How about "other (explain)" option?

Yeah, but if it received probably 30% of that 34% share, it should receive its own category!

Are you a computer or a robot? We geeks can only push those kinds of buttons.

Ukrainian geeks are not quite like American geeks, blackster!

Nope...I was going to make my name "I love a Russian Girl" but, then I decided not to..lol.

A chick who likes chicks, if you will.

She is a pink girl.

I don't think that conveys quite the same feeling as a "pink guy", if that's a phrase you adapted. A "pink girl", in my circles, means a chav.

Почему я учу русский.... Знаете ли, родившись русской да еще и в России, выбирать особо не пришлось. О чем в общем-то и не жалею.

What got me into the Russian language was watching Cosmonaut Valery Tokarev on the NASA channel.

I like watching Putin talk about God-knows-what on Вести.

I think it's a literal translation of розовая. Is that right?

I've never seen the term "chav" in my life, until today, when I saw it in two different places. Go figure. This was the second; the first was talking about how Prince Harry (aka Reason #434205 to abolish the monarchy) acted like a "chav" for his school photo...

You'd come across it, and them, a lot in southern England.

I have a friend that lives in England and he certainly uses the word 'chav' a lot, normally do describe the dregs that hang around in the town that smoke, drink, and generally get into trouble on a daily basis.

chav also has a dress code

Didn't he say he wanted to go out to space for a 'holiday'?
