While browsing the Trojan Games site (not safe for work) I saw an ad for a Romanian bank:



I know things are kind of primitive there, but is Andy Kaufman writing their ads?

Sure, and it's even worse in the eastern bloc, where banks are basically run by criminals who take the money and run. The ad just hit my absurdist bone.

Yeah, Romania's a weird country. I have a relative there, and she says that it's really going down-hill fast - about to collapse, really. It's going to be an ugly few years, in the Eastern Bloc.
