From Russia, With Laughs

     What follows is part of a hilarious set of 32 of the most bizarre photographs to recently come out of Russia. Naturally, this is irresistible to a guy who once belonged to a captioning community before he became a blogger.

 Moscow, Nov. 2012: The Angry Birds: The Ballet premieres at the Bolshoi, prompting a craze among seniors unseen since the leaked Yeltsin porno videos.

"I'm not going to try. You try." "I'm not going to try. Hey, let's get Misha." "Misha won't like, She hate everything." Russia's abortive Life Cereal commercial.

"Hey, comrades. Little help, please? Hum something from Bolero, would ya?"

In Russia, Hunger Games no science fiction.

 Needless to say, Moscow's first Mardi Gras was also the last on account of its racial offensiveness. And 99.7% of Russia is white.

Russia's "Shakespeare and Tennessee Williams in the Park."

 "Seriously, Babushka, just a bar or two!"

Gay beach, Kurort, Russia: "Psst. Can you believe she's wearing that?" "Yeah, she spoiled the whole ensemble with that hat."

"Hey, I remember you from Opening Night. How'd it go?" "Threesome with a pair of ballerinas. Dude, this costume gets me so much pussy. Go figure."

The BBC exposé, "Russian Bumfucks: Behind the Glamor."

In Minsk, police have had to crack down on wet tee shirt contests after 32 deaths by hypothermia.

 "Oh, to think, Vanya. One more Stalinist purge, two or three more hardships, and I could've been the Sony Girl!"

"No autographs. That was 35 years and 145 pounds ago..."

 "What? Oh, nothing. Just some old fart's bones breaking. So, are you going to be at the Human Rights Rally today?"

Oh, this Slavic version of "Truth or Dare" is going to end badly for someone.

 Momma always warned her, "If you imitate Lenin's face, it'll stay that way!" But did she listen?
