- andrewcsayer, on 01/22/2008, -3/+31You missed the massive spambot network they've created
- TheSkunkMonkey, on 01/22/2008, -6/+34In Soviet Russia, Yakov Smirnoff is not funny.
- dsmx, on 01/22/2008, -3/+24Embiggen is a perfectly cromulent word to use in this situation.
- ChrisViz, on 01/22/2008, -4/+20Hey, I remember a really Super-Sized and insane project. I think it was called Star Wars.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strategic_Defense_Ini ... - yomamaisfat, on 01/22/2008, -6/+17Yakov Smirnoff's career is alive and well on Digg as evident by all the comments any time a story involves Russia.
- SRSco, on 01/22/2008, -7/+16...like EVERYWHERE. Not just on this submission but EVERYWHERE. They were never funny.
- joegibes, on 01/22/2008, -3/+11In Soviet Russia, jokes are fed up with you!
- doyoulikeworms, on 01/22/2008, -0/+8Man, the culture of the Soviet Union is so fascinating.
- FluffyWolf, on 01/22/2008, -3/+10Yes, in Soviet Russia, they didn't make jokes.
- Chirp08, on 01/22/2008, -0/+7did you read the descriptions for any of those things? they were all designed to be "useful, intelligent, and inspiring" you *****
- CaptainChad, on 01/22/2008, -2/+8Why would it be insane to have a working missile defense system?
- borez, on 01/22/2008, -2/+8The 'Caspian Sea Monster ' was actually an Ekranoplan.
- Grolsch, on 01/22/2008, -2/+8Thats how I always felt but I could never come up with a quote like this. Dugg.
- vkorobkax, on 01/22/2008, -0/+5Buried for use of awful internet translator.
- rishubhav, on 01/22/2008, -6/+11Its carried over into politics too - Putin is Bush just scaled up
- inactive, on 01/22/2008, -3/+8in Soviet Russia, soviet russia jokes ***** you.
- rarson, on 01/22/2008, -1/+6I was sort of expecting to see the Typhoon class submarines on the list. These monsters use two hulls connected side-by-side. They're huge, for a submarine. Actually, they're the largest ever built.

I, для одного, приветствую наши новые советские оригиналы.
Forgive my babelfish. - ZzmeeY, on 01/22/2008, -0/+4All of the translators is miserable. I'm from Russia, and I don't understand what do you mean :)
Bury the translators - Wartz, on 01/22/2008, -0/+4um, we had to start somewhere right? All great ideas start out sounding completely *****. If you told anyone in 1850 that there was going to be a worldwide communications network in 150 years, they would have thown you in an institution.
- Falldog, on 01/22/2008, -1/+5They should've mentioned the he Moscow Canal along side the Baltic White.
- mrelusive, on 01/22/2008, -0/+3MOSKAU MOSKAU!
- OriginalLucid1, on 01/22/2008, -0/+3Looks like people are happy to digg you down, but they don't want to explain why you are wrong. Because they can"t. Capitalism FTW baby!
- Abomonog, on 01/22/2008, -0/+3Well if you hadn't said, "tried to rebuild it" and instead said, "proceeded to rape the country for profits.", people might have caught on.
- BohicaTwentyTwo, on 01/22/2008, -0/+2Speaking of insane communist leaders, contrary to popular belief, the worlds largest flagpole is NOT at the local Chevy dealership off the Interstate.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kijong-dong - nigh7dagger, on 01/22/2008, -4/+6In Soviet Russia, jokes don't make you?
- DeFex, on 01/22/2008, -0/+2they are. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5cuyHLNNJWo
nice family vehicle size. - Monstradamus, on 01/22/2008, -1/+3I am guessing that you used babel-fish... because your russian roughly translates to : "sentences[i.e.: I sentence you to death; NOT: this is a long sentence] understand, what/that we"
- MacSuxWindozSux, on 01/22/2008, -0/+2That man makes a delicious beverage.
- BabyWookie, on 01/23/2008, -0/+2Where are the world's largest submarine, the Typhoon class, which has a gym and a swimming pool inside?
Where's the world's largest combat air-craft, the Tu-160 "Blackjack" super-sonic bomber?
Where's the world's largest ICBM, the SS-18 "Satan", that can actually carry a Tsar Bomba yield weapon to the US in 30 minutes? - BabyWookie, on 01/23/2008, -0/+2What do you think that most of the world's population was for centuries? It's true that Russia was about 100 years late,when it came to industrialization, but it's not such a huge lag.
- Kyan, on 01/22/2008, -0/+2Umm, I think he means it's ironic that a country ostensibly based on "communism", resorted to competition with a capitalist West to prove it was better. And failed.
- BabyWookie, on 01/23/2008, -0/+2Dostoevsky, Tolstoy, Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninoff, Mendeleev, Korolyov, Sikorsky, Tsiolkovsky and countless other Russian writers, composers, artists and scientists would argue that point.
- inactive, on 01/23/2008, -0/+2Precisely.
- Grolsch, on 01/22/2008, -2/+4I dont see what you did there.... I can read russian but your sentence doesnt make sense. You should just stick with english....
приговоров понимаем, что вы
Yeah....wtf? - Chirp08, on 01/22/2008, -0/+1with all that vodka who would know the difference?
- DeFex, on 01/22/2008, -0/+1probably exactly the same thing they said about north america when they were building the tallest buildings.
- bosssmiley, on 01/22/2008, -1/+2"In Soviet Russia... беседа луны говорит вас"
Crazy Soviet macroengineering FTL! "How do I kills Aral Sea?" - koolkeith987, on 01/23/2008, -0/+1Those have bad ju ju written all over them: Refer to "Only in Russia will you find Images like these"
- senorcool, on 01/22/2008, -1/+2ha ha, i read half of your comment and started moving to the bury button, then quickly changed my mind.

- 99Casimir, on 01/22/2008, -0/+1I would love to go on the Yamal because it goes to the North Pole.
http://www.quarkexpeditions.com/arctic/north-pole/ ... - OwdenBowden, on 01/22/2008, -0/+1Basil Exposition: Austin, the Cold War is over!
Austin Powers: Finally those capitalist pigs will pay for their crimes, eh? Eh comrades? Eh?
Basil Exposition: Austin... we won.
Austin Powers: Oh, smashing, groovy, yay capitalism! - inactive, on 01/22/2008, -0/+1i actually thought he invented it
