News / Heavy storm / tornados cause chaos and flooding in Poland [23]


my Brother said the same thing, he told me about it I read it on here and heard it online, yes two a year is rare compared to the states

we get the worst in the midwest tornado alley, but this one does look like something out of one of the clips from the weather

channel storm chasers!

We lived in a old house near a farm and open land, *WORST PLACE* anyways, I remember as a kid, hearing the windows bangin
like they wanted to blow in. my parents went out , I was sleeping upstair with my sister and she was older * teen* she shushed me up

and said just go back to sleep.. good thing it didnt hit our house, but it was at night, who would have found us if it would have hit the

house we would have been all over the place in the fields.. scarey!

to this day I am still mad at my sister for not taking us down stairs, there was a basement , which is the safe place to be during

these storms.

Feedback / Daily/Weekly Polls (suggestion) [19]


I agree


if its so bad here why do you stay?

There are all walks of life, we will never agree with everyone, people say things without filters, when the mods catch
it they do what is needed.

The way I see it, if they make the decision to make a arse of themselfs so what? this isnt jail, its a forum, and people

have opinions we all have to try to respect each other, sometimes thats not a option, we get random idiots , but its a open
forum, i can tell you I was on another forum before I came to this one, and it was far worse, there was a favorite poster, he said

what ever the heck he wanted, it was moderated alright, the forum was boring and uneventful, the people were ok, but one post
out of line and they kicked you out, And it wasnt like this forum,

there are some who get away with stuff, I think the mods give alot of chances to those who do offend and try to get them to stop

but they dont listen, when they do get suspended then people are B*tching that they are gone and its boring in here.

of all the forums THIS POLISH FORUM comes up on top of all the forums, online I dont even need to save to my favs cause its the

TOP of the list online for forums to come to... so those who think its so bad, no one forces you to stay, if you try to keep a open

mind and understand that theres alot of work put into this forum from the beginning, and they do what is necessary to keep it calm

but its like at a soccer game or football game, once one guy tosses a chair all hell breaks loose, its hard to control the crowd!!

USA, Canada / Chris Gets Dumped on the Bachelorette for Being Polish! [52]


that might be the reason he was dumped, but its her choice, I know i wouldnt want to marry someone thats annoying for the rest of my

life. lol

I doubt it was because he was Polish.

Love / ARE POLISH GIRLS GOLD-DIGGERS? [359]


That would be like a bunch of polish women getting on a forum for british and saying are British men always so cheap?

yeah I would chalk this up to learn from your mistakes, nationality has nothing to do with it, I dont live in Poland I have borrowed money

to various people ( nationality not involved) and they never payed me back either.

One thing is trust, and sometimes people misuse the trust and take advantage, you have to go with the flow, you didnt know, just dont

keep on making the same mistakes, learn from them, Unfortunately you might not re-coup your cash.

I took the person I borrowed the money too small claims and to this day still have not recieved a dime back.

its all dust in the wind now.. I doubt I will ever see it.

Life / A new Poland's war - the poor vs the rich [81]


looking at it, no, because I cant really fairly state from polands perspective, but I can from my own area,

can you honestly say you have never seen a act of stupidity? you have no friends/family that might take their last
few dollars and use it for booze or a fix? ( maybe I am just in a mind set that traumatized me) <~past relationship.


yes you are right, I was referring to American culture I guess. I cant imagine polish folks to be so cruel though.


break out the magnifying glass professor Holmes And thank you for enjoying my post again ( I am still a smartarse) LOL


I am no more brainwashed then you.

But you mention dominant.. and its a key factor in what you said, which i think now i am understanding more of what you mean

and every living thing involves dominance for the sole purpose of survival which is a cycle we all must follow.

of course i thought of this a couple weeks ago, I was pondering while wondering <~ lol anyways, I kept thinking how really
we are not really free. Freedom has changed.. and we allowed it to change.. we go to work in our suits and skirts and
we come home to the same prison. And to boot we are all on a time schedule.

