A woozy man in a bar asked a curvaceous, young woman what exactly her work is in the bar. The young woman replied, “I am a substitute.” “Oh, you mean, a prostitute.” The woman replied, “No, my mother is the prostitute. I am the substitute when she is not available.”

The young woman might have thought that being a substitute is a different thing. In the absurdity of it all, she might have wanted to tell the man this – “I am a novice. Don’t expect too much.” From a different setup, say in an organization structure, this scenario also takes place. Those who were delegated substitute posts think that they are not completely accountable. This means that they cannot be blamed for the unfavorable yields because they are only substitutes. Is this so?

Spoof intended, parents of youngsters in child prostitution should be hailed for the cunning strategy they have – making their children work for them, earn lots of money, and meet big timers who are patronizers of young flesh. Real substitutes. Next time, you see these parents in a luxurious Ford beater, clad in fashion and jewelries, dining out at luxurious diners, or living in a classy suburbia. Wanna beat it?

Our governmental system laced by waste, inefficiency and red tape are filled with ‘substitutes’ that are perfunctory. They were molded to what we perceive as robots manipulated by elites greedy for power and money. They are reflections of the ‘mother’ to which they are ‘substitutes’.
I feel woozy, too, like that man, not because of alcohol but because of this momentary contemplation on social problems, which is not mine alone, but worldwide. Wonder if who among the three: Superman, Spiderman, or Batman, could save us from the menace? Batman, you are my choice.

ReplyDelete'nga pala, nao, ang cute ng pics nyo ni hubby!
ReplyDeleteLOL you think so, Major Tom? well, Superman is a good choice but i like Batman better.
ReplyDeleteRight, substitutes are either good or bad.
you are making me smile here, major tom, about the statement Mars is completely empty, believe me. sounds like coming from a Martian. (",)
ReplyDeletebut it is a sad thought, really, that the earth we live in doesnt have a substitute. it is us who are denigrating it by doing the things that cause fogs and pollution.
yes, Corsi, i agree! and also he looks more of a man than the others. spidey looks resembles a teen swinging to and fro LOL.
