REMEMBER MOST VIVIDLY AND
WHY?
9 SLOGAN
10 JOKE
During the Communist rule, a Muscovite had a pet parrot. The parrot wouldn’t stop
cursing at the Socialist government. The pet owner had a visit from a party
member, and, to make sure that the parrot wouldn’t get him into trouble, he
locked him up in the fridge. After the party member had gone away, the man took
the parrot out of the fridge, and the pet started shouting: “Long live the USSR! Long
live Brezhnev!”. The pet owner was astounded: “What are you saying? Just a few
hours ago you were cursing at the government…” The parrot simply answered:
“Yeah...I was, but two hours in Siberia were more than enough for me…”.
