So, Tambakis, the board is still waiting for your explanation - how could you tell that "not an ounce of humour" got throught, huh?
Ох и не люблю же я мелких хвастунишек-брехунишек, которые вот...

He would've figured it out sooner or later... at least by quoting us...

Dunno really, just happen to find it funny. Seems to be my type of humour.


I bribed the administrator... Well, actually I didn't. What you do is mix in some self-cancelling tags and Roberto is...

As a matter of fact I knew that Jaspertje sounded patronising, and no, it doesn't sound endearing in Russian - it sounds bloody patronising too, at least that's how I perceive it....

Still, Tambakis, I'm very curious, how could you tell if the Russian version of the sitcom wasn't funny :?: :?: :?: Not meaning to be rude, but...

It works the same way as in St Petersburg... And here's how it works. There's NTV+, a Russian sat tv provider some folks subscribe to and it costs something like between $10 - $20 a month. But the...

Yep, this one's great. You know, when John Cleese was staying in Germany, someone shouted at him across the road - "Mr Cleese, don't mention the war!" :lol:[/quote]

Don't you find that one too...

Not bad, that one.


Yep. And Queen Ann is dead...

Relax, no one's expecting you to compete with Tambakis, I was only joking. (I believe you can watch Russian TV on the Net...)


Nice to meet you, Jasper. I'm...

Well, congratulations, Tambakis! You certainly have made some progress, you have! 8) A few weeks ago you were telling us you were only setting out to study Russian, and now you're watching TV in...

The Simpsons rock. I really like them. You see, I never said that I disliked all American comedies, cos there are some I do like. The Simpsons and South Park immediately spring to mind. But while I...

I wasn't talking about sitcoms dubbed into Russian. :| Actually, I watch all British/American stuff in English only and tend to find the quality gags/cheap shots ratio a lot higher for British...

Actually, I do not watch English/American/Australian/Canadian/Irish films in Russian, I watch them in English (on the dish). I wasn't discussing sitcoms dubbed into Russian, hell, I don't even watch...

Yeah, right, which makes them soooooo different from those British ones, sure... How come the British sitcoms are so funny (to me) then? I don't even live in the UK... The thing is that I do...

Which ones did you watch? My favourite ones are The Fast Show, Perfect World, Red Dwarf, Brittas Empire, Blackadder and what's the name of the one about Mandy, Martin and Mathew, a guy who had a...
