But if I don't hold my hits, how will I ever grow out my chest hair?

I think it was a matter of exhaustion. They needed people there around the clock because things could go wrong at any time. You don't want the landing team to be responsible for all of the complicated scenarios that could go wrong after they've just pulled a 12-14 hour shift.

Was he joking about this answer?

I would probably know if I saw it or not. It'd be like "I know I saw this, but I have no idea what it's about."

To be fair, a lot of people have seen Memento and still say that. Lol.

I'm a little confused. You said you grew up in Kharkov.

I just wanted to clarify a bit further - are you saying that you are actually Ukrainian, but because you were living in the USSR at the time, the national language was still Russian and Ukrainian was not taught in schools, so you never learned how to speak Ukrainian since you immigrated to the U.S. shortly after the USSR collapsed (at which point, Ukrainians decided to speak Ukrainian more heavily and openly)?

If so, it's reasonable to assume that most Ukrainians still speak Russian (or at least understand it) reasonably well, right?
