most of the Polish blokes I know are monolythic neanderthalers, working in construction
Are you suggesting that local construction workers are sophisticated students of culture, philosophy and literature? Do they read, socialize and display the finest qualities of human culture on the scaffolding or while hoisting the bricks and cement up?
I *lurve* Poland for Żubrówka, bookshops, English tourists dressed as fairies two weeks before Halloween, 24-hour pierogi places and really crappy clubs with crappy techno music that keep you out until other places start opening again! <3
Because I love my Polish girlfriend dearly and her family are wonderful. The people dont pretend to be cheerful and happy if they arent, unlike in Ireland. The food suits me and I love Bigos. Name days and the alcohol consumed for name days. Beautiful Krakow. Traditions are kept alive, and a sense of community is apparent still in the villages. Beautiful women in boots everywhere lol Family occassions and get togethers. Four distinct seasons unlike the Irish four seasons in one day. Krakow in snow. Mad Polish weddings. Zubrowka. Tomato ketchup on everything. The food market in Krakow. Ok, so I know that was more than 10 words but I dont care :P
