We had a joke in the USSR. Young children are shown a painting titled “Lenin in Exile.” In the painting, there’s a tent in the woods. Lenin’s wife and one of his collaborators are lying in the tent, half-naked.
“But where’s Lenin?” one of the kids asks timidly.
“Please pay attention,” the teacher answers severely. “Lenin is in exile.”
P.S. To the person who downvoted, yes, I removed the names Krupskaya and Dzerzhinsky from the joke to make it more readable. Big bleeping deal. It’s OK to be a purist but you don’t need to be a bore.
