So...how exactly DOES one distinguish a Master of the Bazaar from a barrel of sheep's urine?

I would assume with high watchful. Without, it may be hard to see the differences.

(I realize this should be answers to the provided political joke prompt, but I really wanted to add a DIFFERENT politically dangerous joke.)

One is very disturbing to unexpectedly find in your living room; the other is a barrel of urine.
(Obviously this is an answer to the OP, not the Candle question!)

You can make a profit dealing with a barrel of urine.

There's definitely something here along the lines of "One is a barrel 'o' ****, one is a Parabola something something..." but I can't quite get there I'm afraid.

Dammit. That doesn't work as well visually with the word for urine that rhymes with "hiss" starred out.

A urine barrel doesn't backstab other urine barrels.
Oh yeah I said it that's right.

For all the Masters' faults, I'd much more readily accept a drink from that source.
Then again, the sheep's urine doesn't raise your nightmares quite so high...

Three: one to light a candle (or more likely tell a neddy man to),another to put a tax on the candle and the matches, and one more to try to sell the stub for more than the candle cost.

Oh, since he used capital C on Candles, I understood it like so:
How many Masters does it take to drown a Candle?

Four for Two centuries of feuding over whose domain candles are in, one for the actual lighting of the candle- and that fifth one is a fifth one.

I will accept all social actions that do not consume free evenings- and i will provide patronage to anyone who requests it, though it will be split between all requesters.
