    When you look at this from Kolyas point of view - imagine living a life alone in the woods and suddenly a random Englishman starts showing up bearing vodka and all sorts of stuff and giving you company. Life is so random sometimes and I love it.

And clearly the sentence evokes feelings! At least it did to me. Adding a rhyme to the saying is what makes it work in English. Without it, it merely sounds repetetive, which bears the characteristics of poor writing. And Bald never struck me as being particulary inarticulate.

      Don't let your way of thinking manipulate on some people here commenting your comment. It does not matter if Kolya will buy vodka cause you won't either expect him to start a business or something fancy. He has gone and is going through hard times so that's when you can drink vodka. He has no one left of his family and he might have no one to bury him in the furute.. The most important thing is when you can make someone HAPPY and if Koyla will be happy to drink a vodka and forget about all the horrible things then we're happy with him. Ofcourse he will buy food too but don' expect an elder man and ESPECIALLY in RUSSIA and extra especially in that zone to not drink alcohol! Also the comment stating that KOLYA would spend the money easily is a very dumb comment. Because spending is always easier then earning.

      good insight.

In other cultures, or especially with the people who actually really desperately need the gift, they dont partake in the refusal ritual and instead jsut accept the gift with profuse thanks. I.E> "dont look a gift horse in the mouth" as we say in the US.

      @Harold Potsdamer True but the bombs dropped there were atomic bombs, not nuclear which would have been worse. There is still and was radioactivity but not to the levels of Chernobyl. The exclusion zone they are in is from Chernobyls reactor leaking radiation, which would be much more concentrated and stronger. I'm not really sure what long term radiation does to a person, I was just kinda being a smart ass in my first comment lol.
