en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Putin_khuylo! to the grocery store I work at. It was partially censored into птн х̆ло. I asked him what it meant and he said it was Ukrainian. Is this obscene?

"Dickhead" is a rather mild pejorative in English. Lol.
Standards have become so relaxed that I've seen fools wear t-shirts with "F**k You" emblazoned on them.
I'd just say it's tacky.
Good on him for expressing his political opinion though. I love Russian people and it's a shame they have such an oppressive government. I understand some words of Ukrainian as the language is around half mutually intelligible with Russian but learned the hard way to avoid speaking Russian to Ukrainian speakers lest I remind them of the war back home. I'll leave it to my fluently Russian boyfriend to help Ukrainian-speaking customers. I wonder how many Putin supporters there are in Canada who would find the shirt objectionable. My boyfriend thought it was funny when I told him this. His dad, who stayed in the Motherland, likes Putin.

If Putin was taking a shit, he'd be Vladimir Poopin'. If he was ripping ass, he'd be Vladimir Tootin'.

White Russia is Belarus. Ukraine is Little Russia.

White Russia is Belarus. Ukraine is Little Russia. Duh, you're right. My geography is in need of an overhaul. But still, why would the Ukrainians call themselves "Little Russians"? Or do they? Is that something invented in the West? Ask Ivanov Ivan Ivanovich. en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Little_Russia#EnglishIt's a pre-Revolutionary Russian Empire thing.

It is a great anthem. I listened to the Greek national anthem and I was very disappointed. "La Internationale" is the world worker's anthem. I'm surprised the Soviets didn't use this:
The Imperial Russian Anthem is nice too. You can definitely hear the religious tones, contrasting the Atheist state.

I like the atheist one better. Is that you over there? You can PM. What?
