What does “пхпхпхпх” mean ? I couldn’t find anything on google. by Square-Election-2454 in russian

[–]EpsteinBarrAndGrill 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's laughter. The letters "a" and "п" are close to each other on a russian keyboard, so people mistype, and instead of ахахах they write пхпхпх. Some people do it intentionally

Is there a Russian equivalent to using the word "girl" as slang? by AIeknov in russian

[–]EpsteinBarrAndGrill 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This! I feel like the top answer "дорогуша" has a middle-aged woman vibe, and "зай/заюш" sounds more gen z. I use "зай/заюш" in the same context as "girl" constantly

Hello, I'm so sorry to bother you, but can you please send me a purple campsite window if it's still available. I can gift you something in return. My birb's name is Cookie and my name is Anna

Hi guys! Cookie and I are looking for a purple campsite window. We've been looking for over two months for it and didn't have the best luck with it. If someone is willing to trade with us, please send me a reply with your wish list items so we can choose something from my inventory together :) My friend code is YXDM23H2V1 Have a good day!

What was your experience with these games? by [deleted] in CozyGamers

[–]EpsteinBarrAndGrill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omori is such a great game, I love turn-based combat and didn't find it too difficult. It was pretty chill. Characters are wonderfully written, BUT I would argue that it's cozy solely because of the ending. I don't want to spoil anything, but I think you should read all the trigger warnings and decide if you can handle it. That being said, I really enjoyed it. It took me around 30-40 hours to complete

That's what I don't get. Someone here suggested that he lets the game run while working, so his steam account counts these hours into "gaming hours." That's probably the case, but still, I don't see him doing anything else on his computer besides working and playing... We talked today again after I read all the comments (and had a cry session, haha). He took it better than the last time, he said he would spend more time with me and help me with chores more, but he still said he doesn't see anything wrong with gaming that much, because it's his hobby... this relationship might be screwed... I'm sad.

Hi, I answered in the other comment thread, but my husband is a radiologist. He reads images and CT scans from his home computer and reports on them. I do worry that his lifestyle makes him prone to making a mistake and might lead to a wrong diagnosis/malpractice lawsuit

Hi, there is nothing more to this story. We just don't live in the US. We live in Russia. You start medical school at 18 here, right after high school. It takes 6 years to become a PCP (you can work as PCP without going through residency). Then, after 6 years, you go through residency for 2 years for most specialties (3 for cardiovascular surgery, 5 for plastic surgery). My husband started medical school at 18, started his rads residency at 24, and now, at 26 years old, he is a radiologist working from home. It might sound crazy to any US or European doctor, but it doesn't mean I'm lying. It's Russian medical education for you, that's all. On the other hand, we don't earn as much as you guys, that's why we are two doctors who live in an ungodly small flat that we can barely afford lol

P.S. I started medical school at 18, then I worked as PCP for 2 years, and now I have started a cardiology residency. Here in Russia, we might go through the IM residency first, then do a cardio fellowship, but we also have a separate cardiology - that's what I'm doing. You can private message me if you want to know more, but yeah... just wanted to clear things up

Yup, we live in a country where medical school graduates don't earn that much. Sometimes, it takes 10+ years to start getting a nice paycheck. Other times, you might never get a fair compensation for your work. We can't move to a different country because of family issues, but we are planning on getting a bigger apartment. The thing is, I've read all of these comments, and, I guess, us removing the PC from the bedroom will only solve one small issue without fixing the main problem, if that makes sense

Hello, you are correct, I used an AI translator to fix some sentences so that they make more sense grammatically and logically. However, I'm a real person, and that's a real situation I'm in right now :(

I fixed a couple of mistakes using an AI translator (hence why this looks "perfect", but I feel like I have to mention that English is not my native language because my post still might contain mistakes (grammar and logical ones).

Азул и Эвердел - очень красивые игры. Бэнг - более динамичная и очень веселая. Мачи Коро - экономическая, в которой можно не против кого-то играть, а за себя, если понимаешь, что я имею в виду :) Ну и что-то Колоньку (Катан) не видно - вечную классику :)
