In Soviet Russia, title writes YOU!!

So in SLC on Friday I had this sudden urge to speak using Russian Reversal. It was so much fun! And it had the added bonus of driving Mr. Stibitz crazy, of course. I spent the whole class saying everything I could in Russian Reversal (and I must say, I am good at it) (In Soviet Russia, it's good at YOU!!) For example, as you will see in the most recent Fun and Out-of-Context Quotes, when I had to go to the bathroom I asked, "In Soviet Russia, can bathroom go to YOU??" I even got a couple of my friends to do it too, making it all the more entertaining (In Soviet Russia, entertainment makes YOU!!). We were working on a project in the tech center (In Soviet Russia, project works on YOU!!), with Powerpoint. I changed the title slide to look like this (In Soviet Russia, title slide changes YOU!!):

While we were working I did my best to drive everyone else crazy (In Soviet Russia, crazy drives YOU!!) by Russian Reversing everything they said and more. In Soviet Russia, really hard to pack a full sentence of information into a Russian Reversal and still make it funny becomes YOU!! I encourage you to try it- pick a class (In Soviet Russia, class picks YOU!!) and try to RR everything for the full class period...it's actually really fun, but difficult at the same time. Now I will share some out-of-order highlights from an IM conversation I had with a non-IA friend on Friday, with some random imput from another non-IA friend (In Soviet Russia, highlights share YOU!!):

Me: In Soviet Russia riddle has YOU!!
Non-IA friend #1: AH! SOME MUCH RUSSIAN STUFF!!!!
Me: In Soviet Russia confused is YOU??
Non-IA friend #1: me is confused now
Me: In Soviet Russia confused is YOU!!
Non-IA friend #1: dont you dare
Me: In Soviet Russia don't dares YOU!!
Non-IA friend #2: I HAVE TO GO WATER MY FICUS
Non-IA friend #1: btw, he doesnt have a ficus
Me: In Soviet Russia ficus waters YOU!!
Me: In Soviet Russia link clicks YOU!!
Me: In Soviet Russia dot dot dot questions YOU!!
Me: i like that 1

Me: In Soviet Russia battery re-volts YOU!!
Me: In Soviet Russia useless never-ending conversation has YOU!!
Non-IA friend #1: LOL SPICE GIRLS (referring to the last of these)
Me: In Soviet Russia Spice Girls lol at YOU!!

It was much, much longer than that, but I feel that that selection captures the point pretty well (In Soviet Russia, point captures YOU!!). So seriously, try it sometime (In Soviet Russia, it tries YOU!!). It's fun. In Soviet Russia, post ends YOU!!

Do u know who I am?

(In case you don't know, this is someone in your ab initio Deutsch Klassen who has NEVER been inthe fun-and-out-of-context-quotes section because they never have funny things to say . . . there, that should make it pretty obvious.)

Just wanted u to know, my little sister Emily is demanding that I "tell you about my black husband." [Explanation to that weird statement will be given when this Harvey-sent vacation is over and I see u in Deutsch.]

Wait, Em wants to write something . . .

Emily: HO HO HO HO!!!!!!!!!! (that is laughing, GOSH!)

Anyway, as bored as we are, die Familie ist readen yur Bloggen, und wir ist enjoyen das. Das ist goot. :) (Das wast Emoticonen).

Vielen Dank fuer das Funnies!
