“Two Ugly People” (Bill)

My colleague, from Russian Germans, told me that from childhood I felt how in western Ukraine they are being treated negatively toward the Russians.
I was surprised how she, having lived her whole life in Omsk, could feel it. It turns out at the age of 12 this chicken with a friend was on a tour in Lviv. Walking around the city, they decided to find out the time from the local uncle, and he did not answer the question "which hour", but called them "two wretches".
And now, 30 years later, I had to explain to her that “2 hours” is “2 hours” and not an insult.
