Explanation:
it's a sample of improper Ukrainian usage, poss. the imterlocuter is a surzhik speaker or - which is more likely - is a UA citizen who speaks\writes the official language poorely..

neutral  stasbetman: Я могу ошибаться, но, по-моему, вложить в уста "суржиконосца" - impart flavour of decent cigarettes - это "стилистический перебор":) Вам так не кажется? ++ свой вариант taste good я удалил - поторопился - аскер его уже знает и постить еще раз не имеет смы

  ->  кажется.. поправив меня своим вариантом, Вы тем самым поможете Крису. Для этого, как мне кажется, мы все и собрались?
neutral  gutbuster: вважаю, що memory fails the asker a lil bit, this is not surzhik but its poor imitation; the translation is even poorer, no offense meant, OK?

  -> Oh, thanks.. looking forward to seeing your luxurious translation, anyway, gutbuster. 'm sure it's going to be a rare flower. Spec thanks for mensioning the state of my memory :)
