Food / Mushroom Picking Parties (Poland tradition) [74]

In Poland it's known as "podgrzybek brunatny".

Yeah, I read it in Polish wiki. :) Brunatny=brown?

Why do you call it Polish mushroom?

I'm not sure about the ethimology. That probably somehow related to to Poles who lived in Russia... or maybe there's a belief that it was firstly brought from Poland. Another name of it "Pansky grib", as you see there's also trace of Poland in this name. :)

Some people call it also "dubovik" (dub=oak-tree), but that's wrong. Dubovik is what pawian posted above:

It happens that during holidays that I spent in the mountains I consume large quantities of mountain borowik ceglastopory

Life / What Do Poles think of Finns? [50]

There are many authorities that include Finland as part of Scandinavia. Go and check wikipedia.

Swedish wiki wrote:

Skandinavien är ett geografiskt och kulturellt område i norra Europa. Vanligen används termen i kulturell och språklig bemärkelse och omfattar då Sverige, Danmark och Norge, där man talar skandinaviska språk.

Scandinavia is geographic and cultural area in north Europe. The normally used term in cultural and linguistic senses which includes Sweden, Denmark and Norway, where Scandinavian languages are spoken. :)

AFAIK, Sean, Swedes use the more general term "Norden" (The North) which is close to aforesaid but also includes Iceland and Faeroe Islands (am I right Polsky Szwed? ;))

Finns from my Russian perspective are not Swedes and the language they speak is close to Hungarian or to what Russian Kareli or Mordva speak.

It just depends which classification you choose to give weight to.

Exactly. :) I just thought it would be more correct to use a genuinely Scandinavian source on that. We (russkie, schotlandci i poliaki) still can think whatever we want, right?

So they use two words to distinguish different things: "Scandinavien" (Norway, Denmark, Sweden) and "Norden" (3 mentioned+FI, Iceland, Finland).

History / History of the crime ; Bandera, UPA and Podole Polish land. [116]

did I touch the sensitive spot Sashenka?

By your provocative post where you called me "crazy" for no reason? :) Mmm... I believe you should have touched the spot of your conscience (if you have it of course).

Russian regime killed their own people for goodness sake. Never forget that. It is like turning against your own "family". Nothing can compare to that

Why are you saying that to me? and what does it have to do with this thread? Soviet regime had its own crimes and Bandera did his own.

Sashenka

Like when gals call me this way *blushing cheeks* :)

History / History of the crime ; Bandera, UPA and Podole Polish land. [116]

And Nathan is telling me that Ukrainians are not Poles. OF COURSE THEY ARE! :-)

Hm... :) In Slavic (in Ukrainian in this particular case) it's a lot funnier. :)) too bad you can't read cyrillic. Oh... here we go:

Zaporoscy Kozacy do sułtana tureckiego! Ty, sułtanie, diable turecki, przeklętego diabła bracie i towarzyszu, samego Lucyfera sekretarzu. Jaki z Ciebie do diabła rycerz, jeśli nie umiesz gołą dupą jeża zabić. Twoje wojsko zjada czarcie gówno. Nie będziesz Ty, sukin Ty synu, synów chrześcijańskiej ziemi pod sobą mieć, walczyć będziemy z Tobą ziemią i wodą, kurwa Twoja mać. Kucharzu Ty babiloński, kołodzieju macedoński, piwowarze jerozolimski, garbarzu aleksandryjski, świński pastuchu Wielkiego i Małego Egiptu, świnio armeńska, podolski złodziejaszku, kołczanie tatarski, kacie kamieniecki i błaźnie dla wszystkiego co na ziemi i pod ziemią, szatańskiego węża potomku i chuju zagięty. Świński Ty ryju, kobyli zadzie, psie rzeźnika, niechrzczony łbie, kurwa Twoja mać.

O tak Ci Kozacy zaporoscy odpowiadają, plugawcze. Nie będziesz Ty nawet naszych świń wypasać. Teraz kończymy, daty nie znamy, bo kalendarza nie mamy, miesiąc na niebie, a rok w księgach zapisany, a dzień u nas taki jak i u was, za co możecie w dupę pocałować nas!

This should work better... :)

No, Nathan is not Polish... :\

Feedback / How about adding country flag to the user profile ? [34]

What do you guys think?

It's a good idea :)

That's why we need geo auto detection

Oh... is it like birdbanding with a GPS-system? :) Always dreamt about that!
Seriously if you meant IP-detection it might not work either.

By the way, IP address can be stored at the time of registration, no need to keep on tracing someone down ;)

Then I'm gonna be American right to doomsday, which is not true. :)

Ever get tired of flaming , Peanus

Life / RUSSIAN BLACK TERRIERS...are there any in Poland...? [8]

BrutalButcher

Husky

Those are mine favourite dogs either. Never seen more devoted dogs. I heard that one has to train husky daily or otherwise they fall sick. They need running like air to breath.
