    I am pretty sure they are tomatoes

  2. bob says:

    or space alien eggs? o_O

  3. Mich says:

    In soviet Russia oranges (or tomato) sell you.

  4. Malk says:

    Those are tangerines, you slowpokes. And this isn’t Moscow, since there is no such mountain there.

  5. Bryonia says:

    I’m surprised it doesn’t have a sunroof for easy loading.

    Maybe it’s just the camera angle, but those tires look oddly rough and ragged.

  6. Damo says:

    Suspect it’s Azerbaijan. I’ve seen cars fillled with fruit tooling around the streets of Baku and the old Lada Riva is still a very popular car there.

  7. raznarukus says:

    Orange you glad I didnt say Burning Man?

  8. bob says:

    I found a great dating site_____celebcupid.com______where you have the opportunity dreaming about dating a millionaire and make it true! u dont have to be a millionaire.but u can meet one. I thought everyone needed to meet some miracle after all the terrible stuff in the news and the economy___________________

  9. Bryonia says:

    The keyloggers have found us. Where is my report button???

  10. pig in the city says:

    @bob
    bob… what you say is totally true.

    ive been looking for a handsome billionare to selttle down with for many years now, and now i think my prayers have been answered.

    i mean, it is deffently not unrealistic that billionares, who would have women throwing themselves on them, need to find girls (or guys, i dont discriminate) on the interwebs.

  11. Cbass says:

    i’m an orange addict….i should probably move to moscow :D

  12. chinamatt says:

    I guess that works instead of buying an air freshener. But wouldn’t the air freshener be cheaper?

  13. Anna Rexia says:

    @chinamatt
    Yes, but not as fresh and strong, and definitely not as awesome!

  14. James says:

    Ah orange runner, just like the moonshine runners only different…

  15. Identity Crisis says:

    raznarukus :Orange you glad I didnt say Burning Man?

  16. Identity Crisis says:

    Dammit….

    To Raz…comment win!

  17. Anila says:

    The landscape resembles that of Russia, as does the number plate, and the mountain can be explained by the fact that wherever this picture was taken, it was certainly not IN THE CENTRE OF MOSCOW, but on the outskirts, or perhaps even simply in the Moscow region. Russia is not an absolutely flat country. It has some breast.
    Lada is also a popular Russian car brand.
    As for oranges being distributed on the black market, it very plausible, because in Russia, basically everything you can buy has come from black market.
    These oranges are most likely illegaly imported from Africa, or the country of Morocco, as oranges from Morocco are most popular with the Russian people.
    Come to think of it, if this is Russia, this almost certainly would be Moscow, because people who work in the markets of small towns take weekly trips to Moscow to buy their products, so a sale like this would be ideal for the market-stall keeper, to buy in mass, and probably at a convenient price too.

    Malk :

    Silly Malk, don’t you know that any place which is obviously not America is Russia. And personally, I think they’re tangelos.

    @me
    Simpsons reference win.

    No. DIE. We need a report button, or a troll squad.

  21. Goldie says:

    I think they may be persimmons.

  22. Octopocks says:

    Richard Persimmons!

  23. Octopocks says:

    Gene Persimmons?

  24. buster says:

    oh for the love of three thousand oranges… prokofiev would be pleased.

    see what i did there?

  25. Malk says:

    @The What Now?
    It is enough to know that Moscow and Moscow region are both located in the middle of East European (Russian) Plain, which is quite flat. Also, I live close to Moscow, so I know that the highest point in Moscow is, probably, Sparrow Hills (wikipedia says this is their english name), that are not that high and can’t be seen from any place with landscape such as one on the picture. As Damo said, it is most likely somewhere near Azerbaijan or Georgia, you can always get a f*ckload of tangerines there any time of the year.

    You’re somewhat exaggerating… to put it mildly.

  27. ted says:

    what happens if you have to do an emergency stop?

  28. Goldie says:

    ted :
    what happens if you have to do an emergency stop?

    …Orange or Persimmon or Tangerine Julius?

  29. ninja face says:

    if you crash into a wall do you think the fruit would sail through the windsceen of just cover it with juice?

  30. Business101 says:

    Man, people in Moscow must REALLY like their oranges lol!

  31. bugloy says:

    I’m sure it’s moscow
    moscow’s the only pkace in the world where they don’t have carton boxes

  32. UrM0M says:

    I give you 200 Dollars American for the red car

  33. ilyha says:

    Not Moscow

  34. Bill says:

    @Mich

    In Soviet Russia, phrases overuse you.

  35. stevie w says:

    @The What Now?
    Whichever they are, they must be fighting the scurvy epidemic!!!!

  36. Sean Duggan says:

    Having helped buy cherries off of the black market when on an exchange trip to Russia a decade ago, I can say this isn’t terribly implausible. Nothing like your host mother leading you down an alley to where there’s an open truck filled with cherries with two guys with machine guys guarding it…

  37. ksu says:

    Can’t you see it’s not Moscow?

  38. Moscow says:

    Сrazzzzzy people! Study geography!

  39. BoneFish says:

    thats so photoshoped

  40. don says:

    affording a paint job one orange at a time

  41. Astrid says:

    @Sean Duggan
    Actually, I live in downtown Toronto (St Jamestown) and have seen the whole minivan-men with guns-cherries combo a couple of times, plus someone who had a cube van full of mangoes. The cherries were pretty good….

  42. skipbmf says:

    The stupid name of a post for even more boring photo

  43. Russia says:

    Ебать вас всех в рот пиндосов грёбанных!
    Если вы в Москве не были то хоть в инете посмотрите, чурки!

    Russia fucks you!

  44. XepOk says:

    Ахаха, стопудово Москва:D А горы на горизонте это мелочи…

  45. CC says:

    OKAY, OKAY, mass kidnapping and killing of people were alright, but DAMNIT, the KBG has gone TOO FAR.

  46. comrade shifty says:

    i work my entire life selling oranges in exchange for car. now car only holds oranges.

  47. Hardest Riddle says:
