In Soviet Russia, space explores you!
The thing that strikes me the most - all those videos. In almost every one of them, the whole LACK of reaction by the Russians. I mean, I see something like that go by overhead and hear the explosion, I'm going to spaz a bit! Not these people.
Y'know, I like this guy's take on the reason for the Russian "Not a single fuck was given" attitude --
And this guy --
Heh. ^_^

Quote:I think I can explain this.
Back in the old Soviet days fucks were distributed seemingly at random intervals and most of the time months apart. You would have to stand in line for hours, sometimes days, just to receive one single fuck. After the collapse of the Soviet union, between the corrupt government, the mobsters, and basically the entire country standing on the precipice of all out civil war fucks were even more scarce than before. Counterfeit fucks were common, and even they were highly prized in certain areas, but a true fuck was something you were very unlikely to come across in everyday dealings. After nearly a century of extreme fuck scarcity, fucks have become more valuable than many luxury items (precious metals, stones, etc). They do not part with them lightly.

Quote:Everybody here is missing the point. The meteor exploded in the air because it was afraid of touching down on Russian soil. That's called an act of war, and no one wants to start that fight: not even space. Just look up Tunguska event in wikipedia. So far the score is Russians: 2, Meteors: 0
Heh. ^_^
