maybe i should have explained it in post itself haha
Well there are a lot of forms of pet-names in russian and all of them usually have different sense-feelings?
Vitya is a colloquial form of a name Victor that can be used by friends or colleagues of the same age/older or generally older people he knows. Or generally in the informal situations.
Viten’ka is diminutive form that can be used by family or really close people/lover.
Vityanya is also colloquial form but it can be used(maybe! if person is okay with that) only by close friends and it’s kinda disrespectful, very informal and unsophisticated.
Vit’yok same as Vityanya but twice as informal and a little rude. It also has a very strong slav/gopnik vibe as was pointed out in replies. So that makes sense for our Victor to be offended.
There are great posts about that: 12 They are way better than my explanation and i really recommend reading them if you’re interested in this subject!
I know nothing about alcohol, but uh… does this mean that Yuuri isn’t a lightweight and just drank too much?
The alcohol content of a glass of champagne is 12% alcohol by volume, which is fairly high for a wine related beverage, and most champagne flutes will hold about 6 ounces (~177 ml). Most pours of champagne, especially at a big party, will only be 4 ounces (~118 ml) to let the bubbles rise and control cost, etc.
Let’s assume these are 4 ounce (~118 ml) pours. Yuuri drank 16 of these, which is 64 ounces, or a gallon. That’s roughly ~2 liters of alcohol. Even for a heavyweight, drinking so much will heavily inebriate you, if not make you completely sick.
So I feel like it’s safe to say Yuuri got, in layman’s terms, completely shit faced drunk.
So @tamariini pointed out that Phichit is holding his
bronze hamster, and I didn’t think much of it, but…
HE LITERALLY HAS A GOLD, SILVER, AND BRONZE ASSORTMENT OF
HAMSTERS??? aRE YOU FUCKING WITH ME RIGHT NOW. IS IT REALLY THAT DEEP KUBO??? CUZ I AM SHITTING BRICKS RN LAUGHING AT THIS POSSIBILITY. IF PHICHIT ENDS UP WITH BRONZE I’M GOING TO VOMIT OUT OF SHEER HILARITY
And this actually correlates with my other theory about the rankings already being shown to us in the final OP:
I had no idea that i’d get so balls-deep into yuri on ice that i
would believe hamster meta but with the creators of this show, who even fucking
knows anymore smh
EDIT: Adding onto this, a few people have pointed out that Phichit’s shoulders are actually positioned like a podium! Gold on top, silver raised slightly above bronze…What the actual fuck are you tRYING TO DO TO ME, KUBO??? I TOLD MYSELF I WOULD NEVER GET DRAGGED INTO THIS HEAVY-ASS ANALYSIS BULLSHIT THEY’RE HAMSTERS THEY ARE FUCKING HAMSTERS FOR THE SAKE OF ALL THINGS HOLY WHY AM I STILL LOOKING AT THIS??
