Szłapka - też mi nazwisko ! Pewnie razem z Budką macie pochodzenie szlacheckie. O biedny Polski kraju, co za mendy zostały ci na scenë polityczną. Po wymordowaniu przez szwabōw i komunistyczne świnie polskiej inteligencji, zostały ci jedynie szkodniki jak szłapy i budy. Przyjrzyjcie się szkodnicy swoim nazwiskom, co jedno to bardziej idiotyczne. Z takimi nazwiskami piwinno się was sprzątnać ze sceny politycznej, jak twierdzi jedna z was komunistyczna ciotka.
