Family Guy is known to be a show that makes fun of different cultures, and Russia is no exception. There have been many Russian moments in Family Guy over the years, but recently in season 21 the show released entire Russian episodes: and they all take place in my Soviet hometown Chelyabinsk! As a Russian, I had to react to it. In this video we'll talk about how accurate it is, rate all the Russian jokes and look at Meg's life in Russia. Hope you enjoy and subscribe for more! Thx xoxo

YO YO NIGGA THIS MY FIRST COMMENT YEAHHHHHHHH
ASUP NIGAAAAAAAAAA HAHAHAHAHAHAHA THIS IS MY COMMENT
Z 4 life
Family Guy is a truly equal opportunity offender. For every joke about a foreign culture, there are 10 jokes about Americans.
"Perfectly balanced, as all things shall be 👿"
I often just don't find Family Guy funny. Their jokes often feel like they're patting themselves on the back. It feels like they tried to make a something in-between Simpsons and South Park but it doesn't really work.
I hate Stewie...
And American Dad took those jokes and made a whole show outta it 😂
@@cyan_oxy6734 Family Guy is great. And American Dad. Cleveland show was alright as well.
As a person from Post USSR country myself , the only complaint i had for the episode's depiction of Russia is that Americans just assumed we live in the neighborhoods with private houses like they do , but the houses suck . While in reality , most people in Russia live in apartments .
did you not see the suburb area he was talking about at 5:48 seems pretty accurate to me
people living in apartments is really rare in Hollywood productions
I'm an American and I live in an apartment. Rent too damn high also. I wish I lived in a house so that I could build equity by paying off the mortgage, but I can't afford it right now :(
Im an American who rents my house to my girlfriend and her mom. Meanwhile I rent and live in a high rise apartment in downtown Miami so I get both of best worlds lol
As a person from former USSR myself - I would disagree with calling them "apartments", not even close, they are more like the projects in the Bronx
Недавно наткнулся на твой канал. Неожиданно приятно видеть земляка, так хорошо говорящего по-английски, да и еще и с такой эмоциональностью. Привет из Челябы!
His english is OK... lol, still can tell he's a Russian. Although I think that is meant to be part of the appeal and charm here.
P.S. are you a Кхл fan of Трактор? I do like their hockey jerseys... Although Металлург Магнитогорск is my favorite Russian team because Malkin played there.
@@ralphralpherson9441his English is perfect, your talking about his accent and the only way he can get rid of that would be to move abroad and it would still take years. And be a waste of a good accent.
"they would fuck your ass"😂
His English is good comrade
@@Will-re8bt He sounds like a Nigerian mother in London though
I'm not Russian, but I also enjoy the national anthem. There's something strong and stoic about it.
True.. I'm British.. I haven't a clue what the words are... but it still sounds potent.
the music for this anthem was written by a Ukrainian composer
@@olenakruchok8301 As far as I know, Alexander Alexandrov was born in Russia
Ну и зачем вы врете? @@olenakruchok8301
@@peterclow3829 The words are literally insane! They're unintentionally hilarious with how poorly they aged, like rotten milk, lol. Like, it's mostly singing about how the Soviet Union will literally last forever and the Union will never break apart and how awesome and glorious and wonderful the Soviet Union was during the times of Lenin and Stalin. But, I agree that the music is quite enjoyable to listen to.
As a person from Chelyabinsk, me and my friends couldn't stop laughing at this episode and we liked it a lot lol.
Yeah, I laughed almost as hard as when Dugyna lit up a cig. in her old man's car! Old man Duggy standing on the road side with hands on his head saying "Damn Dugyna! You ruined my lap top!"

As a Chicagoan, I cried at that edit where you had to clarify that Chicago's crime rate is way worse.
Prays for Chicago guys.
I thought it was more similar to Indianapolis myself or South Bend --- but everyone knows Chi town, no one likely has much first hand knowledge of IN --- tons of missing persons and unsolved murders galore! Prayers indeed for IL, too!

