Title: Russian White Lies
Post by: Dalton on November 20, 2001, 05:00:00 AM
Posters:

Quit some time ago there was a thread about the little white lies that russian women or men tell. There was a name for these white lies and I can't remember what that name was.

I just finished a 2 hour conversation with my fiancee and I tried to tell her about the white lies that I know she is telling but I couldn't quote the russian name.

Need help. Thanks

Just in case you are wondering, it was all in good fun.
