It featured a group of public officials, better known as aspones (Advisors of No Crap), who work at FMDO (Ministerial Binder of Mandatory Documents), a public office where you have nothing to do. Thus, they create the FMDO (Speaking Bad Of Others), which makes them ridicule among themselves and those who go there.
