Russia and the West

[Vladimir12]

You must be taking the ****. You are arguably a polyglot by Russian standards and you can barely get your message across.


The vast majority of consumer goods...
What is the brand of the car you drive?
What software platform are you running? What country does it come from?
Walk into any big market in Moscow/St Pete's and 90% of the products come from a P&G or Unilever subsidiary.
Over half of the beer sold in russia is owned by Carlsberg (danish) or Heineken (Dutch).


It's quite cute you think that backward trailer park you call home is normal.

Many times I apologized for knowledge of English, and I apologize to you!

Spanish I do not know at all.


As for cars, clothes and beer - no doubt.

But it is not necessary to climb to us with their humanitarian values!

We have our own!

Just business, nothing more.

In general, Russia is a 5-6 economy in the world if you do not know.

 

[Cruz_del_Sur]

I apologize to you!

I forgive you.

In general, Russia is a 5-6 economy in the world if you do not know.

Two things.
First, that is not true. By any acknowledged standard (IMF, World Bank, UN) you are neither 5th nor 6th. More like #10.

Second, think about this for a second: if an alien in human form was to land on planet earth and had to pick up a nationality with the opportunities and risks that that would entail, do you believe Russia would be in his top 10? Honest answer.

 

[Vladimir12]

I forgive you.

Hallelujah!

I'll carry you to the light of truth ...

Of course not.

He chooses another country, Switzerland, Sweden, Norway, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg ...

But time does not stand still.

To read and understand written Gogol need to know the history of Russia of the 19th century ...

Especially the board and Nicholay I.

Twas many moons ago but i recall him referencing to events and other writers and so on back and forth to get a picture. Very interesting. Useful? Not really.

Europe had 19th century writers referencing things to, like Darwin.

Have you read the novel Gogol "Dead Souls"?

Alexander Gorodnitsky

God forbid you be born
Under Henry the Sixth!




Neighborhoods in fire
Burning outside the window.
King of our old Harry
Moved wisely.
On fields parched
The grains will not collect -
Flying squads of mounted,
Trampling rye.
Why suffer - labor -
All slated to be scrapped.
God forbid you be born
Under Henry the Sixth!

Whose shelves on the banner?
What is negotiating?
Who will rule the world -
Lancaster or York?
What we grandees
Neither tipped King,
For us the same thing -
Bondage and loop.
Milord our fun,
So much use in that.
God forbid you be born
Under Henry the Sixth!

Overall the smell of burning,
Abandoned house.
King of our old Harry
Quite mad.
The creator does not give you
Live to older years -
Throw plow, man,
Beris a crossbow!
Arrow flies like a bird
Everywhere clank and groan ...
God forbid you be born
At Henry the Sixth!

There is a legend on the adoption of Christianity in Russia.

Christianity took from the fact that you can drink alcohol ...

"Harley, a 42-year-old Frenchman who served in his country's navy, then later in the private security industry, left his wife and two children to come fight in eastern Ukraine.

"I hate Russia," Harley said on one clear spring day at Azov's base in Yurivka, as he waited to return to the front line".

You are obvioulsy not familiar with this. I'll educate you.
The indicator you are using is measured using PPP (Purchasing Power Partity). The relevant comparison for the topic at hand is using nominal amounts, not PPP.

/But time does not stand still.

Yeah, the ruble and Russia's economy are really taking off.

Russia in the ranking of press freedom, democracy and security takes place in the second hundred, we have a totalitarian countries without a free press and a bloody dictator Putin at the helm, the place the first hundred GDP undoubted success!

Yeah, the ruble and Russia's economy are really taking off.

Due to the current sanctions in Russia there is import substitution Western goods, we will still ask what would we have agreed to the cancellation of your sanctions.

This theme was a bad idea.

The legend of world boxing Roy Jones Jr. will receive Russian citizenship.

[video]https://youtu.be/hsU99rzHRaA[/video]

Known fight Jones at the Olympics in Seoul, where corrupt judges gave the victory to the Koreans.



2 judges gave the victory to Jones (USSR, Hungary) and three for the money gave the victory to those who do not deserve it.

Nothing was investigated and proved.

This alcohol group .

He met yesterday with a girlfriend.
I am 16 years old, "Hurrah!" - The nature of gold.
They drank just 300 grams, but then it happened,
I still dance twist, and it is ****.

Chorus:
In my opinion, this woman is not my size.
In my opinion, this woman is not my size.

And last weekend, too, the event was ...
I became acquainted with one's name - forgot.
They drank all the six bottles Moet,
And she could not get under the table and pukes.

Chorus:
In my opinion, this woman is not my size.
In my opinion, this woman is not my size.

Carmen can not argue, *****, you do not shout ...
And meaningless science and doctors are silent.
Where can I find such a woman, that to me on the shoulder?
In the future I believe slightly better **********!

Chorus:
In my opinion, this woman is not my size.
In my opinion, this woman is not my size.


In reality, of course, women drink much less.

My wife does not drink and does not smoke. I'm on it, and so got married!
