I thought it was the Russians who invented everything.

No no no — all culture came from mud huts in Africa. Good grief, people!

“I thought it was the Russians who invented everything.”

Cold War joke:

One morning in Russia in 1840 a peasant went out into his fields and discovered two trees with a copper wire stretched between them. On this basis Russians claim to have invented the telegraph.

On that same morning a Chinese peasant went out into his fields and didn’t find any wires, so the Chinese now claim to have invented the wireless.

Oof....

And speaking of inventing things, I suppose you’ve heard of Alexander Graham Kowalski, the first telephone Pole?

(I’ll shut up)

Yeah, sounds like Ensign Checkov prattling about every advance in human history deriving from Mother Russia.