I was watching the ants that I found under a rock outside of my house. as I am watching them i notice the different workers for each

job, one was carrying a tiny egg, others were making the nest, in and out these holes and scrambling to do the queens bidding.
and I am the ultimate queen, because I am larger then these ants, I could ruin the nest with one spray of my ant killer and upset their

whole way of life.and kill their queen. so that I may be the queen a rule this piece of dirt outside of my home. but why would i kill all

these ants when they provide pest control and could keep my garden going good because they dig around the roots to give them air.

They have a purpose as we all do, we find our purpose in life and we follow it.

And if we choose to hop off that path , even though there are road blocks or some lady trying to spray us with bug spray

we keep on going, because that is how the cycle works.. disruption causes major problems as we are seeing with the economy
someone had a huge disruption in the cycle and it screwed us all up.

Anyway. think i answered this.. off to sleep :)

Life / A new Poland's war - the poor vs the rich [81]


so basically in Poland only, you are saying the rich never contribute to the poor, they watch tnem suffer .

I dont believe that.

I know there is corruption, where isnt there corruption?

but what I feel like your saying is those people who have actually earned their right to be rich, worked their arse off to get

there are supposed to just hand out money to the poor because its the right thing to do?

listen robin hood.. lol put your sword away for a moment, and realize that some of these poor are that way because 1 Either they
didnt want to change their lives ( and drink/take drugs) which is true in any nationality, people make their own choices, yes
there are some who were born into poverty and there are plenty of people who were born into poverty who became very
well known and rich only from their experiences and it didnt change them or how they wanted to help others..

so lets see if we can find examples.. I pick Henryk Gorecki for one. not born in a rich family, but he did manage to work hard

he experienced the war and wrote about it and he became rich by way of his heartfelt music.


as you wish, but I strongly disagree with you, but thank you for giving up a good debate for me today.

off to work soon :)

News / Don't go to Poland ... because you could end up coming back in a coffin [313]

I have heard of the games getting rough and hospitalizations because people get way out of hand, I am sure
there is occasional statistic, but that happens because people cant handle losing. so fights break out and riots

during intense games, I can see why they do beef up security. its needed.

Genealogy / Professional genealogist to investigate my Polish connections? [11]

how much research have you done in your area ? how much information do you have because this is something required
to know is maybe a date of birth for the ancestor you are looking for and a idea of which town?

Life / A new Poland's war - the poor vs the rich [81]


ok thought this thread was about the rich and poor peeps..

again I will try to keep on topic for you WB :)

I was asked a few times what my job was by several cousins, I just chalked it up as small talk, people do ask what you do

for a living, even people I run into here, so its prob just conversation. I cant see someone wanting to know what your wages are

to make you feel small , does anyone see polish people openly discussing how rich they are and that they despise poor?

I would think that is something you keep private as to what your financial status is so you dont get mugged , flashy people
I could see this happening too, if they are jerks they deserve it.

But , I think its the same there as it is here, there are reasons why people have what they have and those that dont, my thoughts are

that some people dont want to futher their lives and just accept and only exist.. most of these folks are drug users, alcoholics
etc , you have some that will be rich and fall into the poor catagory because their social lives have caught up with them and
they had a handle on it, but somewhere down the road hit disaster. something traumatic might have happened or they just live
like they are 17 all their lives and dont want to grow up and accept responsibility.. I have seen all of this.

I guess it all depends on the person, but we cant be making something bigger then it is when really it is not like that most of the time

you have much larger groups of rich folks who do help poor with monetary gifts and donations to causes for humanity.

omg my brain is working today lol..

News / Don't go to Poland ... because you could end up coming back in a coffin [313]


lol well once in a while is better then never..


this is my example , because its not everyday that you go to a game.

people do get killed, we already know this, but the thread has decieved you and now you are in another
discussion .


no but if you go to a football game do you see people leaving in coffins?

Life / A new Poland's war - the poor vs the rich [81]


he is right, what was the purpose of calling her a idiot?

it is possible to disagree with someone without the name calling.

would he have said that to her in a face to face discussion at a table sharing lunch out in Public?

