Nothing quite like a 2am discussion on Russians

xstanleymanx: I love listening to Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninoff while doing physics or math. There is nothing like angsty russian composers to promote a sense of profoundness and severity
Annademon05: i spent last finals week frantically reading and attempting to comprehend russian intellectuals while choking on diet red bull
Annademon05: i still have a little residual bitterness towards the russians right now
xstanleymanx: I love russians
xstanleymanx: russian mathematicians anyway
xstanleymanx: I dont know much about russian authors
Annademon05: your wording for the music fits, profound and severe
Annademon05: nothing like spending 10 years in a siberian prison to leach away the humor
xstanleymanx: quite true
Annademon05: they lived in a country that had to concept of free speech it was a hard life
xstanleymanx: thats why they make such good scientists
Annademon05: do they? that i don't know about
xstanleymanx: they really are the best
