You were close, but a few months too late.
Teeth, Sunday and Rose, thank you for your impossibly kind words.
Sorry about the piercings. Like I said, you are swift and magical like a cat, and often hard to keep up with.
Anyway, I feel that I have somehow let you down, Teeth. There were eight more subtle aspects of all your favorite things in life woven through that wish list. I must have buried them too far down for you to see.
Also, number 3 is a paradox, a riddle, a joke and double entendre all infused with little pieces of your life. I blew that one, too.
Here's what you have in Russian:
yopt va you mas
better rendered as:
yop tvoyu mat'
which is essentially, "fuck you," (lit.: "I fucked your mother.")
Your other one:
tee show-pa
is really close, but better rendered:
tee zhopa
which basically means "you are an asshole."
On the Russian obscenity scale, these are extremely tame. There are so many physically-impossible, sick, nasty, twisted things you can say to people in Russian that you wonder sometimes if the language was invented for just that purpose!