Truly an American. Let me tell you a secret. Praying doesn't help.
It depends on what part of Chicago you live in.
The only crime I saw in Chicago when I was there two months ago was paying $19.74 for a small sandwich, chips and drink. But I was in O'Hare Airport...😂

I was a US Army Officer in Germany in 1990 as the Russian Army was leaving the former East Germany. I crossed into East Germany quite often to see the Russians leaving and met a Russian Lieutenant who cam from Chelyabinsk. I'll never forget those times! I hope that he is doing well today!
I was born in Munich in 86 to two American Army Officers (one NCO). My Dad was in MI and was on the other side of wall before and after it fell. I wonder if you knew each other.
Word on the street is your friend the Russian Army Lt got a red tranquilizer dart to the neck and locked up in Siberia for associating with a US Army Lt.

I ended up with a belt that a Russian Soldier sold in 1990 because they weren’t paying them and he didn’t have money to get home
A very disgusting and disgusting series. Especially these ridicule about our astronautics and where about graves.
15:52 "Asbestos Western" is another joke that works on multiple levels. There's a town (and a former gulag) nearby Chelyabinsk (well, just about 300km away), which is called Asbest (famous for largest asbestos mine in the world).
that's half a russia away bro.
Its so nice of Roman to give a shoutout to Family Guy, that unknown franchise from 1999

Dude, can I watch one video where you aren't in the top comments? Yeah, I've seen you on Bread Boys' channel
@@shelbyspeaks3287 Shelby spoke
When the meteorite fell in Chelyabinsk back in 2013, Russians were joking that a man in Chelyabinsk promised his girl to bring a star down from the sky for her, and he actually kept his word.
That's gold.
I’m from Cheliabinsk and the meteorite fell right on my 8th birthday, and to this day all of my relatives still joke about it being a gift from the aliens lol
Great video...ya coulda "punched it up" at the end with the sound of glass breaking and a red dart flying past you and sticking in the wall behind you. 😆

As a Bavarian I can tell you that almost no American show should be taken seriously or you'll be offended all the time
What you being Bavarian has to do with that, just wondering.
@@Martsadog American stereotypes of Germans are often stereotypes of lederhosen-sporting Bavarians. So often that a sensitive but proud Bavarian's head would explode
@@kphaxx wait, they don't wear lederhosen and take mandatory yodeling classes? :(
As a Hessian, I can confirm that and can tell you that I don't only feel offended by Americans thinking we all wear Lederhosen and eat Bretzeln, but also by Bavaria and bavarian culture as a whole.

Эпизод действительно забавный ). Своим детям я бы его показал, обязательно!
I can say as a Canadian, Canadians love nothing more than when an American TV/show makes fun of Canada, especially when they did their research
From an American I can say we craft our jokes out of sheer love. Just friendly banter!
Apologize yourself!
The south park representation is Canada is hilarious lmao. The only thing I hate about American shows making fun of some countries are rather lazy and uncreative a lot of times. For example, the jokes they usually use about my country (you can guess it pretty easily) is that we are poor or about tech support scammers or about curry.
It's one of the few times we actually acknowledge your existence.
The stereotypes for both countries are fun. My son's in-laws are Hawaiian and when they visited my son and their daughter in Michigan, the first thing they wanted to do was visit Horseshoe Falls, Niagara Falls, Canada. When the friendly Canadian border guard said "Welcome to Canada, eh!", it made their trip.
Family Guy writers probably watched your content and thought "Hey lets make an episode about the hometown of that friendly Russian neighbour guy!" And here we are, we got this gold content.
That thought genuinely actually crossed my mind. He is one of the most popular russian youtubers so it would make sense!
Yes they are totally subscribers.
Let’s make it happen
Nah, Cheblyansk is world famous for being one of the most polluted areas, with high amount of poverty.. And it has proper winters too, which tends to make buildings dilapidated faster if not properly built or maintained. At least the buildings are reinforced concrete so they don't fall down. no matter how many decades you do NOTHING to fix them.
If those writers really followed Roman, I feel like they'd make at least some small reference to him... but then again, maybe they couldn't figure out something, that wouldn't have been too much obvious and on the nose.
I'm Italian and the amount of times Family Guy did jokes about Italians is great, it's funny.
Good luck to you man, like your content!
as an Italian that also lived in France, yes i confirm that family guy roast everyone without preferences
Maaa, I’m sorry maaaa, maaaaa!

