This quote makes little sense when taken out of it context (or, well, even within its context I don't understand it).

Nah - it's just the shock talking. Nothing I've ever said here has been sig-worthy before.

Speaking of rural folk, isn't "yihading" something you do from the cab of a pickup truck after a few dozen Old Styles?

Guys, really, Dewrad is right. Don't turn this into a discussion thread. I've seen it happen countless times: threads like this, that are used as repositories for quotes, lists, links, etc etc eventually get bogged down with people DISCUSSING said quotes, lists, links, etc etc that it gets to the point where people can hardly find them if they search through the thread. And so they stop using it, and the thread dies.

Seriously, try to keep a minimum of discussion past this line:

No, it isn't. "IMO", you're an stupid, arrogant fuck who's just repeating well-worn bullshit in hopes of appearing intelligent.
Let's pretend I'm science for a second. Science says: you're an asshole for talking to other people like that. If you do that IRL, then I feel sorry for you, and have no respect for you.

Yes, we had similar industrialization here, they built colossal factories that didn't make much economic sense and they naturally died after 1989, a bit like having billions of dollars, Zimbabwe dollars that is. Today Russia isn't anything more than a source for raw materials, like Saudi Arabia but with nukes.
