afternoon session. We were all farting nearly continuously. Although, I must say that I think that Cabinet members were far bigger windbags than the other Members of Parliament.”
Brokentoaster went on to say, “There was an upside to the situation. Judging from my digestive output that evening, through the night, and on into early today [yesterday], I don’t think my colon has ever been cleaner.”
Another benefit is that, with Parliament unexpectedly shut down, Members of Parliament won’t be able to create any new problems for the rest of us.
I don’t know about Shalampax but in Canada our politicians smell at the best of times.
@nonamedufus: I don’t know about in Canada, but here in Shalampax, we hold our noses a lot when our politicians walk among us.
The Republicans over here in the US are putting forth a plethora of beauties, including Sarah Palin and others to cleanse the stinking image politicians have these days. However, closer scrutiny indicates that these women stink in secret, so there is absolutely no upside to having them grace us with their beauty. Once a politician, they seem to develop a constipated attitude and we are back to square one.
@Gary Anderson: I’ve heard of this Sarah Palin person. But, I didn’t think she was American.
Am I misremembering? I thought she is Russian or she is in a country close enough to Russia, and she is close enough to the border, to be able to see Russia from her porch. Or something like that. Have I got that wrong?