There is a fun fact that in Poland we have one factory city but in fact it's a district of Kraków that was build in USSR times, it's called Nowa Huta in literal translation it's "New Ironworks" and the design of this city was inspired by Chelyabinsk.
Here in Hungary all of our cities are factory cities, built by the USSR

In a previous episode, Meg was killed and replaced with a Soviet spy, so maybe her speaking Russian in the show is a rare form of continuity the show has
yep, was about to comment this.
Mila Kunis rocks her native Russian!
@@SeekerSmithGiven the fact that she is both from western Ukraine and jewish, I doubt that her mother tongue is russian. More likely ukrainian and yiddisg, being russian his third. I don't know accurately, but that's the common case with people from there, so that's my guess.
85% of the leadership of the Cheka were Jewish too. It was a Jewish leader responsible for the Holodomor, which ended 10,000,000 Ukrainians between 1930 and 1933.

The Russian/Soviet anthems are pretty banger as far as anthems go. Super catchy, and the lyrics are so optomistic. If only we had a world that lived up to such an anthem
Idk why but these two anthems are kinda nostalgic to me. I'm 13 and I'm the Czech republic. It doesn't make sense.
National socialist anthem is better
Even things you dislike can have good things. Nazi were shit but they had some schnazzy uniforms.
In school some collegues made a whole presentation about it, and our class debated on how good it was. Let's be honest, it's a goated hymn
its the same anthem as that of the USSR but with new lyrics.. the original was the anthem of the bolshevics
ruclips.net/video/t3pNPFp21xQ/видео.html
That was two of the best episodes of Family Guy. BTW the intro Meg was doing was Beauty And The Beast, not Anastasia. Thank you and keep up the good work.
17:18 "The idea of a Russian guy defrauding a privileged American girl to get a green card and move there is pretty funny to me". Dude, ... you had me laughing there harder than that whole Family Guy episode. 🤣🤣🤣
Bonus points: referring to a low middle class girl from Rhode Island as "privileged", HA HA HA
Bro compared to Eastern Europe she might as well be from Beverly Hills
The fact that the makers of Family Guy can make absolutely degrading jokes about the United States and not have to worry about being pursued by the government unlike in Russia speaks volumes
We may not always have fresh jokes, but that's because we can kill our jokes without ever needing a helmet.
😂😂😂 right 😂😂😂😂😂 ruclips.net/video/O_2-TnjEdZg/видео.html
Give credit to Americans, not to abstractions such as governments or nations.
until you say something about the jews
Give it time. If this country falls further and further into christo-fascistlm then it won't take long.
We also have "russian reversal" jokes.
Like: "In America, you can always find a party. In Russia Party always finds you!"
Or: "In America, you can break a law. In Russia law breaks you!"
Was surprised he didn't include the old Family Guy gag with the English/Russian GPS:
"At fork in road, turn left. In Soviet Russia, road forks you."
In America you can break the law, because there's no more room thanks to the highest incarceration rate in the world.
In capitalist america, the bank robs you! (Thats the only one I knew, pretty accurate though)
Those are Yakov Smirnoff jokes.
Oh, guy, I heard at least 1000 of this.
They should make a Russian Family Guy spinoff and collab with Roman. He can be the voice of a character or maybe even be a cameo.
There already is a Russian version of family guy, a single movie called "Love & Doves." It features a Russian countryside family of a father, mother, grandparents, 3 daughters, and a grown-up son. The father was obsessed with bird-watching, and at some point he decided to go on vacation to Ukraine or Sochi or something, where he met this other woman and cheated with her. The funniest scenes in the movie was the reaction when the wife and the other woman met and started having a big fight.
The song is amazing mockup of the "Bonjour" song from Beaty and the beast 😂
I grew up on the south side of Chicago near the huge factory district of Bedford Park in the 1970s. As soon as I saw the street of Chelyabinsk shown in the cartoon, I told my wife "That looks like where I grew up, why are they embarrassed?" I had no idea that the Russians compared Chelyabinsk with Chicago like that. The comparison is amazingly accurate!
Chelyabinsk was called as Ural Chicago because of massive "American" city's growth in the early 20 century. It had been inceased from 30k residents to 200k in 20 years.
From Chelyabinsk with love =)

The show is named "The Griffins" in Czech Republic, too. Maybe the general idea you mentioned was used in more post-Soviet countries as well.
"family guy" is idiomatic in American English and almost certainly doesn't have a good translation in most languages.

