Because I am Russian, I would like to talk a little bit about my life, but rather on what was happening in our country and where something is happening now. In our minds there is such a definition, as the Kazan phenomenon sometimes the phenomenon of Russia. This is the description of the people about whom I would like to tell.
Gopnik, also gopas, gopari - a slang word of our language, indicating the representatives of the urban strata of low social status, undereducated, an aggressive young people having criminal traits of behavior, often originating from dysfunctional families and uniting on the basis of counterculture. The term is widely used in Russia and the former Soviet Union since the end of the twentieth century.
Appearance Gopnik is these Russian guys like "give him an inch and they will take a mile" with bad skin and a dull party, which affects only one thought, "Go fuck youself!"
For these guys more comfortable squatting than standing. But most importantly, it is the last males on the planet Earth, which manage to wear leather caps gangster of the 1920s with a glamor - all other such caps are similar except that queers from drama school, rehearsing some musical - the newspaper writes.
Their weapons - our fear
Our fear of what we do not know the rules, which acts "that" world. But we certainly respect them. Because it is the rules of strong - concept. We certainly accept them, but do not know their principles and norms. We accept the rules without knowing them.
Naturally, the more or less "nablatykany" freak (you can compare with steep guys who are not afraid of anything, and just send the police), being even puny income, knowing a couple of "tricks" to beat you in a jiffy. Because you agreed to play by his rules. A person who voluntarily agreed to play by the rules, he does not know, it is called the "loh" (sucker on which you can get money).
There are many films that tell about the history of these guys. That's like one of them (documentary)
