verisimilitude: Say, asciilifeform, care for an amusing tale of American ignorance?
asciilifeform: verisimilitude: ?
verisimilitude: This was many months back.
verisimilitude: I occasionally tell some close to me about some of mine activities online, in vague terms; asciilifeform is ``my Russian acquaintance''. I was telling another about how I'd found this dedicated channel, and so had been using it, after asciilifeform had been ``excommunicated'', this being from Trilema, but again, I mentioned no particulars.
verisimilitude: My response was ``Excommunicated, f-from Russia?''.
asciilifeform: lol
verisimilitude: The response I received from the other, that is.
