hating on the "newbies"

[Susita 175]

So why? Well, perhaps to agree with you, that the regional boards on VJ are generally very supportive during our long visa waits.

I agree with Ron... my fellow Peruvian members were the best during the whole process. I actually was lucky enough to meet one of them, she had the same interview date as my husband And another one lives iin the same town as I do and comes in my work all the time to get things printed.

Meeting connections like this is invaluable... the advice, support, etc. Even just to have someone to b*tch to when you've had it up to here with USCIS. It also kills a lot of time that you could be spending doing other things like cleaning your house or weeding your flowerbeds LOL

OT is just complete randomness and I love it there.

"I have not yet begun to defile myself."

Are you sure I think you HAVE begun to defile yourself we just dont like to point it out.

Aha, I made a slight beginner's mistake -- forgot that certain keywords may attract attention from cross-posters who don't normally frequent the Russia forum. I enjoy being somewhat provocative, but I don't have any desire to go on an offensive against newbie-bashers! My intent was mostly to say, what a welcoming forum this one is.

Maybe I should lurk for awhile, then maybe start a nice safe thread!

Safe subjects - Pie, Guns, Slims Awesome sexiness!!!!

Your first order of business would be to post funny commie pics.

Funniest Commie Pic - The Peculiarities of the National Fishing. That one kills me, I watch it about once a month. Drives the wife crazy, but then she watches Moscow does not believe in Tears every time it is on. Totally not funny Commie Pic

Oh and BTW Slim you're invited to join our protelieariat (or however the heck you spell it). Your first order of business would be to post funny commie pics.

Thanks for the invitation. I've long considered myself a proletariat, even when I was serving in the military. That's the ultimate proletariat right there, but that's another story for another day.

I'm fresh out of commie pics though. I did see a neat Jesus-related bumper sticker today - "who would Jesus bomb?" What's really interesting about that is the Jehovah's Witnesses who've been stopping by have been telling me that someday soon Jesus will return as commander of the armies of heaven and there'll be this great battle between them and the devil's forces here on earth. All for possession of earth so we can establish an everlasting paradise. I bet not too many Bible thumpers picture Jesus sporting Kevlar and brandishing an AK-47. Truth be told, I was hooked after that!

I'm sticking to my story. As long as I stick to it, I'll be allright.

By George I think he's got it!

I have been to Russia roughly 30 times in the past five years.

Now I see why you're not worried about $67.

I work in printing, and very often we have the religious extremists come in with their propaganda about how everyone's going to die but them, Obama is the devil, etc etc. They don't give me such a hard time because I just yes them to death, but my friend who works with me is tattooed and peirced all over so they have a field day with her. Extreme Jehovah's Witnesses and Born Again Christians love attacking my poor friend with their craziness.

Religious zealots always make me chuckle a little.

No religion is the correct religion all you can have is faith but I think its funny to argue the inconsistencies in religious beliefs( like the jehovah's witnesses who say that 250,000 of their people are guaranteed to get into heaven even though they have 10,000,000 members so I always ask whos not gettin in)

As Chris Rock said in Dogma "God hates the sh*t that gets carried out in his name"

All I know is that I have faith and what I believe (besides what my wife tells me to believe) is my business alone.

russian women. am i wrong? it seems that men can look however they want, but women have to stay slim, trim, and fully dressed and made up or else they're american. however, i did see a nice, large russian couple at the pool yesterday, so maybe if their both overweight, it's ok.

all jokes aside, my husband is way more vain than me. he's constantly checking his hair in anything reflective and complains about how fat he is when he weighs 166 at 6'1".

Is that 166 lbs or 166 kg? Just curious 166 lbs @ 6'1" is not bad but 166 kg @ 6'1" might be a little hefty.
