We have photos of celebrations in Ukraine and Belarus, and some people carrying pictures of Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin, who is generally considered a guy you wouldn’t want as a neighbor. I’m wondering how they get folks to do that.
Honey, did you pick up our posters for the big celebration tomorrow?
Yeah, I got Stalin again. It’s all they had left!
Jeez! Again? Were they out of the Hitler ones?
Completely.
And no Mussolini?
Nope.
Vlad the Impaler? Jack the Ripper?
All gone.
Barry Manilow?
Zip.
Who do you have to KNOW to get out of carrying this Stalin crap? Next year, we make our own Hannibal Lecter signs!
Impress your boss. Join the Oddly Enough blog network!

The only difference is Putin has’t had the same amount time to lock down the opression apparatus and open the gulags
