Wednesday was a pretty exciting time in the Afflictor.com offices in Brooklyn. It was on that fateful day that the Russian Federation joined Afflictor Nation, as our site had its first visitor from one of that country’s citizens. Maybe Mother Russia was whiling away the time during a bitterly cold winter by reading our nonsense. But wait a minute. Isn’t Russia the birthplace of many great writers? Why would any of its people need to read Afflictor.com at all? Is something causing a shortage of free-thinking scribes there? Truly puzzling. Well, welcome to Afflictor Nation!
