啤酒不算酒 揭秘你不知道的俄罗斯
1. Until 2011 in Russia, any drink that was under 10% alcohol was not considered an alcoholic2 beverage3, just a regular drink.
2011年之前,酒精含量10%以下的饮料在俄罗斯不算酒,只算常规饮料。
小编注:青岛纯生啤酒(此处绝无广告嫌疑)的度数在8-10度,所以对于战斗民族来说,那就是水啊!
2. A Russian man once drank three bottles of vodka, then jumped out of a 5 story window, walked back up, and jumped again.
有个俄国男人喝了三瓶伏特加,从五楼窗户跳下,爬起来上楼,再跳一遍。

3.Russians have a word “Zapoi”to describe several days of continuous drunkenness during which one withdraws from society.

小编注:学俄语时间到:запой(Zapoi)!据统计,20%的俄罗斯男人都有这毛病。
4. In Soviet4 Russia, prisoners would get tattoos5 of Lenin and Stalin, because guards weren’t allowed to shoot at images of national leaders.
在苏联时期,囚犯们纹上列宁和斯大林的纹身。因为卫兵不能对国家领袖的图像开枪。
小编注:关于苏联时期囚犯的纹身,复杂的都能写本书了。他们通常把列宁或斯大林的头像纹在胸口。此外,特殊的符号还有特殊的含义,例如太阳的光线代表服刑年数,骷髅头代表杀人犯,纹在肚子上的眼睛代表犯人是个gay。
