Literally!

Gah. I can't even figure out what half of that's supposed to say. Faux-cyrillic used to be kind of interesting; now that I can read actual cyrillic, it just makes me unreasonably angry.

It's just Latin letters in a pseudo-cyrillic font. Easy enough to read, but just seems pointless.
I didn't find learning cyrillic all that difficult. As an engineer, at least half the letters were already known to me in greek forms.

And let us not even mention that Khatchaturian was Armenian, a language not even written in Cyrillic!
