I'm guessing everything is cheaper there. But, there are some things that are fixed price, but I doubt you're as generous with government sponsorship of corporate interests as we are.

The speeds back home and prices basically changed backwards to the way thtey do in Europe. The speeds were basically stagnant and the cost was increasing substantially. In 2000 when we got our first broadband connection it was 4mbps and over a decade later the fastest connection we could get was 5mbps. I don't count cable as it's horribly unreliable and capped.

When I noticed Serbia I just couldn't resist to post this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfLvnXIu664

He is a serbian living in Australia. I know you don't swear that much but yet he is funny as hell :D

This is for good night sleep from me: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMTuWj2_OPA

I saw the video out of curiosity...
The guy freaked the hell out of me... He's like a very loud Jim Carry x_X'

He is hilarious ...watch the whole series :D Actually Serbia is the country with most ways you can curse somebody ...they have big tallent for that :D

Hehe, we tend to swear A-Lot in arab countries also, and we have some of the nastiest swears ever, si it doesn't really bother me :P

Other than that, I so the videos he made about how to kiss a girl and how to kick the living crap out of someone ( a Watermelon human...). The more videos I watch of him, the more I think of Jim Carrey (Especially in his Ace ventura movies)

There use to be a list with all the curses in Serbian... you will be amazed how much can you say in that language ...trust me...the list was enormous

I have at home a french "Dictionnaire des Jurons", meaning an Insult Dictionnary, and it's quiet heavy.
Most of the insults and curses are taken from litterature though and aren't used nowadays, as they either are old fashioned or sound completely ridiculous.

Russian language is so flexible it basically allows you to only curse while expressine your thoughts with using very few "decent" words. ;) I am not an expert in this, but I know people can do it. :)

"Đurđice đurđice cvatu jebem ti mamu i tatu jebem ti baku i dedu a onda si ti na redu. "
This is one of the bad ones ;)

I kind of understand it actually. But that sounds more like a proverb to me. We have a joke like this. A commission decided to determine where people at the construction site swear more so they went to country A, not so much,country B, already worse, country C even worse. So they come to Russia and hear this:

Эй, дай ту фигню нафиг. Прифигаривай ту фигню на фиговину. А нафига эта фигулька? (Sorry I use the soft version here - but it's easy to get the pattern).

In Bulgaria we do curse a lot too... I guess slavian languages have the option to do it :D

Linguistic explanation for Russian language would be that the usage of the word is heavily defined by the form you are using it in - conjugation with various endings, prefixes, postfixes, suffixes etc. To use the word right you should know well what to put into it. That is also why we have no fixed order of words in the sentence - you know what the word refers to just by looking at all those *fixes. A side effect of this would be that you can replace one word with the other (sometimes completely irrelevant) and still preserve the meaning, which would still be clear from the prefix-ending-suffix-postfix combination. That is why you can use curses instead of "normal" words. :) I presume Bulgarian could be similar in this aspect.

Yep Bulgarian and Serbian are like that too...
