In China, they have a law stating that if you are a foreigner in China (me too, because the Cultural Revolution made my family not-too-welcome anymore) and if you drive a car and hit a Chinese citizen, then you are responsible for that person and that person's entire family for the rest of your life.

If you are a foreigner in China and you are hit by a Chinese citizen, the translation for what he will say is as follows:

"Dude, that looks like it hurts."

Then they will go about their business. I could be killed for writing this. <:|

"Damn feminists and religious fanatics. "

I think the law here forbids showing "genitals in motion" unless it's in a "proper" context.

To be fair, I'm sure we have plenty of similarly phrased laws in Sweden, too

I'm sure Norway is more warm than Siberia, but how much you pay there for a bottle of Absolut?

Indeed.

"proper context" always got me laughing though. the "Guys" channel ( yes, we've got one of those. it talks about cars, money, wrestling, and hot babes ) shows all sorts of "documentaries" that are quite... honest, but no genitalia. Preserving the country's purity.

Playboy channel is back, after a court ruling. But, I am not worried. the broadband membership is ever rising. some 9 months after it has been introduced, there are some 400,000 households plugged in.

just checked Vinmonopolet's (the Wine Monopoly, the state run shop where you can buy wine and liqour) website:

70cl Absolut 40%: 245 kr (about $33?). it used to cost more but they actually lowered the taxes couple of years ago.

In the SU, when the govt. raised prices to combat alcoholism ( an attempt at making a good thing, for sure ), the Russians have started to distill their own booze. too bad they can't be that use that enginuity in the general life.

33$... wow... It's 10 around here. a reasonable price, I think.

33$ for a bottle of Sweden piss?
No thank you, I better stay in Siberia.

It costs 20-30$ here.

Our domestic vodka is much better and it cost ten times less.
