On June 19th 2022, russian ambassador Mikhail Ulyanov thought it was a good idea to argue with a bunch of Fellas on Twitter, who were mocking his obnoxious takes about the russian invasion of Ukraine. During the exchange, Ulyanov tweeted “You pronounced this nonsense, not me”, thus creating the first, and one of many NAFO mottos. Once the battle ended, late at night in Ulyanov’s timezone, he logged out, defeated, and took “a break” from Twitter. Fellas won, and nobody missed Ulyanov.

This great battle, first of many the Fellas fought and won on Twitter, was documented by Vice, in an article published on the 12th of July 2022.
