@tradingmaster: You're wrong. We are here the same people as everyone else, got sense of humour.
(The other thing is that almost nobody (!!) in Russia knows that tetris is russian game o_O)

you know who live in Russia can understand it like a bad thinking about Russian people. But i understood that - it is funny and humoristic, because tetris atb real you can play in real life

For people who doesn't understand, when a tetris line is formed, the line gets deleted.

Is it just me, or do others start to hear the Tetris music play in their heads when they realize what this one is parodying?

It appears that the businessman on the left had a directional charge suitcase bomb designed to go off at knee level, thus you see the results when it went off prematurely. Unfortunately a very common occurrence in Moscow.

I'm guessing this was in the manuals too. @aceofscarabs oh my bad, you're right. See above. over 2 years ago
@Seriously?: Some people usually try to understand the comic before looking at the author's comment at the bottom. There's no need to act better than anyone...
Seriously?

It took some people "a moment" to get the joke?
Even though the joke gets explained right below the comic? Christ no wonder you guys find this good

In a sense Tetris is like pharaon's curse - soviet uberweapon, that transcends even the country, in which it was created. It will be main weapon of next Intergalactic War.

OK before anyone makes up any more stupid names, the blocks are called:
Z S O I T L and REVERSE L.

What would happen if you got a tetris? would they all transcend this planar existence in an epic flash created from Tetris God himself? bah, screw it. they'd explode like watermelon under gallagher.

And at first, I thought it was because a bus hit them.
Silly video game logic.

@Batabii: Ah, there's the misunderstanding then. Jo's commentary of the page is in the main page rather than this comments page. (Honestly, I think Jo's commentary should also pop up here if people read the pages in the comments page than the main one.)

@A Bag of Tetris-Pieces: (Damnit!)
Can I have a long one please? Why must these infernal blocks tease?

Also, if you wanted to make an even more vague Tetris joke, you should have included the palace taking of like a rocket in the background of the last panel. XP

You know, I instantly knew what this was about at the first panel. I grew up watching my mother obsessively play Tetris, and that palace has been burned into my brain.
Still, what a way to go. XD

@Gentlemanne w/ Hats: In Soviet Russia, Hats wear Gentlemanne. In Nerf Now, Tetris explode legs.

Oh... My... Dog...
That is the best thing ever. Though, it really needs your comment on the bottom to make sense, because I'm a little slow.

I still don't get it. Can someone explain this to a simpleton? XD

@Frank: Sometimes it seems that to move blocks is fine. And the lines will be formed as they fall...

Only took me a second to get it. Nice one.
I'd image that Russian bus drivers hate it when this happens.

Who else started singing the Tetris theme music when they got to the last panel?

Wow I can't believe how clever that is. I actually had to think for a second

This is the kind of cleverness I expect of this comic. Well done, took me a little while to get.

For some reason I thought the joke was "In Soviet Russia, bus ride you", thus the bus drove by and ran them over, but the Tetris thing is even funnier

This is why Heavy never takes the bus.

@Batabii: It's not that vague. I mean Jo even says Tetris right there in the comments at the bottom.

@78uh: The people are Tetris pieces, and when a line is filled in Tetris, what happens?
