Holy shit I love cookies perfect. And I totally feel you--I am studiously ignoring my 2 long fics from other fandoms that are currently glaring at me. And the long list of WIP prompts....

Ohhh boy I haven’t been in this fandom long enough to feel the dearth but OOF I feel you. 💪I will do the thing

Sorry it took me so long to answer this! The thing is that while I can understand and somewhat speak Russian, I never learned how to write and spell stuff, so I had to get my dad to tell me how to spell this.

“Судью на мыло!” [roughly pronounced: Sudju na milo] is what I’ve been saying this weekend, and apparently, it’s a well-known saying in Russia. It’s not entirely correct in this case though, since “Судью” is the singular form, so it actually means “Make the judge into soap!”, not “the judges”.

The plural form “Make the judges into soap!” would be “Судей на мыло!” [roughly pronounced: Sudeij na milo].

Maybe a more accurate translation would be “Make soap out of the judge/judges!” – The history behind this phrase is that bones and remains of dead animals used to be made into soap because they weren’t useful for anything else. And then at some point, fans of sports like football and ice hockey (where there’s only one judge) started to say “Судью на мыло!” (“Make the judge into soap!”) whenever they didn’t agree with a judging decision. So that’s where it comes from, and why my dad had the idea to apply it to figure skating – even though you’d technically have to change it to the plural form since there’s multiple judges.

I really love this saying – I think it’s my new favourite Russian phrase – and I’m going to keep saying it when the judges mess up :D
