Sometimes the question of "which revolves around which" is difficult to answer, because the two objects actually "orbit" around an imaginary point called the barycenter:



If two bodies are similar in mass, as in this animation, then this barycenter around which they revolve will be outside both bodies, so one can't say that one goes around the other. (But in the Sun-Earth orbital system, the barycenter is deep inside the Sun, although it's not exactly at the Sun's center -- so for all practical purposes, "the Earth goes around the Sun.")

But I doubt that "Mrs. Zhirkova" was thinking about such subtleties!

Меня смутила не Жиркова, а сам факт, что она победила в конкурсе на звание Миссис Россия. Что там за конкурентки были и что за судьи?

That's true but only for those who fly in a spaceship far away from the two revolving bodies, in other words these two bodies are revolving as a dancing pair in the interstellar "frame of reference". If you stick yourself to one of the revolving body then for your "frame of reference" another body will be revolving around yours keeping you and your "frame of reference" stable. What "frame of reference" was in the consideration is not clear from the talk. Well, you can tell that Mrs. Zhirkova was not thinking about such subtleties. Well, I agree, as well as I agree that the interviewer was not thinking about the same subtleties either. So the appropriate question got the appropriate answer.

И какой вообще смысл в этих конкурсах?

Could someone explain this? From Googling, I find that всё тлен is a sort of крылатое выражение, and it literally translates as "everything is rottenness" or "all is decay".

I would guess that the meaning is something like the Biblical "суета сует, — всё суета", but I don't entirely understand the connection with Чебурашка!

Throbert McGee,
seeing how forlorn, unhappy or downhearted Cheburashka looks and that he is walking along the Исаакиевская square (I’m sure you’ve heard of the Isaac from the bible, the guy who humbly agreed to be sacrificed by his father Abraham – such was God’s way of entertaining himself at the time) you may infer that he has just received the news and the biblical 'from the dust we came and to the dust we shall return', which is rough for всё тлен, is the only thing he finds solace in.

Не понял, над чем надо смеяться? Над тем, что гильзы после стрельб не собрали, или что трава в зелёный цвет не покрашена?

Лучшие друзья. ))
