    It was very funny the first time I was in Austria and the Saturday test sirens went off (this is a thing in Austria. Every Saturday they blow all the air raid sirens just in case they’re one day invaded) and one of the Austrian teens jumped up and yelled “fuck! The Russians are here!” to screw with the foreigners who didn’t know about the tests, but became much less funny when I realised the Austrians genuinely thought Russia was on the brink of invading at all times.
