Gahmen tells childless couple to have a sensual candlelight shower
Food enthusiast Julia of the cool blog, aromacookery.com, gets a letter, a package, and an invite to some programmes from the Ministry of Community Development, Youth and Sports (MCYS), because they kena blacklisted shortlisted by the Government for being married and childless.
Hang on for the dangling carrot... if they reply by March 7th, they will get a "complimentary gift that will spice up your married life". I shudder to think what the Gahmen can give a couple that will "spice up your married life" (a battery-operated device? Pr0n? Tickets to the NDP?). Kinky.
I read on and find out that the gift is a publication that gives a married couple 364 ideas, "ranging from a sexy dinner date, to the fun outdoors or a sensual candlelight shower". Sorry, you are screwed if it is a leap year, have a do-nothing day or something.
Ok, I don't know about you, but I find it extremely unsexy to be taking a sensual candlelight shower just because my Government told me to. Maybe the MCYS should become MCYSSS, the Ministry of Community Development, Youth, Sports, and Sexy Showers. Eeew.
