Okay, I give up. What is it? posted by grobstein at 6:01 PM on January 24, 2007
It tries very hard not to make explicit sense but to contain as many contradictory cultural references as possible. I think it is what people call "post-modern art." posted by bhouston at 6:02 PM on January 24, 2007

A thing of beauty awesome. That's just what it is. posted by grabbingsand at 6:05 PM on January 24, 2007

I don't know why. But I love this website.

* Back in the pre-web Usenet days, I made up the Nazi Name Game (von Ribbentrop is a ball-buster) and people got enraged that I made fun of the Nazis instead of taking them very, very seriously. posted by kirkaracha at 6:41 PM on January 24, 2007
It's well put together, and I really don't understand it at all. Which I totally groove.
I have no idea where to click to get something interesting or useful.
So it's kinda like Metafilter. I dig it. posted by Cyrano at 6:42 PM on January 24, 2007
I'm not really big on Stalin, but I actually really like the design feel. If only it was a little less... oh, I don't know... Stalin-y?
Hmmm... needs more Tito. And perhaps a sprinkle of Mussolini with a side of Chairman Mao... posted by miss lynnster at 6:46 PM on January 24, 2007
Pretty amazing design. I'm impressed with the amount of work that went in to it, even if I am unable to devine the why. posted by Devils Rancher at 6:49 PM on January 24, 2007
It's like a soviet themed superbad. posted by boo_radley at 7:02 PM on January 24, 2007

I'm too tired to try and figure out sites like this anymore. There's no pay off anyway.
-points for design tho.. posted by Parannoyed at 7:43 PM on January 24, 2007
Brother and I were just discussing Stalin the other day, in the context of who would be the best actor to get for the definitive blowjob biopic; I vote for Tom Selleck. posted by adoarns at 7:51 PM on January 24, 2007
So this light-grey font on a slightly darker-grey background thing, was that one of Stalin's favorite torture methods? posted by c13 at 7:55 PM on January 24, 2007
Stalin-rific? posted by The Deej at 8:27 PM on January 24, 2007
I noticed that the A is upside down on the first page. It's like they're trying to make fun of the way people try to Russianize a word by making some of its letters backwards.
Is the party music by Stalin himself? posted by Count at 8:53 PM on January 24, 2007
Y'know what this webpage needs? More cowbell! posted by grapefruitmoon at 11:43 PM on January 24, 2007

I feel like one of us should drive over to this guy's house and see if he's alright.

languagehat, that's only one out of the many bad translations posted by vodkadin at 2:40 PM on January 25, 2007
Oh, sure, but I wasn't correcting their translation (which I didn't even notice at first), just expressing my joy in an appropriately Stalinoid way, and translating for the benefit of those few MeFites not fluent in the great and mighty Russian tongue. posted by languagehat at 4:52 PM on January 25, 2007
