And here we are on the Volga now

Happy New Year, guys! Well, I finally got my two pairs of Red Wings. I'm so happy!

This forum is exactly the kind of place where I don't get labeled just for being Russian.

Hi guys. Here is an interesting photo from the USSR of the 80s. Draft beer was sold in such boilers. Jeans were a luxury and a desire item

Two photos in the same place, taken 40 years apart. My Soviet childhood.

Hello to all the Flat Head fans. I finally got myself a Western shirt. I'm so happy.

Today I wore my new Iron Rangers 8111 boots for the first time. For a person in Russia right now, this is a great joy!

I understand that talking about teeth is a sign of old age and the light of approaching Valhalla. Therefore, we will hasten to drink what has not been drunk and wear what has not been worn.

Recent world events have exposed pathological aggression, greed, megalomania, and a low level of culture in people. Every little king is a Napoleon. What's stopping us from living and communicating harmoniously? Buying jeans from each other and wearing them together. Visiting friends and drinking tea. Politics is a gathering of scoundrels.

Hey guys. My German friends bought me boots! I'm so happy! I went a bit overboard and went with the timeless classics 8111 and 875 instead of Loggers. The boots will be arriving at my prison in December.

@Giles I had a funny experience at Zurich Airport. I was leaving for Moscow with my wife. She handed our international passports to the border officer; she was waved through, but the officer started saying something to me in German. The only German phrase I know is "hands up," so I couldn't figure out what he wanted from me. Passport, visa, departure—everything was in order. Eventually, I was taken to an interrogation room. There, the officer opened my passport and showed it to me: it was my domestic Russian passport, the one in Cyrillic. My wife hurriedly fished out my international passport, and we all breathed a sigh of relief and laughed.

Hi there, my friend! Here’s a bit of history about Smirnoff vodka. The original version existed before 1917; what’s available now isn't quite the same thing. There are so many different vodkas in Russia these days—some bad, some good. Personally, if I had to choose between whiskey and vodka, I’d pick vodka. For me, the perfect flavor combination is black rye bread and salted salmon or trout—all enjoyed with vodka out in the cold. As for my surname, it’s one of the most common in Russia, and its origins are linked to the Orthodox faith.

This is a billion-dollar song.

Guys, listen.

Great fade and interesting philosophy of the American flag.)

The problems of developed countries always amuse me)))

I'll say something about the car separately. Our fucking Russian cars are complete crap! The government, in collusion with the only three Russian manufacturers, inflated the prices of their crap. Foreign brands left Russia because of the war. The Chinese came with their cardboard cars. And now they cost as much as the Mercedes that left before the war. I'm an honest man. I don't know how to steal and rob. I can't buy a car like a European or an American. Fuck. It's a disgrace! Life in Russia is a beast.

Guys, can I whine a little? All prices should be based on the minimum wage. Gas is supposedly cheaper in Russia, and services are cheaper. But!!! Our shitty government manages to tax us twice and even three times. As a result, I can't replace my old car, I can't fill up my tank, I can't go on vacation like a normal person. And when I buy groceries, I always leave alcohol in the basket. So I can get drunk and forget. My life now resembles that of a modern-day Boer from South Africa.

@don_pipone At least you have good buses. You can tolerate being with that ugly woman for a while.)))))