I'm from Russia, and many cities here look like this, not just Chelyabinsk. If you think there are no such places in Moscow, you're very much mistaken. I have old videos of my neighborhood in Moscow in the nineties and they are not much different from 2023, except that there used to be more trees and greenery.
I visited St Petersburg in '92. It was quite an eyeopener, i'm Finnish so we knew something about the reality in Russia but it was way worse than i imagined. Everything was dirty and it felt quite unsafe. Someone was shot under our 2nd floor hotel window.... There was a hole in one of the main bridges where you could see the river below. It was the size of a basketball.. And food was just awful.
@@squidcaps4308 the 90s in Russia were definitely far more worse and dangerous than it is today. The criminal rate skyrocketed after the downfall of Soviet Union, it was pretty unsafe allmost everywhere as many criminal gangs and mafias started to rule the streets. Even my family had to deal with bandits and criminals back then.
I'm from Alabama and we have the same problem. There is a distinct line between the rich and poor just like Russia. The only difference is that is 90% humidity and 80°-90° degrees outside and tornados then the very next day it could be 50°-40°,Like I'm under severe thunderstorm warning right now as I'm typing this reply and my roof is leaking. Lol
I remember when I was in Moscow we found a great place with cheap drinks that didn't mind letting a bunch of Americans sit at a table for 5 hours. It sounded so great on paper (before smartphones) and it was a lovely establishment. The walk from the metro to the pub was where people would follow us to figure out how muggable we were. Cops too.
German here: My friend I just want to tell you that I am quite emotional about this whole situation because everybody seems to just "hate" the whole of russia which is not fair! I would love to once again visit the beautiful Russia and make new russian friends. This situation is so fucked up and I hate it. Much love from me to you my friend. Stay safe!
First time I ever heard the Russian Anthem was while watching The Hunt for Red October (really awesome film that was probably banned in Russia because it was about a Russian submarine captain and his officers who attempt to defect to America with the latest Russian first strike nuclear sub). At one point, they all started singing, and their singing slowly melded into a professional men's choir singing 4 part a Capela. I have no idea what the words say, but the music really is top tier.
The movie is based off the 1975 mutiny aboard the Soviet destroyer Storozhevoy... So probably...
Great video.
I was annoyed the names on the gravestones were Ivan Ivanovich and Ivana Ivanovich, when it should be Ivana Ivanovna.
Strange, as you say everything else was pretty accurate.
There's at least two episodes making fun of Ireland, one of them showing the plane landing on millions of bottles of whiskey. It was discussed on a tv talk show and everybody laughed and was delighted. It's a matter of attitude in life.

I think the part about the priest declaring Ukraine part of Russia is a take on the stance of the Orthodox Church, for example patriarch Kirill of Moscow is very pro-war, which is an odd position for a religious person to take.
The russian orthodox church is literally the FSB
Religion has been used plenty of times to justify violence.
Not really, whenever Billy Graham went to Washington to pray with the President you knew we are about to f**k someone up.
Theres a huge split going on atm in the orthodox church, those in ukraine have mostly declared independence from russia.
@@Ukraineaissance2014 Orthodox church has no pope, its state oriented and independent on each other. So this is another step from russian colonial era.
Russian anthem does sound pretty damn majestic. In the film Hunt For Red October, the submarine crew is singing it, and they sounded great.
Fun factoids: that film came on UK TV about a year ago, after Feb 22, and I started watching it largely because of Sean Connery's fantastically funny Glaswegian Latvian accent. But right at the start of the film he (captain of the sub) has to murder the KGB officer in his cabin... and (as you may remember) the KGB officer is called ... "PUTIN"! A few minutes later, Sean is talking to the other officers in the mess and says these words: "You'd better follow my plansh [sic - Connery] ... if you don't want to end up like Putin!". That was amazing enough.
Anyway it then came on UK TV AGAIN, about 2 months ago, and for that moment in the mess alone I started watching ... but to my amazement, when it got to the scene in the mess they actually CUT that line "If you don't want to end up like Putin". After seeing this YT vid I assume that must be because the TV channel managers were afraid of FSB squads arriving and firing darts at their necks.
Yes! That Red October scene is what first impressed me with the majesty of the Russian anthem. Just wish Russia lived up to its greatness.
No shame for liking the anthem, it's a pretty damn good one.