I doubt it, I think he would get frustrated, and think to himself those words, so why cant we practice this
on the forum?

or is it that you want to see people at each others throat?

News / Don't go to Poland ... because you could end up coming back in a coffin [313]

Got that :)

I just think he could have chose his words more carefully due to the fact that it appears more like if you
just go to Poland anytime , you could end up in a coffin.

And That statement holds no truth what so ever because its not about Poland , its about the fans and football
and how they react to other fans etc.

just pointing out the obvious.

:)

News / Don't go to Poland ... because you could end up coming back in a coffin [313]


this thread is decieving itself because its title says dont go to POLAND and clearly its about football, its title
should read, if your a fan of football dont attend the games in Poland otherwise you might come home etc etc

when I look at it , to me its saying dont go to Poland Period.

UK, Ireland / Posting from UK to Poland....not good! [53]

lol seriously?

copper is up, precious metals are a big deal right now , especially to someone out of work, what on earth were you thinking?

I have some silver to turn in, but its down ( according to my brother) so I wait ever so patiently :(

who were you sending the postcard to anyways?

Life / Health system in Poland one of the worst in Europe: report [78]


no no stop, lets all be honest here, you know a whole nation of Polish people.


in Canada you have to wait too, my co-workers mom has heart trouble, she was supposed to have a echocardiogram
and some other tests run , but the doctor took a vacation and wasnt avail , with no coverage and so something as important
as your heart you would think they would at least have a doctor avail for the patients to come to during his absence.

But where i live, the doctors cover each other, so the patient doesnt have to wait, thats how it should be.

Love / Strange Polish Girl. [11]

I kinda feel the same, its like , you cant really say they should be putting out, so is that how you guys are? you want sex on the third

date, WTF about being a gentleman and stop worrying about your penis for once take her out on a nice date like a fancy resturant

or a nice movie or something that is exciting like go-carting or to amusment park?

it gets boring seeing a guy just want to suck face all the time, you hold her hand , yeah thats fun, now what??

get with the program, you want a girlfriend or a F&ck friend? Polish girls, brazilian girls, irish girls, dont matter what
girl it is, if you act like a dork and just want to hang out, she is going to find someone else. you have to also stop

smouthering, girls dont like when a man is mushy, falling all over the place, they like someone they can catch too
so act like you are a man, and sweep her off her feet, make her feel like she is the only one!!

my god is life that difficult to figure this out?

guys like the girls to take charge, but she will only take charge if you act like james bond or something!! lol
get your james bond on dudes!! LOL

make her laugh, make her want you!! geese o peets!

Life / Polish people and racism. [943]


Yes there are idiots everywhere, not just polish people,


you do what you need to do to protect yourself all the time as with any situation if you go into a bad area or feel like

someone is threatening you call the police or get the hell out of there or use karate on them, I would if I knew how to

cause if someone is brave enough to call you a name they need a good swift kick in the arse!


you shouldnt put up with it no matter what your race or nationality.. make sure you carry some kind of protection if you
feel threatened, but I think this would only occur in areas where there are clubs/drinking and someone decides to be
a idiot for the night.

good luck to you stay safe!

Love / Mixed Race Relationships (Polish guy married a Filipino/Spanish) [13]


not always, just depends on who has the stronger genes in either side of the family.

my dad had darker complexion and both parents were Polish, so it depends, and then me and my middle brother were born
with almost white hair ( blond) and now both of us have either brown or dark blond hair,


not really, hes just pointing out that his kids are a mix of both, healthy, which is a good thing, as we all know certain ethnic

groups have documented genetic diseases which can be passed down to the children..

you are blessed

:)

Genealogy / surname Krawiec [38]

Mary,

Best advice to give is to ask all the questions to your grandparents and great grandparents you can.

ask about the churches they attended
ask about the old pictures ( sometimes family doesnt write on them) so they need to be identified.

ask about the towns they lived in American and in Poland if they know.

Write as much down as you can, or you can ask your grandparents to write you a book to keep and talk about
their lives and if they travelled.

ask about all the cousins, get names, Married names, Maiden names.

