'Roadside Picnic' a classic sci-fi novel

Well this could also be a cultural/language difference. We, Russians, are sometimes perceived as rude, because our language doesn’t require a lot of speech patterns which make you sound polite, to be polite. And some will be lost in translation, as for example we have Vi (Вы, polite form of “you”) and Ti (Ты, a you for close friends, buddies, and equals, but rude for people you are not acquainted with).
