POST-EDITING[edit source]

Please check your edits after awhile if you edited the page. There's this user modusoperandi that keeps censoring/vandalizing your edits everytime an edit is made. (he'd make up any excuse to censor your edit)

   In Russian Reversal, modusoperandi reverts YOU!!

--200.204.187.163 21:06, 9 October 2006 (UTC) In Soviet Russia, other country stereotype YOU!! (it is good, add it!) In Soviet Russia, videos convert YOU!! In Soviet Russia, money spends YOU!! In Soviet Russia, McDonalds loves YOU!!

61.94.127.116 16:20, 12 July 2006 (UTC) ADD:(" ") This PSA brought to you by the People United Against Crappy Russian Reversals (for life and peoples safety)

  • I'm not vandalizing the page, damnit! See "Purging" below? Russian Reversal almost got VFD'd because crap RR's were spreading all over Uncyclopedia. Russian Reversal got NRV'd because this page had no focus.
    • In order to prevent this page from being purged entirely from Uncylopedia the page was cleaned up, cut, and focused into a laser pin point of reversalish precision.
      • If you contribute to this page, follow two simple rules:
        • 1) No cruft. None. Zero. Zippo.
          • a: this means no Chuck Norris roundhouse kicking you, no Kanye West not caring about you, etc.
          • b: this also means no dumb reversals. Towel dries you is not only not funny, it's not even a RR.
        • 2) The Russian Reversal, in its purest form, is based on the dualistic theorem that:
          • a: America is both good and free
          • b: Soviet Russia is both bad and oppressive
      • Therefore, to prevent this page from going VFD again, if you make a reversal that is either cruft, not based on the Dualistic theorem of the Russian Reversal, or both, it will be RV'd. You can break either of these rules only if the Reversal is friggin' hilarious.
        • I'm not trying to be an asshole: I'm just trying to protect and nurture that which the great prophet Yakov gave us.
        • If you have a problem with that, feel free to create your own damn page. Modusoperandi 16:52, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

Post editing redux[edit source]

Wow, an 61.94.126.108 user just changed the "Please check your edits..." by 61.94.127.116 to read:

  • Please check your edits after awhile if you edited the page. Censorship happens not only in Russia, if good men fails to act. There's this user modusoperandi that keeps censoring/vandalizing your edits everytime an edit is made. He'd make up any excuse to censor your edit like saying that he edit the page so it gets cleaned up, cut, and focused into a laser pin point of reversalish precision. And citing VFDs, NRVs, WMDs and everything just like one of them Bush did with Iraq. And if he's got a problem with that, he should feel free to create his own d*mn page. (Damn is best written with a *, in spirit of censorship)
Hilarious! That is unless the 61.94.126.108 is also 61.94.127.116 in which case it's the opposite of that. Don't come here for a pissing contest. If you have a problem with my unhealthy fixation with Yakov Smirnoff, take it up with an admin.
What I said before stands. Russian Reversal is a magnet for cruft. Whatever the opposite of a magnet is, that's what I am. Modusoperandi 18:17, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
61.94.126.108 is also 61.94.127.116 is also 61.94.127.232

Post editing redux redux[edit source]

To anon IP, my humblest apologies for killing the "Rare Indonesian Reversal" before. I get it now. Brain...slow...sometimes. Again, I'm sorry. That being said... Modusoperandi 19:32, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Apology accepted, I'm sorry for vandalizing your userpage too. My humblest apologies to you. Emotions... too fast.. sometimes. That being said, however...

