What does the “Eto razborka piterskaya” meme mean?

The phrase evokes the image of a settling of scores between rival gangs, a cliché associated with Saint Petersburg in Russian popular imagination, used to caption a filmed scene of conflict. People use it for any dispute, whether serious or completely trivial, to give it a theatrical, exaggerated edge. The comic gap comes from applying this grandiose expression to disputes that are often very mundane, like a shove or a petty squabble. It works as an ironic way to over-dramatize a minor conflict.

Where does the “Eto razborka piterskaya” meme come from?

The card dates the meme to 2010, a period of high popularity for the show and its clips on the Runet.