"meg turned disney"
That's because disney owns family guy now
Well yeah - Disney does own it now, but original songs were a staple of the show for a long-ass time before that. It just shows that Roman wasn't very familiar with Family Guy before, because they've written, produced and animated - and still continue to - various musical numbers all the time.
It's basically the case with anything Seth MacFarlane does; whether it's Family Guy, American Dad, the Cleveland Show etc.

Just in case for those not in the know: Russian is Mila's native language, she speaks it perfectly IRL (albeit with a typical Southern Russian/Ukrainian accent), and it certainly takes her artistic chops to sound like a stereotypical American when speaking Russian.
Her Russian is good, but far from perfect. The way she speaks here is exactly the way I heard her speak in real life.

I think the Russian anthem is by far the best national anthem out of all the countries. When they play it in the Red October movie it's kick ass.
I prefer the French one, but yes both are pretty hard hitting. A shame that Russia went back to using the same anthem as the Soviet one with different lyrics though. But then again, that's basically modern Russia overall.
I’m glad you understood and didn’t get pissed over jokes
8:45 in the media those huge towers are always shown as some illustration of polluting but those towers are cooling towers, not some poisoning gases rising from them, but pure water steam.
They are next to power plants and they condense the steam in them to regain water for the plant. So If you see these kind of huge towers next to a power plant that's a good sign because that means they recycle the water from the used steam and the plant uses less water.
So those huge tower actually makes the power plant more enviroment friendly.
It would be even more efficient if they used district heating to cool the water.
@@CTimmerman they do in Russia. Electric plants (heat-electric centrals) dump only excessive heat there. It always baffled me why central heating connected to powerplants is not so common in other places, where the energy is more expensive, including China.
Even from an AnCap perspective, you can sell electricity AND heat to the customers + your grid won't be destroyed by the demand in case of an extreme cold. Heating pipes won't burst in flames no matter how much residential demand is there, unlike the electrical grid. And you can bill accordingly.

