My favorite is along similar lines: A Russian and an American bond in the afterlife while waiting to find out where they are headed. Eventually Satan shows up and says, "bad news, you both are going to hell, but you can choose Russian hell or American hell." "What's the difference?" they ask. 'Well, says Satan. 'In American hell you have to eat a shovel load of shit once per day. The rest of your time is your own. In Russian hell you have to eat two shovel loads of shit, and the rest of your time is your own." "That seems easy," says the American, "I choose American hell." And in a flash he is gone. Years later, he finds a gap in the wall dividing the two hells and is able to talk to his Russian friend. 'Why on earth did you pick Russian hell? American hell is just great. We eat our shovel load of shit each day and then we're free to do what we want." "Comrade," replies the Russian, "in Russian hell, most days there is no shit to eat, and when there is, there is no shovel."
