UK, Ireland / What do you hate about England and English people? [142]

My Scottish friends don't know that as I don't really talk about the English to them.

I think it is true that many brown-black people ruined parts of Birmingham. I was told this by a brown dude from there. They drafted in guns and made the work of the police harder. He is based in OZ now and never wants to go back there.

Although I don't think ASG is a jailbird, his comments were a little OTT. However, I have read his posts before and he's not a hardliner.

Love / Top 5 Cities with most beautiful/ugly girls in whole Poland [65]

It's interesting that the Poles do this. The Japanese do it too. They call girls from Hiroshima 'busu' which means pigs. Girls from Kobe are seen as the hottest.

In Poland, I dunno. People say Krakow but my mind just doesn't work that way. All the big cities have plenty of talent I'm sure.

Genealogy / Why Polish aren't white?? [272]

I saw a green Polish guy the other day, I can only assume he overdid it on the bongs or hot knives ;)

Polish aren't white? They are when taking a whitey after too much hash.

Work / What jobs pay 10,000 zlotych per month? and Where can i find one? :o) [101]

The key thing is to pinch yourself, take a deep breath, and ask yourself what you have to show for it. I don't have a kid, car, mortgage or drink that much and I still notch up a fair few costs.

Things can turn around so quickly if you are not on the ball.

I have to agree with this. Cutting back on the drinking helps (says he who is close to polishing off a bottle of 48PLN SA Sauvignon Blanc with 84PLN a kilo cheese). Do as I say don't do as I do, LOL.

Seriously though, head to the grindstone and be sure to carve out some routine to your timetable, I'm struggling to maximise my working week due to entering into previous commitments and not being able to extricate myself. It's a fallow period compared to before but it can be changed with careful planning.

Love / WHY DO POLISH MEN LIE? [150]

I'd lie too if I had to defend a hard piece of work (pracy magisterskiej) and then get into a job that paid peanuts. Life should not be about drudgery.

Food / WHAT DID YOU EAT FOR POLISH EASTER TODAY? [45]

Sour rye soup with eggs (a Silesian favourite, żurek z jajkiem) was the starter. Then some white sausages (biały kiełbasy) with some nice sarepska mustard. I'd've preferred some Roleski spicy mustard (they do a super copy of Colmans for 2PLN per jar) but I was thoroughly grateful that mustard was on offer. A wee dabble of horseradish too. Some culinary meats and cheeses were served up too. After that came a couple of slices of cake filled with some dashes of vodka and then the bigos on fresh bread.

I really appreciate the lengths that they went to to make it a memorable occasion. They are hospitable people whom I have the utmost respect and admiration for. REAL people. The only thing is focussing in Polish for that long but it's all practice :)

Quite right brotha. You can hash together a big pot of bigos for next to nothing. I had a huge meal today and it wouldn't have cost a lot. Let's appreciate the modest but delicious dishes that Polish homecooking provides.

The Poles get by quite nicely :)

Genealogy / Why Polish aren't white?? [272]

I know, it's pretty pathetic but it's true. Remnants of such times are still with us. Many hardcore WASPS tend to like the BNP and numbers may be bigger than we might think.

Have a look, news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/7993595.stm
The BNP is winning support for their stance on curbing immigration, albeit somewhat radically.

I see where HB is coming from. There are those in Britain who are in such denial that they see whities as only WASPS and nothing more. The purists of yesteryear

I find that weird that they'd say that. Jones is a Welsh name btw.

Life / Polish stereotypes of other nationalities!? [472]

In relative terms, much higher. I even talked to some Finns here in Gliwice way back in 2006 and they said it's true. They are really affected by SAD in winter as the nights draw in very quickly.

Hehehe, that's a laugh as the Finns have close to the highest suicide rate, if not the, in the world.

I see the peace pipe is still being passed round amongst the fuzzy-jumpered weirdy beardies ;)

Travel / Starbucks in Poland? [149]

Yeah, let's make this happen. One in Katowice would be nice :) Gliwice, no chance.

History / Why will Poland always be the puppet of America? [159]

Let's ask ourselves this, in what other areas is Poland America's puppet? The missile shield had some merit (albeit very limited) and wasn't a classic puppet scheme all the way. In what other areas is Poland reliant on American help?

Life / Polish stereotypes of other nationalities!? [472]

I hate to generalise but I guess they would be more friendly overall. Still, that could be argued.

I thought as much. Aren't you forgetting that the Poles are even more RC than the Irish?

As do my 'conquests' but they are not voluminous and that I'm proud of.
