hahaha brilliant!
easily one of your best yet!
and the purpose of this article is?
This really made me laugh!
Sheer brilliance, Ms. Abira! :)
@Sami, why you be an unhumorous fascist.
Abira!!
Oh my God!!
The History one stuck so close!
And the factory/wages one was great!
On history, let me quote a parent:
"Son, you did A Levels History in Pakistan and got an A. By the standards of this (low education standards) country, you have an MA. Now please take something with practical applications".
And Abira, where and when is this revolution coming from? I wish I could believe you, but the only ones who want to see a revolution are religious maniacs, and their version of revolution is what they did in FATA; kill the traditional elites, kill the police, leave the military alone, impose themselves in power and let chaos ensue as perpetual war begins.
Haha!!! A very tongue-in-cheek writing. Really enjoyed reading the bitter truth with the sprinkling of wit.
