Russian subs spotted off of U.S. coast

RUSS-IA...I know you've been feeling all left out and stuff ever since we decided you weren't REALLY a threat anymore, just more of an older sister who makes life difficult for us, but we have ENOUGH countries who-hate-us-and-want-us-dead to worry about! I mean it, there's NO reason to be hanging 200 miles of the U.S. Eastern seaboard in a nuclear sub now, is there?

EDIT: OH SNAP.

"'If Russia feels as though they want to take some of these old aircraft out of mothballs and get them flying again, that's their decision,' a State Department spokesman said then."

What a cock slap, State Department.

Yea, WTF just about covers it. Like, seriously, the Atlantic side? I mean, I can totally see a Russia sub hanging around America near Alaska, but on the east coast? What is the, the Hunt for Red October? Eesh!

They were just going for a little field trip... AROUND THE FUCKING WORLD. I know that the Biden comments were completely uncalled for (another wtf moment) but jeez. Let's all be friends and not play hide and go battleship in the Atlantic.

Yea, I'm sure Uncle Sam's all like "GUYS, I TOTALLY BLOCKED HER ON AIM AND F-LOCK EVERYTHING, BUT SHE GOT AROUND IT. SHE JUST KEEPS GOING ON AND ON ABOUT HOW I DON'T CARE ABOUT HER INTELLIGENCE ANYMORE, THAT ALL I EVER TALK ABOUT IS NORTH KOREA/IRAN. DUDE, WHY DOESN'T SHE GET THAT IT'S OVER??"

Wasn't there a movie about a Russian sub that broke down off the coast of the US and all they wanted was to get back home but the thing was just broken (And cause its a movie they had to have a pointless romance between a Russian soldier and a US woman)? THAT is what I thought of when I read your headline. Which just shows you how little Russia is a threat if the first impulse can be "Aww, lookie the cute widdle Russians, all lost and away from home."

Sometimes Russia makes me lol, but it's a bit of an uneasy lol really...

(mostly because I am not entirely convinced that Putin isn't secretly a James Bond villain and going to come for us all in the night. An idea that is both amusing and terrifying.)

I think 'uneasy lol' really covers it.