The airport attendant's haircut!... I just watched a video about "Gopnik" subculture. 😀😀
Not gonna lie when they brought up Chelyabink I was like "Hey! That's where Roman is from!"
Chelyabinsk was called as Ural Chicago because of massive "American" city's growth in the early 20 century. It had been inceased from 30k residents to 200k in 20 years.
From Chelyabinsk with love =)
When he said: "Your city smells like sh...t"
That would mean it's also the New York of Ural.
Chicaginsk
Hi!! First, cheers from Brazil! Now let me tell you: my husband was watching your video and I was thinking all the time: "OMG, this guy looks like Bloody Heels singer" - one of my favorite bands. Do you know them? BTW, your video was soooo cool!! 😀
I loved thatyou admitted what a lot of streamers just smear away. You do this video for income. Nice and straightforward.
Meg was kidnapped and replaced with a Russian spy earlier on in the series. Never thought they'd ever reference that quick joke.
I appreciate this kind of reaction content where you actually provide cultural context. Nice surprise!
Great vid!
I didn't know Kyle Myers started a new channel. Cool!
Imagine getting offended by family guy . Seth and the other writers take far more jabs at the US than any other culture . But they do go after everyone , which is great . Honestly I’d say it’s an honor to get a mention in family guy or south park
I mean, it's what they do. It's still funny though. It's kinda like how old school cartoons would do it. During WW2, Universal studios, Disney, Warner bros and others did it to the Germans, Italians, Japanese and others.
🚜💙💛
As a finnish person, I must agree that it should be taken as honor to be included in these shows, and my country was literally nuked in South Park. That said, I have my minor problems with our depiction in the episode. Mainly that the country's architecture (can be seen from window when Randy calls to Finland) was more central european looking. Also finnish english-accent is usually depicted as either german-like or as russian-like (german-like in this episode) whereas finns speak with more destinct accent since finnish isn't indo-european language. Also, what native english speakers would perhaps call finglish, finns themselves call 'rally english' (named in honour of finnish WRC rally drivers, look up 'up to the ass of Timo' from RUclips for accent reference). But the nuking part was hilarious.
Lol yeah the place I'm moving never gets a nod so it's definitely cool to see them mention other places haha
Seth MacFarlane actually hasn't written for family guy for over a decade. He still does the voices though obviously.
I'm as American as they come, apple pie, baseball, 4th of July, and all that shit but the Russian National Anthem is a beautiful piece of music, there's no doubt about that. Great video, Roman, keep 'em comming.
yea it is the best national anthem in the world
appart from the apple pie and baseball didnt orginate in America ^^ cant remember if 4th of July did xD
@1resser, Apple pie is English. Baseball, on the other hand, created in America.
Hey man love this video, first I've seen, I specifically like how informative it is abt living in Russia
Question: How dangerous is it for you making these videos??
Í loved your video man!
You forgot about the plutonium tea Russia jokes
Yeah that’s my go to for sure
Or a wonderful night of Russian roulette 🫡
Jokes on you... That was Polonium which is actually more radioactive than Plutonium
@@robh_tex I've heard Babuska-211 even tops polonium 🍵
Russian Solder. Hi Mom. I'm being sent to Donbas. If I've not called in the next 72 hours. Enjoy your fur coat..
Russian Mom. FUR COAT. FUR COAT. FUR COAT. FUR COAT. FUR................
Man, you are playing a very important role in these unfortunate times. Divisions, hate and polarization are sky high, we need bridges and connections to the ground.
You did it in a very laid back way with great humor. That "I meeeeeeeaaaaan" cracked me up.
Главное, максимально стараясь быть не Z, не стать при этом хейтером собственной страны. Ибо это уже грустно. А так мы тоже всегда смеемся на своей страной, в т.ч. на телепередачах, и шутки куда более жесткие. Не понимаю, чего правительство взъелось на эти эпизоды сатирического мультсериала... )

