A guy started at work today

BumbleBeeMouth · 03-13-2008, 03:24 PM

and he looks exactly like lenin!!!

I told everyone in my part of the office and none of them had heard of lenin, i explained it to my boss and she laughed, then later explained it to someone else and said stalin instead of lenin, when i corrected her she said "same thing"!!!

So how dumb are your office workmates?

spring · 03-13-2008, 03:29 PM

no way

Cool As Ice Cream · 03-13-2008, 03:29 PM

extremely dumb.

BumbleBeeMouth · 03-13-2008, 03:31 PM

I work in a call centre so....

they all think i'm weird, and that i have no life because i know so much. its like fish in a tank underwater.

spring · 03-13-2008, 03:31 PM

i don't buy your story unless you're working with retarded teenagers. but seriously, who hasn't heard of lenin? or could be as dumb as to think lenin and stalin are the same person

Does it make you feel alienated?

so i amuse myself by singing the russian national anthem whenever i walk past to go to the loo, it really is a good national anthem, i could swing my arm to it.
I think this is why i am struggling to find a girlfriend at present, i need some new company :*(

it is possible that if you had said Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov, they would have known who you meant right away

ravenguy2000 · 03-13-2008, 05:59 PM

tcm · 03-13-2008, 06:00 PM

i don't find it especially catchy... do you know the words?

tcm · 03-13-2008, 06:02 PM

tcm · 03-13-2008, 06:04 PM

the 1944 version

United forever in friendship and labour,
Our mighty republics will ever endure.
The Great Soviet Union will live through the ages.
The dream of a people their fortress secure.

Long live our Soviet motherland,
Built by the people's mighty hand.
Long live our people, united and free.
Strong in our friendship tried by fire.
Long may our crimson flag inspire,
Shining in glory for all men to see.

Through days dark and stormy where Great Lenin lead us
Our eyes saw the bright sun of freedom above
And Stalin our leader with faith in the people,
Inspired us to build up the land that we love.

Long live our Soviet motherland,
Built by the people's mighty hand.
Long live our people, united and free.
Strong in our friendship tried by fire.
Long may our crimson flag inspire,
Shining in glory for all men to see.

We fought for the future, destroyed the invaders,
And brought to our homeland the laurels of fame.
Our glory will live in the memory of nations
And all generations will honour her name.

Long live our Soviet motherland,
Built by the people's mighty hand.
Long live our people, united and free.
Strong in our friendship tried by fire.
Long may our crimson flag inspire,
Shining in glory for all men to see.

the 1977 version

Unbreakable Union of freeborn Republics,
Great Russia has welded forever to stand.
Created in struggle by will of the people,
United and mighty, our Soviet land!

Sing to the Motherland, home of the free,
Bulwark of peoples in brotherhood strong.
O Party of Lenin, the strength of the people,
To Communism's triumph lead us on!

Through tempests the sunrays of freedom have cheered us,
Along the new path where great Lenin did lead.
To a righteous cause he raised up the peoples,
Inspired them to labour and valourous deed.

Sing to the Motherland, home of the free,
Bulwark of peoples in brotherhood strong.
O Party of Lenin, the strength of the people,
To Communism's triumph lead us on!

In the victory of Communism's immortal ideal,
We see the future of our dear land.
And to her fluttering scarlet banner,
Selflessly true we always shall stand!

Sing to the Motherland, home of the free,
Bulwark of peoples in brotherhood strong.
O Party of Lenin, the strength of the people,
To Communism's triumph lead us on!

modern version

Unbreakable Union of freeborn Republics,
Great Russia has welded forever to stand.
Created in struggle by will of the people,
United and mighty, our Soviet land!

CHORUS:

Sing to the Fatherland, home of the free,
Bulwark of peoples in brotherhood strong.
O Party of Lenin, the strength of the people,
To Communism's triumph lead us on!

2.

Through tempests the sunrays of freedom have cheered us,
Along the new path where great Lenin did lead.
To a righteous cause he raised up the peoples,
Inspired them to labour and valourous deed.

CHORUS

3.

In the victory of Communism's deathless ideal,
We see the future of our dear land.
And to her fluttering scarlet banner,
Selflessly true we always shall stand!

Its very grandiose sounding though.

tcm · 03-13-2008, 06:08 PM
