Unfortunately i do not remember the name of the original poster. I took some freedom in translating it into English in order to make it more understandable to English-speaking auditory. A line of Russian soldiers stands in front of a huge rectangular hole in the ground. Sergant commands:- "Private Ivanov!" - "Yes, sir." - "Stand like this:" O _|______ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | -"Jump!!" The soldier jumps into the hole. The sergant commands again: - "Private Pyetrov!!" - "Yes, sir!" - "Stand like this:" | | O \ -|-| | | | | \-\ | | | | | | -" Yes, sir!" -" Jump!" The soldier jumps and falls into the hole. The sergant commands again: -" Private Sidorov!!" -" Yes, sir!" _" Stand like this:" O |-|-| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | -" Yes, sir!" At this point a car with a colonel arrives to that place. Colonel, very angry, comes up to the sergant and tells him: "Comrad sergant, how many times do I have to tell you: STOP PLAYING TETRIS WITH THE SOLDIERS!!!!!!!!!" -- Selected by Jim Griffith.
