Public Relations: Padonki.

Padonki.


Word came from Russian language.
Well-known in Russian and American internet.
Padonki = riff-raff, scoundrel, scum.

It is very usual and very interesting kind of posting style on the forum.
Padonki - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Padonki
Usually the Padonki are the members who are identifying themself as the riff-raff (just as the joke) to post the subj with good meaning but with the changing of the words spelling.

Author of this term spreading/distribution (Padonki) is american from Washington, D.C. When in livejournal one Russian made long post in Padonki way in Russian language so scottishtiger (it is username of this guy) asked "I cannot read that text. Please speak English. I know you that you are bi-lingual. After all, aren't ALL foreigners?". One Russian said that it is "Albanian language". After that it was explained that it is Lolcat language ... After that many websites with teaching "Albanian" proposals were created - real english language courses for English natives about this slang language.

Most often the Padonki are using Internet meme language http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_meme and and Lolcat language   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lolspeak

In some countries there are some criminal laws against Padonki language. By the way some famous people are still using it. For example, some people say that Madonna in her journal used it, and some poiltic is making the speech in the way as "I am Padonki riff-raff - same with you all".

So, the Padonki almost lost the initial negativity and for now: it is simple but very hard flooding.
