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

Seems that drugs are available in Germany as well.

And now your average German kid.

Ever see how we treat our polar bears?

Imagine how we would treat somebody we don't like.

For you Jurgen

Good one Szar.

Hey BB:

You meant surely "goosestepping"! ;)

Surely, you meant "goosestepping".
That would be the correct usage of the English language.

i would simply get rid of the blue bastard (;

And in Canada, we would feel sorry for the blue pencil, and invite all of the pencils originally in the case with the blue one to come over and keep him company. We would make sure that he is sharp at all times and provide him with sharpeners that come with instructions that can be clearly understood by a blue pencil.

subconscious racism.

Racism of different sorts on both parts. If Lodz-the-boat were here, he would probably put the rest of the pencils in disarray, just to make the blue pencil feel comfortable.

I would HAVE to move the blue one to the end of the line,

There is the difference. In Canada, we would move the blue pencil to the front of the line.

Anybody other than southern fans?

Better tension relief than other methods, IMO.

USA, Canada / Do many Polish people in America hate Americans? [592]

This only stresses the importance of the US being isolationist going forward.. and I mean for the next 40 - 50 years a least. Maybe even to the point of getting out of NATO. Russia is not in it.. nobody is attacking them obviously. Isolationism is not a panacea, but pretty damn close.

That might not be a bad thing. If it were to include a re-jigged American Foreign Policy, thus reducing the amount of interaction the US has with so many countries, you might take the heat off of yourselves. America, as well intentioned as it may be, doesn't make many friends abroad, based on support of regimes picked by America, nor does it have a great track record at picking winners (as of late, that is).

The great thing about isolationism is that it forces you to do more with less, or become creative in what you have got. The problem with isolationism is that when you go abroad to purchase those materials that you don't have, you may not get the best price (that best price may be reserved for good trading partners).

C.) Cut off all immigration even from Europe.

If you are going to do this, then you may want to get your birth rate up by incentives to those already confined in your borders, as the current birth rate doesn't support the type of growth the US Economy needs.

Hypnos means sleep in greek.

And he's an etymologist! Where did this word come from?

I would never dream of doing something like to my mom. If I ever did, I probably wouldn't be able to sit down for at least a week!

There is the difference, that mom probably knew some do-gooder would haul her butt in front of a cop for child abuse. In my day, the correct behaviour was reinforced with a wooden spoon to the back side. Not anymore.

Love / Polish Girls negative or positive personality trait? [267]

the thread is not about who i hang around its about Polish women in general

But if you hang around a gaggle of PL Lovelies, who happen to have a Negative outlook, and I hang around a bevvie of PL Beauties, who happen to have a Positive outlook, I would suggest that they are Positive, while you would suggest they are negative. It all depends on the sample size. I really don't think anybody has done significant enough sampling to give a true picture.

don't make them seem so angel like by suggesting they are only negative with good reason, that bull pooh

If they are negative for no good reason, you are hanging around the wrong PL ladies!
