I usually have the TV on when I compute, just to provide a little background noise. Currently, I have it tuned to the campus international channel. And it has Russian news on. In Russian. And I can't turn it off. It's weird. I don't understand a word of it, but it has me in it's iron grasp.

Do Russians put some sort of mind control in their broadcasts?

NO. Go back to sleep.

Perhaps. But if there's any propoganda, it has to be in their national anthem. Now that, is something worth dying for.

TV is intoxicating. It's like whenever my brother's home from college and yells at me for switching the channel even when it's a commercial that we've seen a billion times (warning: exaggeration). It just sucks you in.

It's not just TV, it's Russian TV.

Even more intoxicating. One of my good friends is Russian...there's something magnetic about his personality...hmmmmm. Those Russian pheromones. Hahaha.

I bet when you first heard it you were like "is that even a language? :confused: " :p

They can be oh-so erotically sexy. I had a crush on not just one, but two. :p

I knew what it was. I'm pretty good at recognizing languages. Speaking them, on the other hand, leaves something to be desired.

I only know how to say "Good-bye" and "How?" in Russian. So I'm pretty much screwed if I ever somehow get abandoned there alone.

Same here, although I am quite good at speaking them too. Its just funny though when you hear a totally unrecognisable language, and you're like "what the hell?" :confused: "

Do you not know? The Stalin-Style Russian Channels have returned!!

They keep you at the edge of your seat through massive governmental control of the lovable T.V's!!

You sure your TV ain't a telescreen?

I don't know. I'm kind of afraid.

I think my TV just called me "Comrade".

"I don't know if that's even a real language she's speaking, but she's lying! " Classic. :p

Wahhhh?

Oh, sorry, I was being critical of people for transliterating into a latin alphabet. It doesn't seem quite kosher to me.

Wahhhh?
I don't know what's going on, but I have a sudden desire to grab both of them and drag them to a public toilet.

Zhopa! Vy dalzhny umeret chtaby predat Radinu!!!! *Grabs PPSH*

Hey, whoa, whooooa, hold on a minute. Yeah, so I kinda blew it in the secret-keeping department and ruined your secret revolution. But hey, at least I'm not... um... Nazi Germany!
