>>223419361I have a Vostok watch because I wanted to be cool and stand out, but I also despise communism so I got one of the new Vostoks (made in Baltics? or for EU market so they have to pass EU standards, anyways, there's a difference, these ones are better than for the eastern market I think) that don't have a red star. It's a nice watch, first one I bought.Also I've got a lot of Russian books but I don't like how it's loaded with Christian shit, used to like them when I was younger, they collect dust now.My favourite is "Doomed City" from Strygatsky brothers, who wrote "Roadside picnic" that inspired Stalker. It's a Soviet sci-fi that makes fun of communism.That's about it I think. My favourite literature is prolly British for now. Serbs don't read so I guess answer is no to OP question, also Russians are atheists so there's comparatively very little of their culture left after communism so it's all "muh slavic stare/easterners don't smile/vodka haha". At least it seems so on the outside.
Only thing people know about russia here is ak 47. Maybe those dolls and that buidlong if you're lucky. Maybe solaris if you're luckier.

>>223419361Only people who are legit into it are boomers, mainly because they were force fed russian literature/movies. Them, and failed genXers, because they were teenagers when the wall was still up, and that was the only time they weren't miserable, but they're only into surface level stuff like CCCP and Putin Strong memes on facebook
>>223420632Light bulb, passenger airplanes, ever used that?

>>223419361thought it was polish because it ends with -sky
definitely
>>223420915I don't believe you.
>>223420793>Only people who are legit into it are boomers, mainly because they were force fed russian literatureI wouldn't say Russian lit is preferred here but we read European lit in school and Russian classics are included, not case in Bulgaria?Also, "read", most just googled short versions online or cheated on tests because they are cretins.
>>223421015Nope. I'd say we had 90% bulgarian lit, 10% western and 0% russian. Meanwhile, my grandma had to read War and Peace
>>223421212I think we had 33% western 33% Russian, 33% native. Crime and Punishment, Anna Karenina, Dead Souls, some other book by Gogol, Margarita, maybe a few others I can't remember.Haven't read Anna Karenina though because teacher felt sorry for us and made the class watch a movie but I wasn't present so I dodged that. We also read plenty of western classics tho, but they're less memorable to me because I've never heard anybody discuss them or mention them somewhere on the internet.
>>223421341Also I was in a specialist school, in more general-purpose schools like gymnasium as we call them they read even more.
>>223421341>Anna KareninaFunny, my grandma often referenced that name and I never knew what it meant
>>223419361no, not generally. i like it, and i'm "learning" russian
>>223419361imagine installing that vatnig spybot on ur computer
