do you like pizza

Yes, my friend, I love pizza - just like Michelangelo from the Ninja Turtles.
In my country, pizza is quite expensive - around $10 (while the average salary is about $100–200), so I can’t afford it as often as I’d like.

why isn't the whole country fighting?
how big was the biggest ukrainian that you ever did see?

also, can you get fat free salad dressing over there? i hear it's mainly a burger thing.
This is quite a sensitive topic, and I’ll try to explain it the way I understand the situation myself.
The whole country is fighting, because absolutely everyone is in danger every day. Missiles and drones often hit cities and villages in different parts of Ukraine.
The heaviest fighting is currently taking place in the eastern part of the country.
Or did you mean something else?

The biggest burger I’ve ever tried or seen could fit in both my hands—around 15 centimeters in diameter, using the metric system.
Overall, McDonald’s makes the same burgers in every country.
Unfortunately, you’re mistaken in saying that burgers are the main fast food here—I believe hot dogs are more popular, just like in many other places.
That said, burgers are definitely part of the diet. With the modern pace of life, they’re convenient, though I don’t think they’re as popular here as they are abroad.
Yes, you can find most products here that exist elsewhere—for example, fat-free salad dressing, although it might be from a different brand.
And im from some barren scorching desert in nevada
Will the population, in your opinion, tolerate "giving" Ukranian land away in Trump's upcoming deal with Putin?

I understand, you’re curious why some men fight while others live a normal life?
That’s a difficult question for me to answer, because there are indeed some things I don’t fully understand.
As for DENDY, he probably has contractual obligations, and I’m not quite sure if he’s currently in Ukraine.
In any case, I can only confirm that yes, there are people who do not take part.

From the description, it sounds like my village in the Kherson region (which is in southern Ukraine).

I mean people are sitting and playing games. But maybe they are contributing in other ways and they are able to take some time off to enjoy themselves to destress?

I cannot speak for the entire nation, as many people have gone through terrible experiences and just want this to end at any cost.
My personal position is that it is wrong to reward aggression and destruction

Yes, you’re right. After COVID, people found a quiet place in the world of games and communication, and that’s how they distract themselves from reality.
Many contribute in this way by volunteering, looking for other caring people, and thus creating a group of acquaintances who have a lot in common.

Ukraine is considered to be the most corrupt nation in europe. How is that noticable for every day people?

This is noticeable at any income level—it doesn’t matter whether your income is $100 or $1,000.
It’s about the human factor and the remnants of old Soviet narratives.
For example, I recently broke my arm. If I need an X-ray immediately, I have to 'arrange something'; otherwise, I’ll have to wait a day or two (imagine that with a fracture).
You can avoid fines by knowing the right people.
This is punished strictly, and both the one who takes 'donations' and the one who offers them are held accountable.
There are many good people in the country, but unfortunately, this situation still exists.
As for comparisons with other countries—it feels like manipulation, because I honestly can’t imagine how you could collect reliable statistics on this.
