i have found these photos here. vachagan made them back in the winter 2014.
that was the next day after a car crash accident. in front of me there were two girls and one guy from azerbaidjan. vachagan was asking them about differences and similarities between azerbaidjani and turkish language. they said that formerly they were watching movies on tv or in cinema in russian, they were receiving films from russia. now they receive films from turkey, with turkish translations. she said, when the film comes to the end i realize that i didn’t even notice that it was in turkish, not in azerbaidjani.
we also asked them about the orthography. she answered that they’ve changed orthography 5 times - they were writing with arabic letters, then, during short independence in 1918-20 in latin letters, then cyrillic letters, then now again latin. she said “our president gave a promise that in two years all books will be reprinted with the new orthography”. “and, did they manage to reprint them?” - i have asked. “no” - she answered.
also she said very interesting and typical thing for someone from a country with authoritarian regime: she said she does not see any other good candidate rather than their ilham aliyev. she said “if not him - then who?”. well, isn’t it obvious that he did everything for you to think like that, my dear?
then they started to ask us about the language. they’ve said “we know there are eastern and western armenian languages. do you understand each other? how do you live in one small country and speak two languages?”
i have answered, that well, languages do not differ that much, and we perfectly understand each other, except for a couple of words that may have a bit different meaning. and i have added, that western armenian is spoken in the west only - in europe, usa, latin america. not in armenia as a rule.
and she asked naively - “why?” i hate mentioning the “genocide” word and the theme, so i remained silent for some time.
then the azerbaidjani guy who sat next to her, a guy in a shirt with some horizontal fur line on it, he smiled happily and started to whisper something in her ear. his face exprecced great satisfaction.
she said “ah, i understand”.

— Yes, you can, but… well, it depends from her age.
— You mean, if she’s young, and has no experience, she might fall in love with me?
— No, no way, if she’s young. But if she’s old, and desperate to find…

— I do not believe in any peace agreement. I do not trust Azerbaijanis. It was always the same for the last 1000 years.

You just see notification, you have to click on it to get the message. — you can send a message to an exact client of your contact - to the phone or to the desktop. — i love sounds.

My German friend, when he lives in Yerevan, rents a room in some family apartment. it’s not only cheaper, but also he is able to socialize and understand locals better.
Last time he was renting a room in the flat of the elderly couple of musicians. they were speaking Russian, and were cursing Putin every day. He was asking, how it’s possible.
— Why, aren’t there people in Russia who disagree with his politics? — asked I and answered myself — Of course there are. Also, they speak Russian because educated people had to know well the language of the empire, and it was becoming a standard, default language for the educated class. it’s normal that educated people understand who is Putin, and don’t like him.
other time our German friend said:
— I’ve got acquainted with Armenian family from diaspora, from LA. They left Armenia in early eighties, but they look like stereotypical Americans - fat, they subsist hamburgers and they drink coca-cola. They were very thankful to Russia, they said: “Russia gave Armenians land to live and breed”.
He recounted it with small sparks in his eyes, wondering how we’ll react. i wanted to start explaining that it might be typical for Armenians who left in early eighties, and why. But my friend was unable to resist, and he shouted:
— it’s bullshit!
Now our German friend rents a room at the old woman’s apartment, previously she was soviet engineer. now she does “alternative medicine”. One of her patients has cancer and she believes that she can cure him with her movements. “When i awake, and see someone lays in the kitchen, i realize i cannot get a cup of water” - complains our friend. He also says that this elderly woman loves Putin.
— Why not? — said my local friend — Putin also can be considered as “alternative medicine”.

one of my colleagues told how he was poisoning ants at his “dacha”. i said:
— i’ve read a story about it by Levon Khechoian.
— who is he?
— he recently died, i guess he grown up in the village. he was writing sometimes mystic stories, very often about cruelty, and i believe he has a line about betrayal in almost every his work.
— well, I don’t consider killing ants as a cruelty. — he said.
— why?
— yes, when I was a child, we were killing a lot of them. i was doing carpet bombings, used burning plastic bottles, bulldozed their anthills with my feet, and was making crystal coffins. do you know what’s that?
— no.
— when you put a glass over ant and hit it with the rock.
here chief said:
— well, as we can see, memory about medieval inquisition is still alive.
— yes, — he said proudly, — I was probably one of them in my former lives.
needless to say, he also adores and respects Putin and Stalin, he’s homophobic, and he’s a sexist. Exactly as RAW wrote.

Three young pupils (12-14 years old) came and sat to the table near us. They were talking about “coconuts”, referring to “Americans”. Because “Americos” leads to “Kokos”, which is “coconut” in Russian. They were discussing how Russia and Russians are superior, and better than USA and Americats in every aspect. In sports, in military, just everywhere. And they were repeating this “coconuts” often.
We saw them at the Subway cafeteria. They were eating Subway sandwiches and drinking Coca-Cola.

Burgomaster. All right. What’s the mood around town? Warden. Quiet. But they are still writing. Burgomaster. Writing what? Warden. Letter “L” on the walls. That means Lancelot. Burgomaster. Nonsense! “L” means - “Love the president”. Warden. I see. So, we don’t detain those who are writing? Burgomaster. Are you kidding? Of course we do. What else do they write? Warden. Embarrassing to say. The president is scum. His son is a crook. The president… (giggles) Can’t really repeat the expression, sir. But mostly they write the “L”. Burgomaster. Morons. What do they want with that Lancelot anyway? Any news about him, while we’re on the subject? Warden. Not a word. Burgomaster. Did you interrogate the birds? Warden. Uh-huh. Burgomaster. All of them? Warden. Uh-huh. See this mark? That’s eagle’s present. Got me right in the ear. Burgomaster. And what are they saying? Warden. They say they didn’t see Lancelot. Only the parrot agrees. You’re like: “Have you seen him?” And he’s like: “Seen him”. You’re like: “You saw Lancelot?” And he’s like: “Saw Lancelot.” Well, you know what kind of bird the parrot is. Burgomaster. What about the snakes? Warden. Those would have slithered in themselves if they smelled anything. They’re on our side. And relatives to the deceased to boot. But they don’t. Burgomaster. The fish? Warden. Not a peep. Burgomaster. Maybe they know something? Warden. Nope. We had our scientists look into their eyes, and they confirm - those guys know nothing. In short Lancelot, also known as St. George, also known as Perseus, named differently in each country, has yet to be located. Burgomaster. Screw him, then.

Jig’s series of questions are strongly gender-marked. She uses a proportionately large number of tag-end questions: “wasn’t it?”, “isn’t it?” (Dietrich). She also uses circular and vaguely generalized evaluations of their activities rather than direct statementns— “that’s all we do”— the goal of her conversation being consensus.
