Zanuda - lit. "droner". Universally defined by Russian women as "the type of guy that's easier to sleep with that to have explain to why you don't want to sleep with him." Also known as "the man who thinks that 'no' means 'keep talking'". Less specifically, a persistent, consummate bore. (Kudos to Julia B.)
A note for Americans and other civilized people: Zanudas flourish in societies with exaggerated codes of courtship or hospitality. They are the people that know that it's impolite to kick someone out or to call it a night, and will use that as an excuse to continue charming the ladies, sound off on their latest intellectual opinions, and otherwise drag out the experience of hanging out with them.
In the less specific usage, it's someone who won't pick up on the "We're done talking about that" cues and keep on droning on about whatever banal topic you've been trying to get off of for the last ten minutes.
Less specifically, and thus most widely used, it's simply that dude that won't shut up until he gets his way, whether it's a late-night trip to McDonald's or that game of strip poker you've been lamely joking about since the night got started.
