Partly Facetious : Wearing mask a sign of weakness?

"This is what happens when you ridicule those who are spiritual."
Published May 28, 2020

"This is what happens when you ridicule those who are spiritual."
"I have never ridiculed anyone, leave alone those who are spiritual. I have great respect and admiration for Islam's sufi saints..."
"I was referring to ridicule of The Khan's Third Wife, particularly for the veil she wears that covers all but the eyes..."
"Eyes are the window to the soul and need I add The Khan's soul..."
"Don't be facetious, this is no matter for being facetious; I know for a fact that many Khanzadehs, who incidentally are mostly the educated or socially aware and mainly resident in cities, have been complaining privately that Naya Pakistan, New Pakistan, must not project a dress code that is centuries old and not really..."
"Stop it right now, I will not have it. Let me ask you a question. What are they wearing today the world over?"
"Different clothes in different countries."
"But what is now a common code in all countries."
"I don't get you."
"All are wearing a mask to protect themselves against the Coronavirus and the mask covers the entire face but for the eyes."
"Ahhhhh I get it and you reckon Wife Number 3..."
"I ain't saying no more; and need I add men as well as women are now wearing the mask. Even The Khan wears one now."
"I know one person who doesn't."
"Trump dances to a different tune than the rest of us ordinary mortals."
"No I meant Buzdar, the Powerful."
"Are you being facetious again?"
"Nope, as I said The Khan wears a mask while The Buzz doesn't and gets everyone around him to wear a mask so that he is protected and..."
"You reckon it's because he is vain about his looks, wants us to behold him in all his glory and..."
"That may apply to Trump but not to The Buzz...for unlike Trump The Buzz needs to keep only one person happy, The Khan, which requires listening in letter and spirit to what his spiritual guide tells him and reportedly he has been told that if he wears the veil...oops, sorry the mask...he will lose his chief ministership..."
"Ah now that is clear."