Что общего у русских с Западом, так это то, что нас обоих заменяют собственные правительства. На западе у них открыты границы для африканцев и арабов. В России тебя заменяют чуркой.
I spent a month last november in RF and it's amazing I went from end to end and it's my favorite place ive ever been.
That was really fun!
It was good to see you honestly just enjoying it. Not a lot of stress or anything, just enjoying the satirical part of it.
hey Roman ! on a serious note .....who else did put Cheliabinsk on the map ? and yes the producers of these episodes did very likely study your content . your fan base is bigger than you think man !
I don't doubt that the FG writers watch Roman's vids. Especially to find some humour in this terrible situation.
However, the falling star literally put Chelyabinsk on people's maps internationally. Especially as at the time, russia was opening up more, and the videos of the event were so widespread, yet no one perished.
My guy the Tractor Factory! Also from Chelyabinsk
Well there was a meteorite in 2013 that officially put Chelyabinsk on the map. Not trying to diminish Roman's work here but he only started talking about his city in like 2017.
Chelyabinsk was a "Secret City" during the Soviet days due to its economy revolving around making military weapons and nukes. It wasn't meant to be known by the general Western public and it fairly succeeded in that regard...
@@theotherohlourdespadua1131 Yep! But not just one city, there were many other cities in the Chelyabinsk region and the Soviet Union where people were tracked and it wasn't easy to enter or leave them.
Love your comments. It shows grandezza if someone can laugh to jokes on the own kin. Many years ago there was a sequel of South Park on Germans as the people with the least humour. I was rolling on the floor. They did obviously some background research too, and they really hit the point.
That was interesting thank you for your time
You are absolutely allowed to like the Russian anthem. It is a superb piece of music and transcends politics simply by being epic.
Indeed! I don't know if that song will outlive the current political system of Russia, but if it does, I wouldn't be entirely surprised! It's catchy enough to be used by both the USSR and modern-day Russia!
you're missing the point. it was a remark on how much current russian government and personally putin made everything about them. this is why roman had to say this
@@leonbishop7404 I don't see how I'm missing the point though. I was literally saying that politics should not pervert his feelings towards the song, that would include what anyone else uses the song for. I'm a patriotic American and despise anything remotely "communist" but I still listen to that anthem on occasion simply because its brilliant and I find it interesting, its irrelevant whether or not Putin happens to agree.
It is Soviet anthem rebranded. When Putin came to power he brought it back. Russian anthem was different.
I dislike the Russian national anthem. It's not just because it's a Commie anthem with new lyrics but it's loud and brash and hurts my ears...
That was funny man, There's nothing wrong in being proud to be Russian Roman. You can be a proud Russian and still disagree with what Putin and the Z nut jobs are doing. All the best mate !👍
Why is anyone "proud" to live anywhere?
We have no choice where we pop out of the womb.
Luck of the draw...
@@TheBandit7613 It’s about just loving where you come from. Simple as.
@@TheBandit7613 Yeah, I also never understood patriotism, but maybe that's because the last time patriotism was the main thing in my country, we were nazis, made a genocide and invaded all of Europe. So I'm biased against it.
@@ProfessorShnacktime But what if where you come from is a draconian backwards sh!thole like the United Federation of Fascists?
@@ProfessorShnacktime Proud of what? Give me three things a Russian should be proud of that they can't get better elsewhere.
My Gods man youre funny as fuck XD first video ive seen from you but im already subscribed. I like how you actually let a bit of the video play out then talk instead of alot of other reaction people that pause it every 2 seconds to talk about nothing. Good shit man :D
EDIT: I must be a fossil... i legit dont know what the term a "Z" means D:
That episode was pretty interesting
It's interesting when you say "I don't feel it", when referring to smell. My wife is Russian and she says the same thing. It must be something about how smell translates from Russian to English.
Yeah! We "feel" the smell.
As a Russian with C1 English, I haven't even noticed that I've been saying "I feel" referring to smells all the time.. Makes sense since in Russian we say "to feel smell" like "I feel the smell of sweat", not "I smell sweat", etc.
Yeah, to feel and to smell (to smell a smell) is literally the same word in Russian. There is a distinct verb for to smell, but what it means is to breathe the air near something on purpose of smelling the smell of it (doesn't translate too well to english). I think, it comes from how we learn non native languages, we essentially start from first thinking of what we want to say in our native language, then translate it to English and only then say it. Takes some practice to start forming ideas right away in English. I don't have this problem though, probably because I was a bit shy to speak a language I barely knew and because of it had predominantly listening and reading practice with almost no speaking or writing practice when I was starting to learn english
@@__username1I think the word you are looking for is “sniff.”
@@ChronicUnderachiever420 Yep, that's the word, thanks
I don’t think anyone can criticise you for loving the most patriotic sounding anthem of all time.
The French one is probably best, everyone dies heroically in it.
Italy's is a great tune.
The UK (mine) is a mediocre dirge, but the original version has a verse where you're encouraged to suppress the Scots (which we secretly do to try to make them leave).
Damn right, it's a great song. So is this one: ruclips.net/video/lu8m5FA2nL8/видео.html
@@pd4165 Fun fact: Russian Empire shared same melody as UK for their anthem The Prayer of Russians
More: about 70% of Soviet and pre-soviet era patriotic songs are describing heroical sacrifices.
It makes it easier to critizice when you think about all the dead civilians and countless neighborhoods the Russians have destroyed. Not to mention starving like..a fucking bunch of people in wwii
@@pd4165 Meanwhile Austria: "LAND OF MOUNTAINS LAND AT THE RIVER"
This strange feeling when you hear Chelyabinsk being pronounced without accent in the middle of speech on English
