  • I have stopped drinking soda and now I get my kicks from either a cup of earl grey or sometimes a glass of kvass from the Ukraine.

      Yes, Siberians don't like cold, they just know how to dress for the weather.

      • The author of that strip, a Dane I think, always portrays Finns as a tad...off.
        No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

          • Rusting Ukraine
            Do you know that Ukraine got a cruiser Ukraine ("Ukrayina")?

            It was 95% ready at the fall of USSR, and they didn't find any money to finish it in the last 25 years... That's basically sums it up about the governance of Ukraine - they robbed all the money so there was never enough to finish a 95% ready cruiser, but Great Ukraine can't just junk a cruiser, right? Especially if that cruiser is named "Ukraine". It will be a bad message to junk it. So both Ukraines (cruiser and a country) were just left to rust for all these 25 years.

            • More likely they decided it was obsolete junk not worth wasting money on.

              • And that's why they're wasting money on it's maintenance instead of just scrapping it?

                Besides, we have 3 cruisers of that class, and they're working fine. One of them is covering our air base in Syria, for example.

                • Most of the Soviet navy was junk. Fact!

                  Why waste money on worthless junk?

                    That's a good example of how corrupt the Government was after the fall of the USSR and why the people eventually had to kick them out.
                    And Why the US was happy to contribute some millions over a decade to help them out.

                    • Ambassador of USA in Ukraine has access to documents that only a couple of people in Ukraine are supposed to have access to. And you claim this regime that came to power as a result of a coup isn't your vassal?

                      Пока что мы не планируем предоставлять летальное оружие, но, честно говоря, способности Украины в производстве собственного летального оружия гораздо выше, чем год назад. Я видел анализ того, что происходит в "Укроборонпроме" – менеджмент там улучшается. Мы продолжаем заниматься этими вопросами. Если вы будете двигаться дальше - мы также будем.

                          The US shares documents with our allies all the time. That doesn't mean they're our vassal.

                          Maybe if your country didn't treat it's friends as vassals, you'd have more allies.

                            Well, officials estimated that there should be about 1500 Russian citizens in ISIS. Not surprising, really, given that we have like 10-20 million Muslims, and Caucasus isn't really a calm place by itself, even without ISIS recruiting.

                              Yeah, yeah, now your "friend" Ukraine become poorer than many African countries. Iraq is also your friend, i guess? So is Afghanistan? It's a scary prospect, to become USA friend

                              • The really interesting thing was how erdogan tried to spin it like it was a syrian who did it (fox news gulped it up like that) whereas it was a saudi arabian.

                                you know.
