Thank god for Russian dash cams to bring us wonders like this

they’re saying it’s 3am and they’re so tired and lets just drive and get out of here and then it happens and they’re like ‘well that woke me up”

So I used to have a Russian friend who had a pretty thick accent and like a lot of Russians tended to eschew articles. She would say things like “Get in car.” And stuff.

Well one day this asshole who had been kind of tagging along with us asks her why she talks like that because it makes her sound dumb and I still remember her response word for word.

“Me? Dumb? Maybe in America you have to say get in THE car because you are so stupid that people might just get in random car, but in Russia we don’t need to say that. We just fucking know because we are not stupid.”

Thus is why I assume the Heavy speaks the way he does. He’s not stupid.

“The geese built Dubai and returned.”

A three-headed dragon statue in Russia. It’s representative of Zmey Gorynych, a dragon in Slavic mythology.

Attn @petermorwood…

Okay, so Russia’s kind of a big place, so I asked Google for specifics. According to this, the picture was taken by this guy at a safari park in Lipetsk Oblast.

Here’s the park’s homepage (all in Russian but Google Translate’s doing a decent job). Looks very pretty, actually

So, uh… turns out, it breathes fire.

Imagine if one year every dollar normally spent on sports was instead spent building awesome stuff like this all over the country…

By the end of that year we’d all be feeling like we lived in Narnia or something.

Seconded!
