I suspect that while he is at the gym he eats more of that horrible ross il forn that his wife makes.

No, I hadn’t noticed. I had been looking at Joseph through We Need Change goggles, dazzled by his youthful energetic brilliance and his beautiful dashing young wife, the celebrated society beauty Lil Din.

Every morning I’d lift weights in front of a full-length poster of The Leader, for motivation, listening to The Hack speech on my ipod, and every night I’d pull out a dog-eared copy of Style from under my bed and run my eyes over the centrefold.

Then I’d fall asleep with the words of victory echoing inside my head, “Sieg… taghna…heil…ilkoll”.

In reply to Osservatore. It's called a misfit. He just shouldn't insist on wearing that cut. Qisu libbsitu l-mara ghall-festa.

In reply to P Sant.

The hair: Norman conquerer meets Franciscan monk.

On second thoughts, it’s the sewn line on the back of his scalp.

Of this, is our dear leader made.

If he is not aware of his own increasing body size, then he’s not aware of those around him. Povra Malta

Some people are simply born to look like peasants because nature, assisted by genetics, has endowed them with certain physical characteristics (not necessarily undesirable) rather than others. That such people manage, notwithstanding their background or the level of education of their parents, to escape the circle they are born in by climbing up the social ladder, is not only acceptable to most, but pretty much the norm these days. And so it should be for we cannot always have our future held ransom by our past.

However, exchanging one set of social chains for another does necessarily alter our physical composition (and when it does so, it is hardly much of an improvement). The fact simply remains that some of us would still look better in peasant’s attire (qalziet imxammar, qmis u beritta) than in an Armani suit.

This is pretty much the case of Joseph Muscat, who has climbed his fair share of ladders.

Surely you must realise that this is what is called “well-built” in English. He is so well built that he now looks fat but isn’t. It’s a modern look called “self-indulgent twits running a self-managing, modern and progressive government, that needs no steering as they’re all so busy gobbling from the trough.”
