  11. Nik says:

    It’s from an old joke by a Soviet refugee back in the … 80′s, I think? “In California, you can always find a party. In Russia, the Party finds *you*”

    That line lead to the “Russian reversal” meme of “In Soviet Russia, [noun] [verbs] you”, with the noun being one that would normally be the object of the verb rather than the subject.

  12. Eck says:

    this made my day too, very clever.
