One of LiveJournal's Russian members has created a new meme. I can translate it (well, except for a couple of words that aren't in my dictionary) - the point seems to be to see who has the longest sausage-chain of usernames. What I'm curious about is if this sausage game is something that the author made up or if it's a twist on an old game. If it's an old game, how does it work?

Warning for non-Russian speakers: Entering your name into the meme's form and clicking the button might automatically update your journal with the meme. =)

(I won't mention that my first reading of the title gave me dirty thoughts. Wait, I did mention it. *giggle*)

How did you come to this conclusion?

Just try it out. If you're not logged in, this is the output you get:

Bad Unicode Input



Your browser sent some text which is not recognised as valid text in the UTF-8 encoding, as it should be. This might happen if you forced your browser to view the previous page in some other encoding rather than UTF-8. It may also indicate a bug in the browser.

--- this response is the Safari 1.0 browser response. Doesn't speak the language. Haha.
--- the Netscape response is to go to the update.bml page and ask for a password to be entered.. which it does.

[livejournal.com profile] acroyear70 is correct. But your problem is simple, your browser is not properly encoding the Cyrillics into Unicode. Nothing to do with spyware at all, just a probably with your browser.
