Only Pick One

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Sunday, 22 October 2006 23:55 (twenty years ago)

man! i was going to pick armenia, but it's actually not bordered by russia. thanks a lot, azerbaijan!

so it's a hard choice between mongolia and finland. perhaps kyrgyzstan? they have amazing mountains. and bride-kidnapping. and a crazy name.

mongolia has bbq. finland has tuomas.

mongolia has oriental exoticism, but tuomas is pretty irresistible

I'm going to be rockist and say China. The philosophers! The cities! The inventions, ooh!

China is like the Rolling Stones of countries bordered by Russia.

belarus -- something has to be said about a country that's still clinging to stalinism even after everything that's happened in the past 20 years or so.

i'd stay out of the slavic countries. the food's too bland.

― Maria (Maria), Monday, 23 October 2006 00:51 (twenty years ago)

that's why they drink so much vodka, though!

estonia and belarus have the coolest tennis players though (kaia kanepi and victoria azarenka!). as does the ukraine actually, yulia beygelzimer and her amazing name/amazing flapper hair. actually all tennis players from ex-soviet countries tend to be great!

― The Lex (The Lex), Monday, 23 October 2006 10:44 (twenty years ago)

I'm going to be a smart ass and say Lithuania (using the small bit of Russia that's Kaliningrad)

Maybe Ukraine for their perpetually nutty Eurovision entries.
