Kemaleon

i adore poland cause almost every radio station still plays that song. Looking back on the lyrics, how could he not have been "so happy?"

Green and will always be a winner in my book and polka dots too.

steal it and treat it like it's your own, let it suckle even, THEN BAM, throw it at a passer-by and watch them stumble to catch it. Enjoy the moment and spread the gospel from the book of me.

hound's tooth can only be done for handbags, and fall jackets no lower than the waist.

Now polka dotted jeans, f'n right that'll bring them ******* to heel. owwww! that's hot.

oh go on now. but i don't see why camo green has to be angry ahhh but i guess i'd be angry too if made to dress in one colour (ok i had to for a time but live and learn). Now you know what's going to be big here? Yeah f'n stripes, f'n horizontal stripes. Fcuk me, Argyle is always cool, f'n stripes are so blahh; at least hound's tooth is different but dare i say it's the femine equivelent to camo?

Now polka dots, just depends on the size darling, if you're thin then they'll work for you-that simple.

i'm going with green. Red is just too aggressive, blue has been done, pink is not for polish males and yellow is so 2001. It could end up being something wierd like white though. But I ask you, when will polka dots come back in? - polka dots soooo have it goin on.

i'll give the brits this: their prints and colour combos are bingbangonthemoneyman.

Every spring and summer here in Poland there is a new "in" colour which sees everyone and there dog clad in it. Apart from that, there's just some shite you can't pull off here cause every flucker has to turn their head and stare-Fcuk off already!

I'm sorry but cheap and kitsch still rule the day here in Poland and anyone that tells you that isn't the majority is simply blowing smoke up your a$$. But most of the worst dressed people I've met here also happen to be the coolest fothermuckers i've ever met.

News / Polish Immigrants Leave America for Europe [210]

I think most people that scream and yell about how imperialist or violent the US is would not last a day in the cultures they are 'championing'.

Being opposed to imperialist activities and championing warlords in the middle of Congo are not inclusive to eachother. You should realize being against intervention is simply that. and being against intervening politics doesn't mean someone would want to live in timbhuktu, it just means they believe the place and people should be left to their own way.

it simply wants everyone to have the FREEDOM to choose their lifestyle and culture and not have control, violence and suffering visited upon them.

Yet guys like Sudharto, Hussein and many others were all orginally backed by U.s. foreign policy-wtf? They were heralded as allies (while laying waste to their counties and people) then denounced as bad guys after they served their purpose.

U.S. policy has been completely about ensuring other countries accept american intervention and influence through the pen or the sword but it always comes at a cost to the country that gets your version of "freedom."

Your inability to recognize that the disastrous situations many countries end up in is often caused by American interests is sad considering your eloquence. Then they need "rescuing" and that's when decent americans come on board, and yes there are millions of them.

americans can generally be counted on to take this attempt at what they probably think is reasoning. Inventions and discoveries are the work of individuals. Not countries or continents. The same morons say they are fighting "terrorists" while their arse is parked firmly on the sofa.

still to this day you will lean either way, whatever the wind blows.

this is true but is being flexible any worse than being stubborn or pig-headed?

Now if i were you, i'd worry less about the poles leaving and their opinion (everyone has one so what's the big deal anyways) of you and more about the mexicans that your government has allowed in, the number of which greatly exceeds the small trickle of poles into uk. I don't envy you guys that predicament cause i see no way you're ever going to get even a third of them back across the border and they keep coming.

News / The New World Order and Poland's place [50]

i'm not sure what you mean by "elites" (i don't recall using that) but still, when considering who has the power to make laws, and initiate economic policies, i doubt that the avg Pole considering themsellf as Polish will affect those laws and policies one way or the other.

anyway we may be looking at a seperate ideas here.

News / The New World Order and Poland's place [50]

i'm not sure if i agree with all this, but i always remember what one guy wrote once:

Think of how much of a say you have in how your community is governed?
Now think of how much say you have in how your region is governed?
And now your country?

Now try to imagine what your voice will be or is supposed to be in a government that spans a continent.

Scary stuff when i think about it like he had written it.

Law / Driving in Poland on a foreign license [45]

show me where the info is wrong then :O)

scam?:0)
the fact that the major motor insurancer (in canada) issues the thing as an international permit, the fact that it has different limitations in different countries? :o)

i never said it stood as a licence unto its own. But never mind, I have used one many times with the police in different countries and border crossings and you have wikipedia, my bad:o)

Law / Driving in Poland on a foreign license [45]

he says there's no such a thing.

shaynelle's father is incorrect and upolska is about half right (lol at quoting wikipedia vs actually having one), mine was issued by caa so i can assure you it isn't a scam.

