Do not come or return to Barcelona this week. On August 15 it is empty, and the few of us who are present are hard-working and bored, with the task of watering the plants of absent family and friends while we hum “this is the butterfly that haunts my heart” from ONCE . We wander around defeated by the heat, dry watering cans in hand, drowsy as after watching a Getafe-Barça game.
While you boast about vacations and show yourself as an Apollo in polo or as a Titian muse, tremendous on Instagram, for others the holidays have expired like the summer raffle of the organization for the blind and the song with which they promote it. The journalist Gemma Herrero declares herself “desolate”, because she will stop playing the summer song (for many, without a doubt) on the radio, despite its barely 30 seconds.
Just 20 years ago ONCE released the first one: “You give me cream, I give you cream, squeeze the tube well and it comes out very fresh”, the song said. He announced it in June 2003 for the draw on that August 16. An ephemeris nothing outstanding on Twitter or in the press, although the great song after all and since then has served in the networks to make sarcasm of the exchanges of favors between political parties.
That’s what political relations are about today. You support me in this and I support you in that. It will be visible again today with the Table of Congress and even more so later, before a possible investiture. Will the PSOE smear Puigdemont with factor 50 and antirepressive cream? We will see. In exchange for a pot of factor 176 cream for Sánchez for four years of hydration and protection? We will see. As a climate change denier, will Abascal apply tanning oil to Feijóo so that he ends up well burned? For now, we have only seen cream on her back in showers. The Golden Smuggler forgot to spread it.
Who has become more tanned than a teacher on September 1 is María Patiño. She can be seen, “tremendous”, on Instagram. On Twitter someone is in charge of tricking the photo and exaggerating the tan on his face. Most users take the bait.
Be that as it may, the tedious ferragosto passes. The brunette, too. Four days from now, Christmas. Or when the mayor of Vigo orders it. He comes late. Last year, in August, I was already mounting Christmas lights. The investiture of president of the government is going to be long. Maybe for Christmas. We’ll see who holds the cream. As long as the time does not come, we will wait impatiently for Halloween, this time yes. Get ready for the Barbies dress up horror that awaits us.
