A normal conversation with a Russian is about "how good their stuff is".

I have 2 Russian neighbors. We asked one about his golf cart and his response was "it's very very expensive". Meanwhile we are talking about a golf cart LOL and his house sucks.

Or Russians will always brag about how they drink "the most expensive stuff" while living in a shitty apartment.

Really really weird people. I've had a lot of experience with them.
