Спасибо, улыбнуло :)

Dear beginners! Don't use russian freakish word улыбнуло. In this case, you can turn into a stupid pussy.

[silver-sviter.livejournal.com]

Dear troll, please kcuf off.

[was.livejournal.com]

Be polite. Anagrams are offensive in any way. But contrary to this stupid pussies existance is a scientific fact.

For the record: "баян" (lit. "accordion") means "old joke" (slang).
Not sure if this one is actually ld, I've never heard it.

And yes, this polite and positive tone of comments is normal for Russian communities :>

If I was still admin in here, I'd straight away ban tetraox and probably warn OP.

[marsianka-selma.livejournal.com]

OP = original poster? Hey, why warning me, this community is pre-moderated :(
I'm really, really sorry guys, I never intended this joke to be provocative or something.

[freedomcry.livejournal.com]

I missed the moment when it became pre-moderated, sorry.

It's just that... I feel people should be honest to themselves that such things are posted mostly for the poster's own benefit, that hey-I-said-something-funny feeling.

You make me sick really, why in the world Russians need to be that aggressive? The girl said nothing rude and broke no rules, it's not even a joke - just something she noticed, or someone else did. And if you have already seen it somewhere it really mustn't be a reason to start freaking out and bullying. It only means you probably just need to consider how much time you spend at your computer.

You're an expat in Moscow, right.

I'll tell you what. I've spent many years in a certain foreign country, somewhere in central Europe. After a while, too, I felt this desire to roll my eyes and pass judgements on the local people.

Eventually, I did what was the only right thing to do in those circumstances. I GTFO'd. Entirely of my own accord.

Just sayin'.
