I don't suppose we can count on a translation of the foot note.
Hide / Show RepliesIt roughly means:
Waldorf: Hey Statler, why are we speaking badly-translated Russian? Statler: I guess someone used Babelfish for a poor sense of humor! Waldorf: So I guess we do not even want to Soviet Russia. Statler: Why is that? Waldorf: In Soviet Russia, tropers make idiots of themselves! Both: Do-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho!
(Yay Google Translate! Yay my ability to somewhat decipher gibberish Google Translate spits out!)
Some kind troper has put hotlinks at the bottom now, which I probably should have done from the getgo, as the specifics are Lost in Translation. Comedic genius that I am, from memory I originally wrote:
W: Hey Statler, why are we speaking badly-translated Russian? S: I guess someone used Babelfish in a poor attempt at humour! W: So I guess we're not even needed in Soviet Russia? S: Why's that? W: In Soviet Russia tropers makes fools of themselves! S & W: Do-ho-ho-ho-ho Tropers: [Uproarious laughter at genius of the joke]
I then whacked the thing in Babelfish and viola! ...I really had nothing else to do, evidently.

cockerel meme is actually EXTREMELY popular in russian internet community right now. Its actually quite common to quote your debate opponent on forums as "kokoko" (bugawk-bugawk-bugawk), hinting that this person is plain gay. Example: User1: I love Justin Bieber! He has greatly personality! You guys just dont understand!! User2: [Quote=User1]Bugawk! Bugak-bu-buga-bugawk![/qute]Sorry, but I cant understand that weird language of yours.