61.94.127.232 15:56, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

"In Soviet Russia, UMD pops out from YOU!!" is, was, and will continue to be decrufted whenever it gets put in by anyone. If the UMD pops out from you in Soviet Russia, in America you would pop out from your UMD. That is absurd and unlike other RR's that don't follow the rules of RR, ala "..Norris Chucks you.." RR, it's not all that good. Plus it pushes a site that is not Uncyc, which makes people sad. As I said before, and before that, and before that, I'm not trying to be a dink, it just comes with the territory with trying to prevent this page from crufting, which would lead to the literal end of this page. Then no one would be able to add to this page, including you. Modusoperandi 19:32, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Well, you worry too much. Russian Reversal is such a fab that it'd be renewed even if it goes to VFD. But yeah, there are such jokes that're just plain stupid and not funny. So, rather than censoring every post, better to set up a good guide and a good header template that sends people to talk pages before adding something stupid. Putting that in an article wouldn't make much of a difference since morons don't read instructions/skim thru to get to the juice and when they see something they don't like, they rv the page. (dude, face it, the history shows an rv basically after every edit) RR is good already as it is, so just leave the LEAVE THE FUCKIN' ARTICLE ALONE!! tag on top. (I found that somewhere in uncyclop) Unless you can come up with something (preferrable a template) funnier and more efficient. (And more RR) 61.94.127.232 15:56, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
You're right that I do care too much about, what is essentially, a silly idea. What you have to remember is that the RR has few friends and many enemies. Literally every page has at one time had a crap RR placed on it by someone who really has no idea what RR is. The difference between Oscar Wilde and Yakov Smirnoff is that Oscar actually gets some respect.
Instead of refering them to the talkpage, it's better to hope that they read the articlepage before they edit. A bad RR can always be removed, but the chance of someone who's witty enough to instantly come up with a crap RR reading anything is slim to none (template included). The reason that there are so many RVs in RR is split between rampant cruft by people who don't know RR and my unwillngness to let it build up.
Instead of the "read the article" template, how about a "Before adding RRs, instruction reads you" template just about the "list" of RRs? It's not technically a RR and it doesn't roll of the tongue, but it's the best that I could come up with on the fly.
I must continue the policing of this page, it's my duty as a loyal citizen of whatever country it is that I am from. If it's an RR and/or if it's really good...it stays. If it's cruft...gone. The UMD one is neither. It's a cute clip. But it's neither hilarious nor an RR. So it's gone. Modusoperandi 20:51, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
I put a mod'd template in above the section that gets crufted the most. Opinions? Modusoperandi 21:01, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

Purging[edit source]

As discussed on VFD, this article is inarguably out of hand. In order to save it, I propose the following removals (in entirety of cited section):

  • under Official List:
  1. In Soviet Russia, reversal reads YOU!!
  2. In Soviet Russia, Japanese translates YOU!!
  3. In Soviet Russia, Ctrl-Alt-Del hits YOU!!
  4. In Soviet Russia, culture pops YOU!!
  5. In Soviet Russia, reversal breaks YOU!!
  6. In Soviet Russia, more writes YOU!!
  • under Quotes read YOU:
  1. everything

constructive revisions:

  • under Official List:
  1. In Soviet Russia, shirt wears YOU!!
    • stipulation: header and explanation removed, poem left (perhaps as a quote).
  • under ...IRC reads YOU:
    • rewrite text to use as an anti-n00b-usage example. Possibly include the words "booted from #uncyclopedia".

And thus my proposal reads YOU!!. --Crown.gifHis Royal Majesty, Simulacrum Caputosis the GreatCrown.gif19:31, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

    • PS I would just do it now and say RV if you didn't like it, but I'm afraid of banination.


If I remember correctly Yakov's act consisted of him saying how great freedom was in the USA after having experienced how the system screws you back in Russia. While the page has drifted from that original, pure Yakovian vision of the world it has, for the most part, drifted funny vice drifted not-funny. I'm sure that he would have made jokes about the freedom of the interweb here versus the unfreedom of the interweb in Soviet Russia, had he the tools to do so at the time.
I like it the way it is, decruft if you like, but don't be surprised if the many followers of the Yakovian way put most of them back. You could try making it an anti-noob page, but I suspect that people old enough to remember Yakov have been on this interweb thing for long enough to not be noobish (and that the remaining world is either too old or too young to care about Yakov). Modusoperandi 01:56, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
I just pared down the page, removing those quotes that weren't in the spirit of our prophet Yakov. Be careful when adding new ones (or putting old ones back); apparently Yakov has gone viral and spread around this wiki like Chuck, and before him Wilde. I wonder who'll take over the interweb next? Modusoperandi 03:16, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
What a difference a day makes. There's purging, and then there's bulimia. I went to bed, and when I woke up this page didn't interest me at all...sigh. Is the problem that people have the attention span of gnats, or that the words of the prophet Yakov just won't be appreciated until he dies? Modusoperandi 03:09, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
Dude, stop vandalizing this page! How do you ban a user in this uncyclopedia anyway.
In Russian Reversal, modusoperandi bans YOU!! 61.94.127.116 16:20, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
Try Ban Patrol for banning vandals. Try banning me, and I'll be hurt deep down inside where I'm soft like a woman, as I'm a Cop for this page. Vandals vandalize. Cops keep order. Shades of grey, really. See my polemic under "Post-editing" for details. Heck, read any of my comments on this talk page. Modusoperandi 17:01, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

