15 Facts About St. Petersburgers
1. If you buy a train ticket and tell a St. Petersburg friend about it, they will be sincerely surprised if you didn't buy a ticket to St. Petersburg.
2. Most St. Petersburgers are sure that there is nothing north of St. Petersburg, and Murmansk is a mythical country like Atlantis or Lapland.
3. Most St. Petersburgers are sure that there are no museums anywhere else in Russia except St. Petersburg.
4. For St. Petersburgers, there are only two roads - to Moscow and to Finland - and both are for work and both are direct.
5. Every St. Petersburg resident is sure that all the people standing in their way to exit the subway car are definitely getting off at their stop. That is why St. Petersburgers constantly create a crush in the Moscow subway cars - they just cannot imagine that other people simply need a different station.
6. The word "ring" is associated with a pawnshop for St. Petersburgers. For St. Petersburgers who have lived in Moscow for a long time, it is associated with the MKAD. But even the most advanced St. Petersburgers, who have lived in Moscow for a very long time, do not know about the circular subway line, as well as about the Garden Ring, the Boulevard Ring, and the 3rd Transport Ring.
7. St. Petersburg is the most beautiful city in the world. Because there are only 3 cities in the world - St. Petersburg, Moscow, and Helsinki, and it is cold in Helsinki and there live Finns, and it is inconvenient to travel by subway in Moscow (because St. Petersburgers do not know about the circular line).
8. St. Petersburg is the safest city in the world. Even despite the dark alleys and the simultaneous green light for pedestrians and cars at the intersection. Simply because it is cold in Helsinki and there live Finns, and you can get lost in the Moscow subway (because St. Petersburgers do not know about the circular line).
9. There is no sun - this is a product of the sick imagination of Muscovites - they always want to show off.
10. There are no nights either. And the sky is always gray. Muscovites just have hidden complexes.
11. There is only one river in the world. You all know what it is called.
12. Venice does not exist - it is a prototype of the paradise of St. Petersburg.
13. Most St. Petersburgers are sure that the 7 wonders of the world are: Nevsky Prospekt, the Gulf of Finland, the Savior on Spilled Blood, the Alexander Column, the Champ de Mars, the Isaac Cathedral, and the drawbridges.
14. The chosen people are not the Jews, but the St. Petersburgers.
15. In the beginning, God created the gray sky and the Champ de Mars. And God populated St. Petersburg with St. Petersburgers and said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply and fill St. Petersburg." And the Finns and Muscovites came from monkeys.
