    The other day i was in this taxi going somewhere... The driver seemed to be one of them chatty ones. "Sooo... You going out tonigh? Where you going? Had a good day? blaaa blaaa blaaa". It turns out he is from Afghanistan... So i think... ok, fair enough... I was stupid enough to ask him what its like living down there. He ended up complaining about everyone invading his country and how much he hates Americans (Yet he lives in UK...). Then he noticed my accent...

    You are not from England are you? Im glad you are not he says... I don't really like English either... Some British soldier apparently shot his brother... Ok, so im starting to get worried...

    Where you from? he asks...

    Straight away, without thinking i say: "Oh, im Russian!" (Wrong thing to say)

    That was the end of our conversation lol

    Do you think that having an army means invading someone.
    They have army to defend themselves if anything, anytime goes wrong...