Try Harder![edit source]

  • In Soviet Russia, towel dries YOU!!

Really? Does that mean in America you dry your towels? Try harder! Don't make me turn this car around... Modusoperandi 15:15, 10 February 2006 (UTC)


In Soviet Russia, car turns YOU!! Micoolio101 08:03, 18 August 2006 (UTC)Micoolio101

and Try Following the Rules Too, Damnit![edit source]

"In America you X Y, in Soviet Russia Y Xs YOU"!!, America=Freedom, Soviet Russia=Oppression

Is that so hard to remember? I don't check the page for five days and, BOOM! someone has gone and cut the esses out of most of the Yakovisms. Sigh. I'm done with it, first the rather Stalinist purging, now the good (but off-topic) stuff that got cut is being replaced by crap (In Soviet Russia, baby feed YOU!!, c'mon!) while the old (and partly on-topic) stuff is getting mangled. User:Nerd42, it's up to you now. Use the force, and whatnot. Peace, I'm out of here. Sigh. Modusoperandi 01:20, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

Damnit?? In Soviet Russia Itdamns YOU!! And page checks YOU!! And crap replaces YOU!! And here is out of YOU!! lol In SR, loud laughs out YOU!! lol

Something missing:[edit source]

The heading for the TOC should read something like, In Soviet Russia, Contents Table YOU!!. Someone give me the okay to change it. 128.252.249.151 22:43, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

Now look here!![edit source]

This article is the only humour i get in my life. (In soviet russia, humour gets YOU !!) I propose nothing be done to this article. It is really quite good. Infact, I reckon someone should expand this and put more info in it. If that fails, then it should be written in the style of a typical russian communist. Jizm 16:45, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

Yes, but idiotic IPs add pathetic reversals, which we remove to stop this article from being stupid. Micoolio101 23:36, 20 September 2006 (UTC)Micoolio101

Does anybody else notice that this is not very funny?[edit source]

I have seen these "russian reversal" quotes appearing all over uncyclopedia, as if someone is trying to put them everywhere thinking that they are as funny as the "oscar wilde" quotes. Not only is the joke inherently stupid (reverse something stupid...haha), but it is based on an idea that the USSR and the US are opposites, which is inherently stupid, and the USSR does not even exist any more. Just reversing a sentence that comes out of your ass "glue dry you" "flower wilt you" "printer print you" "wall square you" is NOT FUNNY.

Unfortunately you quite clearly have not grasped the ideas of this. First and foremost, Oscar Wilde is infact a moron, and making up quotes from him is just plain bloody stupid. Secondly, sign your comments or else the 80 ft tall electro penguins will pwn your ass. Yes. Anywhooo, the fact you reckon that the USSR and US MUST be opposite for this to be funny is idiotic to an extent whereby your humour glands are ripped out by Lucifer himself. Now bugger off and stop wasting my precious time. Jizm 15:39, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

In Soviet Russia, Jokes don't get YOU!! Marshmellow 16:10, 4 June 2006

Pissed[edit source]

Okay, even though I stormed out after the purge a couple of months ago, I've been watching this page.

Most of the edits have, to be polite, sucked. Yakov is not amused.

