Why do Russians make fun of Omsk? Why is it bad compared to Perm or Ufa or other Russian cities of similar size? It has a nice large beach in the summer, on the river.

Omsk is a state of mind, it's Russia of Russia
Omsk has many interesting memorials, such as this one by the train station.
What is that brown shit stream on the right?
You can just look at the pictures.

those things you see on beach are dead bodies
Omsk had a major drug problem in 90s, so Omsk people are memed as being high all the time.
Why are Russians so obsessed with ugly colours like this one? Or the shiny bland green roofs on the first pic? It's an atrocity
They try to copy Russian classical style.
But why choose colour that looks like it was found in the insides of Chernobyl reactor?!
Because they have no taste at all. Our modern architecture is absolutely disgusting.
Bce кaк oдин Oмичи, кoтopых я вcтpeтил в apмии были мyдилaми, кoтopыe вceгдa вopoвaли и пытaлиcь кoгo нибyдь нaeбaть.
Пoчeмy тaк?
What is here (x) ?
Mass graves and nuclear waste
Oh I thought was the local Falkland Islands Memorial Area
I'd fug that castle though
>compared to Perm or Ufa
lol. None compares Omsk to Perm or Ufa.
Omsk is compared to European Russian cities.
Perm is an industrial shithole from the Ural. Ufa is not even ethnic Russian city.
We make fun of Omsk because it's ethnic Russian and some ridiculous shit happens in there all the time.
And it's not that ugly since it's not industrial.
It's pretty similar to Czech architecture from 90's
Fun fact - in the summer, you can sail from Moscow to Omsk through a series of rivers and the Arctic Ocean. It's a long route, but some people do it.
A lot of our buildings like this were also built in 90-00's. Mostly, it's malls, offices and small business buildings. But they continue to build this shit even now.
you can do it with the most of cities
The major reason for it becoming a meme was some sculptor/artist's reign over the whole city for a several years. That guy was a big friend of city major and the major was a big fun of guy's art. So the sculptor spend his days in decorating Omsk with all kind of controversary modern art stuff like giant red pixelated statues or even more giant palm in the middle of the city square.
Jokes about drug users are overexagerrated though. St.Petersburg was and is the only true russian capital of junkies.
