- xentronium 14y agoStrongly off-topic, but xenopatriotism is very widespread among Russians, especially emigrants. I wouldn't like for discussion to delve into that direction, but such opinion is often justified (obviously not now, though).
- nnq 14y agoThanks for teaching me a new word today ("xenopatriotism")... it even sounds funny and makes me think of the Alien's xenomorphs :) On the serious side of things, it's also helpful but maybe a bit to intense to characterize my feelings regarding my native country, but I definitely wouldn't mix this with judging software quality...
- xentronium 14y agoI'm fairly sure that's a made up word, but I like it for its succinctness and don't know any good synonyms.
