Is it true that "voda" is water in Russian?

 True, and 'vodka' is diminutive of voda or ‘water’.

This is hilarious!  I would like to see this done in other countries too e.g. Zelensky, Biden, Trump, etc.  In California, the DMV has a picture of our Governor hanging on the wall… if i were governor i would not want my picture there… sort of like putting your giant mug on the tax bill!

Perhaps not as good as the jokes posted above, but still :

 

Nordnet Danmark [Danish branch of Nordnet Bank AB, Sweden][December 23 2024] : Nordnet - Make investing in stocks and funds more fun

 

 

 

 

I have seen this commercial on Danish TV, too.

To me, it looks like a Christmas shopping spree!

 

And please look carefully at the box colour - Isen't that the - now - dropped and abolished [bold move by LVMH, btw.] - 'Tiffany teal' colour? -No price increases, please!

What's funny is that almost all of them were checking behind the picture to see if they were being surveilled!  Cheers!

This is also how I squeeze returns from my investments.

But it ticks all boxes, veteran owned, re- occurring revenue, demographic trends .

Make sure you buy 20 loafs of bread and at least 17 Gallons of milk.

I'm guessing they are Punjabi or Sikh...they use a ton of milk to make an Indian cheese called paneer.  Not uncommon to see the same thing in Costcos in Vancouver or Bellingham.  They also freeze the milk and use it over time when it's priced cheaply.  Cheers!

I've read some comments and discussion about promises under the recent Presidential US election lately here on CofB&F.

 

Which reminded me of, 30 years ago, we had a Danish comedian, called Jakob Haugaard [still alive and kicking] , who, back then - as a joke - did run for our national Danish lesgislative body, called 'Folketinget'. and actually got elected!

 

Here is his election promises from back then :

For some of the points, one has to be Dane with local knowledge, to understand, but I think you all get the picture.

This channel showed up in my YouTube feed and is hilarious and his advice isn’t pretty good , imo:

 

I wish I watched this 30+ years ago. I just sent this to my buddy’s college son.  Hopefully he will learn, but I am afraid that he will have put his hand in the fire to learn that it is hot.

@Hektor

 

Please don't take this too seriously. It will eventually come to an end.

 

Stubborn rumors exist that he has ordered his last shirt at his taylor many years ago, and every time he's presented with the very-very final version of the shirt, - he turns it down as a no-go, because the pockets in the shirt aren't big enough to contain his whole news media group. So, keep on seewing!

 

Even Murdoch has adapted and adopted to a thing or two of Buffetts, trying to take it to the next level, ref. Buffetts comments about Berkshires jet years ago.

Morbid humor only advances while getting old, especially if one is not totally well and at good health. Everything else eventually going down, you name it : Muscle mass, testerone levels, libido, hair on your head emmigrating from your head to your chest and back, caused by eternal, relentless and constant gravitatiion!, and you name it!

 

It's a human built-in psychological survival techniqe, plain and simple, because getting old really sucks, if one is not at good health.

@Spekulatius,

 

How is your personal perception, stance and assessment, of the above [perhaps] being fake and / or  manipulated? - Thank you in advance. Question asked, based on me, again asking : 'What do I know?'
