Vladimir Putin 2018 Calendar

Have you gotten your 2018 calendars? I got my FREE calendars from our local electric company. It's a plain and simple monthly calendar with bold letters and numbers. Place strategically in a room, it is very much appreciated by someone with poor eyesights like me. But some people prefer more decorative or personalized type. Most world leaders have big ego's like rock stars, prima donna actors or singers. But some would go the extra length to promote themselves into an icon or cult (like North Korea's Kim Jong-un). No I'm not talking about Donald Trump but his silent partner in crime, Vladimir Putin. You can go to Amazon and order a 2018 Putin calendar for $14.98 Interested or curious what's inside? It shows him bare-chested in the outdoors with a hunting rifle, riding a Harley with a group of bikers, hugging leopards, showing off his martial arts skill...etc..etc. Just your normal everyday "fearless but gentle great leader" photo ops. Trump must be green with envy. He may be surrounded with beautiful women and gold gilded surroundings but he can't bare his chest like Putin. The closest he ever got to partly show his physique was that photo of him swinging a golf club with his protruding butt. (For those who insist on correct English syntax, no it wasn't his butt swinging the golf club). *...with his butt protruding. OK? So what kind of calendar do you have for 2018?
?It's still summer. But the Putin 2018 calendar is already in the shops in Russia.?

I would suggest also to Putin to cover his chest, he is not more young and it show, but he loves those "macho" photos. Surely in his country he does not risk to be sued by women as it is happening in the United States.

that's just plain too funny. I don't keep calendars anymore, I have a PC or else my phone to let me know what day it is ..... and usually I don't care anyway, I make no plans to do anything so why worry, right?

Putin or the discussion? If it was the former just be thankful you live in the good old USA where you can ridicule your president safe in the thought that you are protected by the 1st amendment. In Russia you get to visit the infamous Lubyanka. If the number of comments on this post is any indication, you're right. Calendars are outmoded.

Yeah, nothing says "do svidánija" like a shirtless Vlad! My calendar is a religious one.

I always buy at least three calendars to hang around my apartment. I put one in the kitchen, and I write my appointment dates on that one. Then a small one next to my desk in my office, so I can keep track of what day it is. And one in my bedroom, also so I can know what day it is, and to mark down other things. So far I have only gotten two for 2018 -- a small kitten calendar for my office, and a cupcake calendar for my bedroom. I have a promotional code for a free calendar from Shutterfly, and I keep meaning to design a calendar to hang in my kitchen. But I haven't decided what kind of calendar I want to make yet. Last year I made a Peanuts (Charlie Brown and Snoopy) calendar. As for the Putin calendar...I think I'll pass. Nice booger in April, though.

@josie_ I did end up putting that one in the kitchen. Now I can't lay in bed dreaming of eating cupcakes. The kitten one went in my bedroom instead.

Shouldn't the cupcake calendar be in the kitchen? Unless of course you have a thing for cupcakes and they somehow help in a stress-free sleep. That's taking the comfort in "comfort food" up to the next level.

Quotes are a good choice. A sort of daily motivational mantra.

And I was thinking that the cult of personality had ended with Stalin in Russia! A Trump calendar would be more simple : January : Trump playing at Trump International Golf Course, West Palm February : Trump playing at Trump World Golf Club, Dubai March : Trump playing at Trump National Golf Club, Bedminster April : Trump playing at Trump National Golf Club, Charlotte etc It would be a delight for golf amateurs.

@josie_ He does not build them, but they exist, which is probably worse. Here a photo of Ban Ki Moon, a previous UN Secretary-General near a bronze statue of Putin of a pure former USSR style, taken in Moscow in 2010.

@topffer _It appears he has other statues including a bust portraying him as a Roman emperor. I had no idea.

@josie_ Very emblematic, all Roman emperors were living gods, and there was a cult given to the emperor.

Despite the claim by Russian propaganda that these calendars are best sellers, they're not. Ordinary Russians largely ignore these calendars, preferring those with religious motif.

You'd have to have a pretty sick sense of humor to Have a Putin Calendar in your house. I think I'll order mine later in the day.

You can hang it in the garage instead. Would have been useful in an outhouse when one run out of toilet paper.

@josie_ right, we never buy calendars. the stores here (like the gasoline station) gave me a 2018 calendar and it has big numbers, when i can cross a date for my Coumadin schedule.
