Huh? What's that? I'd love to see that, given how good the original was! ...which, sadly, pours over to next generations, who are being brought up in such dark times. Being a Russian brings forth an interesting culture: most of the time, you're trained not to pay any attention to others (and pretend that they aren't there if something happens), but as soon as you befriend somebody, you ought to help them out. I'm not saying that there is no genuine friendship in Russia, but the sudden shift in behavior can be shocking to foreigners.The russian version of QI
The problem is not in the upbringing but the whole mentality propagated by the media.