I've just decrufted the, um, cruft and corrected the incorrect. Yakov is pleased.

Hail Yakov! Hurrah! Hurrah! Hurrah! Modusoperandi 20:59, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

In Soviet Russia, bad edits piss on YOU!! --Nerd42eMailTalkUnMetaWPediah2g2 21:06, 24 June 2006 (UTC)


New one[edit source]

OK, I wrote one that I think is funny, however, I'm worried that it doesn't follow the rules because it doens't END in YOU!! It is:

  • In America, you put jobs and clubs in facebook, In Soviet Russia, job clubs YOU in face with book!!

Alternatively it could be written simply "job clubs YOU!!, but I think making fun of facebook is what makes the joke worthwhile. Any input? -Drdisque 23:17, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

Wow, I'm really not a kid anymore. I'd never heard of this place you call Facebook. "You A B C, A B You C-C", seems a bit compicated for a RR. Anybody else have an opinion on this one? Modusoperandi 00:52, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

nice job[edit source]

I think I peed a little from laughing at this page. Nice job. 138.217.206.77 14:40, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

Clean up[edit source]

I'm going to clean up this page.

Removed Russian reversals (You can add them back if you like):

  • In Soviet Russia, anti-lock brakes YOU!! (WTF?)
  • In Soviet Russia, milk got YOU!! (That just sounds stupid)
  • In Soviet Russia, with that; fries wants YOU!! (That is not funny)
  • In Soviet Russia, train spots YOU!! (Not oppressive or bad)
  • In Soviet Russia, direction finds YOU!! (Not oppressive or bad)
  • In Soviet Russia, depression gets YOU!! (Stupid)
  • In Soviet Russia, movie pirates YOU!!

It is indeed protected from IPs and new users. I think 4 days may or may not be the cutoff. I've fixed it for you. You can sleep easy at night now. Oh, and didn't you read the rules?

The problem we run into if everything is allowed on the page is that everything is allowed on the page. This leads to rampant crufting. Later, cannibalism. This is why we focus on the true path of the Prophet Yakov. All else is heresy and must be stamped out. Praise Yakov! --Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 00:12, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

in soviet russia, article edits YOU!! Nevertheless, I agree with Modusopperandi. Only the choosen ones should be allowed to write. We should pass this on the wikipedia front page.--~~mister max~~

RRs and rules[edit source]

  • The problem with these RRs is they don't follow the rules. I know it seems odd, Uncylopedia having rules, but w/o them the RR page fills up with too many blah RRs. The simple to follow rules add focus to the page, and prevent it from crufting too much. --Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 10:40, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

In Soviet Russia, Monty Python Quotes YOU!![edit source]

In the article under the rules it says: Always print the word "YOU" in ALLCAPS and then finish the sentence with no more and no less than two exclamation points, and italicise those even if the rest of the sentence isn't.

someone who is able should add the quote from Montey Python and the Holy Grail concerning the holy hand gernade.

Here the quote is "Then, shalt thou count to three. No more. No less. Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, nor either count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then, lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it."

you could then change it to something along the lines of: "Then, shalt thou type two exclemation marks. No more. No less. Two shalt be the number thou shalt type, and the number of the typing shall be two. Three shalt thou not count, nor either count thou tone, excepting that thou then proceed to two. Four is right out. Once the number two, being the second number, be reached, then, pressest thou enter key and sumit thy's quote, which, if not worthy in My sight, shall be huffed."

NO --Micoolio101 (whinevandalism) 02:46, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

Please fix these problems in the page[edit source]

  1. The Wilde quote at the very top has an extra apostrophe where it shouldn't
  2. At the end of the Zero Wing section (japanese translates YOU!!) instead of "for great justice ... YOU" it ought to say "In Soviet Russia, great justice for YOU!!"

couldn't we just unprotect maybe? --Nerd42eMailTalkUnMetaWPediah2g2 17:32, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

Regarding articles in RR-quotes - we'll need a couple fixes[edit source]

[Adopts accent of nerd/anorak/capitalist scum (delete as applicable to homeland)] Yes, uh, I've noticed that when one writes a Russian Reversal in the, uh, correct form, huh huh, with italicised exclamation points at the end, uh, one in fact gets a left-over lonely ' symbol and a bold speech mark, huh, huh.

