I nominate Ireland.

NASTY KO! .

Our problem is our expectations. We apotheosize our volk, and are disappointed when "We as a people" act human. What can I say? There are legitimate criticisms to be made of our communities, but it is difficult to separate the legitimate from the illegitimate when we hold ourselves in unworldly regards.

Machismo, pseudo-sophistication, pseudo-chivalry, bravado, condescending paternalism. I've experienced a lot of the scenarios you described, and I've conquered every one of them. When people realize that you aren't going to change, they accept you as is, and learn to understand you.

We need more Armenians to play Eve Online.

Psychedelic goodness.

Many thanks Harut! I found the song by Harut. It is titled "Hanik ninar." And I also discovered that "Seghan batsem shusherov" was the same song as "Hanik ninar." Haha, what luck. Both are great songs. And to be honest, I also thought the song was in some Turkish language after hearing the opening of it. I did pick up the words "im yari" and became confused. I showed it to a Hayastantsi friend of mine and he basically said that same thing Harut said; that it was Armenian, but sung in Tatul's style. Thanks again Harut.

Tatul Avoyan Any idea?

It's a good thing I own two then, .

Armenians are definitely taking center stage this season. And the first episode was awesome. This season is going to be great!

, . Also, anyone know the name of the song being played in the background?

It appears that some individuals amongst us need to grow a pair. He should be applauded for staging a public protest against politicking in sporting events, specially given the history of the IOC. Here is an individual who has dedicated most of his life to training in order to a champion in a sport that has a history of over 2700 years, only to be denied by an iniquitous organization. Here is for Ara, :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: .

Studying law, and hoping to find employment at the UN, State Department, CIA, or FBI (in that order).

I am impressed by these Aussies, as they exhibited a high degree of historical knowledge by including Nakhijevan as a part of Armenia, !

I saw the thread title, then saw that it was in the religion section, and I immediately thought Bach, all while listening to Bach (Goldberg Variations) .

Beautiful goal! Also, why is it that I have come across more Armenians named Hamlet than Americans and Brits combined, .

What percentage of Armenians living in the ROA are the grandchildren, or great-grandchildren of Western Armenians?

Minister Hasmik Poghosyan, Turkey is to the West.

That classification is spot on, .

As = Praise Tvadz = Given Astvadz = The One Who is Given Praise.

Hellektor, even if we put aside the moral considerations, and consider the practical consequences of your proposed actions, it would be political folly to do what you have suggested.

The statue of David of Sasoon is a beauty.

Because we hold them in contempt for what they have committed. Why would we imitate reprobate people, people who we despise? We should preserve the righteousness of our cause, not debase it!

Some of the attitudes and behaviors exhibited by Armenians today are no different than those exhibited by the Young Turks nearly a 100 years ago.