I wish that I was as young as you are now and curious to know about my family, it was a very hard hobby to take

interest in, but it is fun. sometimes you get frustrated, because you know there will be more, one thing to remember is
history never ends, So family history can go on forever as long as your family continues to grow.

sometimes in Junior High they want you to do family tree ( immediate family) you will have already accomplished this
if you gather all this information, it will be like having a library of your family at home.

I wish you luck, and stay in school and keep your interest in family history as you go back in time you will get many surprises

and it will be fun.

:)

USA, Canada / Why do Americans (and Canadians) hate Polish people? [226]


I hate my neighbor cause they are crackheads and they hit the side of my car, whether they are polish or english or whatever
nationality , they screwed up my day, because I was going to go into work early to make some extra money and now my car
looks like shyt ,after having a 10 day hospital stay with my daughter this is just another burden on top of the doctors visits and
my own appts!!

I dont hate canadians or anyone of any nationality as much as I hate my flippin neighbor right now!!
Their country is crackhead country on the other side of the street!!


i have a joke, how many crackheads does it take to smash a car?? two! and neither one knows their arse from a hole in the ground!

staying on topic..I am american and I dont hate Polish or Canadians, its people as individuals, you meet some who are super
sweet and then you meet crackheads who need a foot up their fanny.. just like my neighbors who could be polish, or canadaian
I doubt it though,


its just a topic, people are running out of things to ask cause I think just about every question you can think of has been asked

at least twenty/thirty times or so! alot of merging going on :)

Love / What am i to do knowing i can't get to see my Polish daughter [10]


that is bullshyt.

she has lack of compassion, WHAT the hell is wrong with some of these chicks?

I would get you a good lawyer and get visitations set up, maybe the military has some type of help for that?
usually there are services for service men and women, I am not certain.

you are a good man so dont let her bring you down, you are taking care of your daughter and your country
and both deserve Medals, the Medal you will get from your little girl will be wrapped around your heart :)

UK, Ireland / Why would anyone kill himself? Polish guy kills himself in Ireland [16]


I figured that, but how the story is portrayed is sad.. because its obvious he didnt kill himself. people do that
when they are left alone, he was not alone.. I dont believe this story what so ever..


no its ireland where nothing is figured out!! duh.. the other guy has a slash wound, which means there was a altercation
so if they are ending the investigation or already ended it, thats pretty bad , I find it really stupid, but the only witnesses
were those three.. so of course the can say oh yeah, he stabbed himself.. is the guy going to defend himself? no cause
he already gone!! he cant wake up and say, yeah I walked in, seen my wife with another man, grabbed a knife, but
he was alot bigger then me so the knife went in my chest not his..

anyways.. if your going to Slam America, be prepared to get slammed back.. because truthfully that wasnt a good argument
it doesnt matter now, because the poor guy is gone, yes this story is very sad.. anyway you look at it.

Love / Prevention of child abduction by Polish mother. [232]


ahhhhh you wanted to say Normal ;) lol


that is so true, I think that there is no education or prevention or remedy to help this though.. because if you care enough
about someone you will take that chance fully knowing that things could change, we just have to put our best foot forward
and hope things work out, but people do change.


I do, so I hope for the best.. I wont keep asking. its personal and thats how it should stay.

Love / Prevention of child abduction by Polish mother. [232]


nope I suggest that its a gift you have and based on your history have had it for a long time.you rile men and women

up in here that is of your own doing.


I never said it wasnt hurtful, but because you only read what you want to read if you read her posts, she was
trying to find more clues to why.. you make alot of assumptions based on your posts about women , you pretty
much chew off your nose to spite your face cause everything you say sterotypes women.

your really not a good role model for the men in here. your advice stinks, your a broken man, retailiating against all
women and thats not how to be. people argue yes, but the bottom line is, no man should be over his wife and no woman

should be over her husband.. what really should happen is to walk beside each other.. and I dont expect you zimmy to
understand this because your beyond understanding how it works, you only think in one direction.