    • As a page that I started editing a mere seven days after I got here, RR holds a special place in my heart. This is why it hurts me so much to say that it doesn't stand a chance in hell of passing VFH in any form that resembles what it is now. It's a dead meme and, excluding the intro, it's essentially a series of lists. Radical change would be needed to keep in on VFH for more than seven votes (yours, mine, and five againsts). Radical change, too, would make me lose that special nostalgia that RR gives me (hey, a year ago is ages by Uncyc standards!).--Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 09:34, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Rewrite tag[edit source]

I don't see that this will help much here AAA. All you'll get is more people writing half a page of crap (which probably depends on the current page anyway) and subbing it in. Also, the basic idea is an Uncyc meme that is here to stay however many of the things we revert from pages (and I'm fond of it too!) I think RR is as good as it's going to get, although it could probably do with a bit of a deletion spree at some point. (Note to IPs: I did not just say "deletion". Take your finger off the button.) --Strange.PNG (but) Untrue  Whhhy?Whut?How? *Back from the dead* 07:51, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

I tagged it with rewrite because it needs to start again. Some parts of it are good, but most parts of it need fixing up. I was thinking of tagging it with {{fix}}, but decided that was too harsh.

Humble suggestion, with free motivational talk![edit source]

  • In Soviet Russia, president assassinate YOU!!
  • In Soviet Russia, government overthrow YOU!!


So assassinating presidents in America isn't necessarily good, but that might depend on the president. In Russia, assassination as a synonym for "genocide" works pretty well, I think, and is also bad.

The second one follows similar logic, but I don't think it's as good -- governments being overthrown are probably not good from anyone's perspective (unless you're an anarchist). I just threw it in for the hell of it.

The humour of the image is based on the fact that there are a lot of freaky people (kids) on the internet who do want to have sex with anime girls and this caption is addressing them. What else is hentai for? And, c'mon, the majority of these kids are American! I just think there's more irony to this image than to the church caption generator. :/

I hate you and your friend. Roman Dog Bird 20:38, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
you did the quotes wrong so i fixed them okay?--Masked-avenger 16:33, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

In Soviet Russia yourself fucks YOU!! - russian reversal on what i think of roman dog bird.

Roman Dog Bird and Masked Avenger, what the fuck are your problems? You have a problem with what we've written? Maybe cos its funnier than the shit you put out. Lostprophet mich 19:29, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

In Soviet Russia, Lostpropet mich disses you!!, etc. Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 20:03, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
No, dickhead, my problem is, the russian reversal isn't funny. Yeah, I'm totally jealous that somebody can take a phrase, and reverse it. WOW! THAT'S COMEDY GOLD! I bet more than half of you had never even heard of this "concept" until Family Guy made a reference to it (And I admit, I am one of those people). Idiots. Every single one of you. P.S: Why are you picking on Masked Avenger too? He only fixed them so that they looked like a proper quote. I don't see him saying "You suck" or anything. Roman Dog Bird 22:05, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
I'm 'bout to solve everythin' here shortly. Spacer.gifSpacer.gifPremierTomMayfairChe.png RedPhone.png Unsoc.png Hammer and sickle.png10:09, 25 July 2007

Well. It's probably best that you avoid going to Soviet Russia, then. Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 22:30, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
I don't know. I'm into kinky roleplayin' like that. Spacer.gifSpacer.gifPremierTomMayfairChe.png RedPhone.png Unsoc.png Hammer and sickle.png08:42, 21 July 2007

Stop coming up with your own. I don't understand how any of you (Random IP adresses and noobs, that is) actually find this to be funny. There's either something that I'm missing (Nah....) or you're all as stupid as I think you are. Roman Dog Bird 22:10, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

IPs love Russian Reversals, Wrestling and video game characters(who are all compared to Chuck Norris). The Oblong Lobster 22:20, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
