Il-figolla ta’ Alfred Zammit

Published: March 21, 2012 at 6:13pm

The Holy Suppository gears up for Easter weekend

So yesterday on the Labour Party’s radio station, the decidedly undishy Alfred Zammit (but he’s on radio, so it doesn’t matter), in the throes of his usual religious fervour (but I thought God hated homosexuals! hasn’t Alfred been told, or is he trying to suck up to him?) ran on and on about the passion of Christ, li l-Maltin għandhom ħafna devozzjoni waqt ir-Randan, and figolli, and kwarezimal, u l-irxoxt & c & c.

“Issa,” he told his audience, “għandi kompetizzjoni addattata ma’ dan iż-żmien tas-sena – figolla ta’ Zammitellu mgħotiha minn Brand Zero tal-Belt għal min jgħidli x’insejħulu dak li jintrama waqt is-Seba’ Visti.”

I think he must have been referring to what, in Maltese, is called is-Sepulkru.

One of those usual women rang at once and, with lots of prompting and help from the other people in her kitchen – because kitchens are ever so political these days – triumphantly gave Holy Man Zammit his answer.

IS-SUPPOSITORJU.

      Mhux biss ghandha vot. Hija wkoll imfissda miz-zewg partiti, wiehed jaghtiha kull ma tixtieq qalbha u l-iehor iweghda l-ilma jizfen, ghax iridu jfasslu Malta fl-immagini taghha.

    She must have been set up by some kind friends. In any case it only shows the mentality of the lot of them.

    I never knew you listened in to Super One Radio.

    [Daphne – I don’t. I listen to Magic in the car and to Virgin Radio Italy at home.]

  4. Neil Dent says:

    Come to think of it….the whole party needs an enema.

    That’s the answer you get when one makes suppositions with one’s ars*hole rather than with one’s brains.

    Today I received a promotional flyer for some activity organised by Franco “Jump the Queue” Mercieca to be held in Bugibba. Does this mean that he will not (or will not be allowed) contest the Gozo district?

    PS. Cost of activity is €15 – a bit pricy I thought, given the dire straits Maltese are said to be in, particularly those that speak to PL candidates

    Reminds me of that old joke which tells the story of someone who had had suppositories prescribed to him but to no effect. When the puzzled chemist asked him how he had made use of them, he replied “Ciss! blajthom, x’ridtni naghmel bihom, indahhalhom f’s**mi jew…?”

    • cat says:

      This is also a good one. I’m not surprised if we soon find a chemist who would share a similar experience on this blog.

    This is a good one, I’m still laughing, thanks Daphne.

    Reminds me of another competition when a child was asked the name of Pinocchio’s father. And the answer was………….RICIPETTU.

    Il-bambin baghtek dal-ghodu, Daphne. X’dahqa dhaqt.

    Honestly when you think about these situations, deep down in my heart I really want to weep. As the other readers of this blog commented, people like this have a vote and they have the right to decide for our country.

  14. Rita Camilleri says:

    Thank you, Daphne, you changed my mood!

    Best one I ever heard was many years ago on Radio 101. John Bundy asked a woman to name the gifts which the three kings presented to the infant Jesus. She said ‘Deheb, incens….’ and stalled. She couldn’t remember ‘mirra’ so she pleaded with John to give her a hint. He told her that the third one is similar to birra, to which she triumphantly replied ‘Shandy’.
