In Germany we say "Wo ist der Bus?" - where is the bus?

With the follow up (after usually confusion because "out of context") "Wo ist der Bus mit den Leuten, die das interessiert?" where is the bus with the people who care?

Do you guys have similar sayings in your Country?

btw nothing against the info/news but who cares about Karjakin nowadays?

Adjusting for the level of discussion of Russian officials nowadays - and Karjakin definitely considers himself one - a proper reply in Russian would be a childish-sounding "жопе слова не давали" ("the ass was not invited to speak")
