It's cheap. We're broke. Tired. And in no mood to cook when we get home.

Twenty years working in food service, and I've never see anyone do that.

I tried to convince my GM to sell me a case of sausage patties. Apparently, they risk losing their franchise license if caught doing that.

Not allowed. We'd have to split it a dozen ways, even if we were.

My paternal grandfather is from Kiev. I asked him if that meant we were Ukrainian or Russian. His response: "You no understand. Back then, only Soviet."

So, it didn't really answer my question. We've always identified as Russian. What are the important differences? How important are they from the perspective of someone living in Russia?
