Много потливость с Прусиком тренируется на большом дереве в жаркое солнце. Согласовано. Оба носят трусики на голове; бюстгальтер дополнительно

Red this thread this morning while dodging bullets in the crime-infested Domodedovo airport...

Even the beer was about 1 degree too cold.

Alexey’s assessment is likely pretty accurate, I think

This thread is hilarious. Yeah, I guess the Russian males swilling vodka is a real thing. They lose about 15-20 years life expectancy. Anyone ever go down the Russian youtube vortex? All the outrageous car/truck accidents and fights? Sh*tload vodka = good times!

20 liters sounds like a lot to me. I'm looking at my 2 liter diet coke bottle and trying to imagine putting down 10 of those full of vodka. Like one a month. Phew. Gives me a hangover just thinking about it.

why life expectancy plummeted after the Russians gave up the soviet?

Coz people have lost basically everything. Jobs, medical care to name a few. The most important people lost the basis of theirs life style. People have been derailed. Yesterday we were living for a purpose, today we are facing a need to live for money. We had been taught to live for some ideals, to live for better world. Now days we feel abandoned and ruined. If there is nothing to live for there is no reason to live.

I was in Russia two months ago. Not with a tour and not speaking Russian. I wouldn't recommend it to just anyone. Russia is different. Russians don't smile for example. I looked like an idiot. Buying something as simple as a cup of coffee was an adventure. Finding my hotel was another.

But Санкт-Петербу́рг (Saint Petersburg) is an interesting place just have to be careful. The economic opportunities there seem less than what we have in nyc.

Russia is not high on the list for the "Happiness Index", but neither is U.S.

Finland is #1

People cross country ski everywhere; this keeps oxygen going towards the brain, and you feel happier.

coincidence that Finland is one of the most secular, non religious countries too?

I spend a lot of my time on the sofa, watching crap crime dramas,from which I derive most of my my insights into other cultures. Been watching "Bordertown" on Netflix of late & was very puzzled at Finland's No. 1 ranking for happiness. Beginning to wonder if my research methodology might be flawed?

If you’ve ever been in one of Finland’s blue color hoods on a Fri or Sat nite you might wonder how happy the hordes of stupefied drunken zombies are. I’ve not seen the equivalent anywhere else. It is impressive that so many remain upright.
