"Of course I do, it's supposed to decrease cooking time, right?"

"Right, that's one way to look at it, but what I was referring to, is that if pressure builds up in the cooker you have to release it otherwise it can blow up the cook."

"Whatever do you mean? Oh, I get it. You are referring to our Prime Minister as the cook and the pressure courtesy the conclusions drawn by the Joint Investigation Team based on those international conspirators, you know those dratted people in the Ministry of Justice UAE and the Attorney General of the British Virgin Islands who is also a member of the Cabinet and the Khan who is a bad man and a liar and a..."

"You have the Bhutto Zardaris why not the Sharif Dars?"

"Oh, you are so bad."
