Thank you for playing, comrade, but Russia is only good for size.

This post made me lol. Why? Because you assume OMG gives a damn, and you also assume he's referring to RL Russia. Which, given his position in the FT scene, he's probably not. Also, it's a comic. It's not supposed to be an accurate political piece. :P

Good sir, thou art hilarious!
we, unlike the bourgeoisie, have nothing to lose and therefore our expression will be the only honest one, our words will be the only challenging ones and our art will be the one revolutionary expression. We need new noise and new voices and new canvases to become something more than the last poets of a useless generation.

My nation is not like my nation page at all, it contradicts itself, we don't EVER eat kangaroos, that's just very sad. Also vegetarianism is compulsory yet it still says it's the nation's favourite main course and all and stuff.

Thank you for playing, comrade, but Russia is only good for size.

Did you notice that the US is missing a few states? Guess who owns them in our timeline.

As Rethan said, you are assuming I'm talking about RL Russia...too bad the kneejerk Russophobe reaction kicked in before you could actually look at things, eh?

But this isn't the place to argue about such things, so here's another comic.

Indeed, part of the point is that they are deliberately bad -- that's also why they don't say things like "Unfortunately, the Republic of Poland is at this time incapable of reaching points outside of the Earth's atmosphere." Unless humour can be derived from unusual verbosity in contrast to linguistic and aesthetic crudity, that is.

That meme works against the expectation of poor grammar of the LOLcat, however, which is related but still different. Good grammar itself is not humourous, but bad grammar can be used in a humourous context in this case it's mocking the poor grammar of Poles who visit /int/.
