Internet cafes in the former USSR. Are great. they are the only places where you can find all sorts of degenerates in a single room. Gamers, nerds, 12 year old kids watching the latest porn vids, and a shit ton of girls chatting with their potential "husbands" - most likely losers from new zealand, england, ohio, etc. Following an intensi...