You must have a valid licence from your country of residency plus the international licence. Having the international licence allows you to drive for extended periods of time in a given country without having to exit and return for the sake of legality and insurance. Yeah it's translated into a few languages but not that many really.

The concept of the international licence was established in 1949 and is endorsed and or recognized by virtually every political state that exists.

Law / Driving in Poland on a foreign license [45]

i keep my international license handy for when i don't think i'll have gone outside the borders for a 3 month period. As well, I got a buddy with a polish one but he let it expire and uses his other licence from another non eu country, he seems to prefer the other one for some reason.

Life / What's wrong with you, Polish people - is it an inferiority complex? [120]

So who has this problem ? Where ? When ? How does It look like ?

you do. here. now. look in a mirror.

ok ok all kidding aside:

Well, these are the signs of an inferiority complex: sensitivity to criticism, hypercritical attitude, tendency towards blaming, feelings of persecution etc.

X says to Y: You are blah blah blah...
Y denies, so...

Y has inferiority complex... wow.

it is more the vehemence of your responses-me think he doth protest too much- which may lead someone to nominate you as chairman of the board of the poles with a national identity complex group.

but i guess opinions are like arses- most of them stink.

where youre anger comes from

yes because it's my long winded posts making sweeping accusations across a range of cultures that comes across as angry (that's an example of sarcasm-basically how people normally speak to you). Good luck with having money as your posts have shown you're unable to comprehend anything beyond that with a price tag. anyway you're last post actually dipped lower on the critical thinking scales than i'd ever thought possible; congratulations, you've dumbfounded me with such stupidity.

i can no longer bestowe upon you any gifts of intellect as it would only further be as pearls before swine.

au revoir mon petit ami disposé

what a load of twoddle , if you live & work in this great land and you earn a wage for youre work are you not profiting from youre circumstance ?

not the individual silly, if you really believe that the wealth of the entire british nation is only due to the the work done on the island then you can have all the money you desire, it wouldn't reduce your ignorance by an iota.

Look brother, you may have the trappings of wealth but it's becoming clearer and clearer you lay claim to precious little else.

its called enteprise and global marketing

f she was still in poland she would be working in some low paid **** poor job

^For a british owned corporation no doubt. But hey it's ok to pay people crap wages in the name of global marketing (i think you'll find you should have used a different term to better describe the model you promote but it's easy enough to figure out what you meant).

you reape the benefits of youre own circumstance

well then stop complaining if someone wants to "reape" the beneifits of their circumstance by creating a new circumstance.

This is so fun as you continually use your own logic to make one arguement but then continue on with it only to repeal your original assertions- yet you can't see it, tee hee.

Your story is touching but it lacks objectivity, sounds more like your broad's found herself a sponser, but now i'm using poor analytical skills and judging things on first blush-shame on me.

did it take you long enough? and all you could come up with was that?

It seems that you are just a touch thin skinned and couldn't take any criticism of your stated qualm(s). No worries, despite your potty talk, miserable verbal diarrhoea, mildly amusing (not to mention uninformed) world view and racial stereotyping (lending credence to the arguement that you were [if not are] suffering from lazy thinking), i want to show you that i wasn't and am not entirely against you.

So stop asking and answering your own questions as you've just done and open yourself up to the notion that you really are looking at the situation through a the reactionary lense of child-like observation. In other words, give your head a shake and stop with the temper tantrums.

god you lose the plot so quickly

first of all, don't follow if all you're going to do is complain how lost you are. get with the program or go back to your misdirected whinging.

please read my messages from the beginning before you spout off .

I empathized with you at the outset however you were too busy draggin your knuckles to figure that out. You took the one criticism i made and did more than a little spouting of your own, buddy boy.

I still empathize with your postion, but my criticism of it stands. Now go back and read my reply to your post.

You've got to see the bigger picture on these matters, you can't go trying to wage war (metaphor for any of you dolts ready to jump on that one) against' every individual you see abusing the system. First recognize the system for what it is, and has been, then go after the policy makers(should you get that far in your reasoning). As individuals, we're largely reationary so it' like trying to take care of the coughing instead of the virus.

Now if you'll excuse me, i'm trying to find a good deal on alegro and get a couple pilsners down me (they're ok but they got nothing on english ales).

*edited material added below*

because the polish gvt has kept the masses downtrodden while they all become rich off the back of their own countrymen

hmmm somehow i missed that bit you wrote, unless you just edited that, however i'll lay blame on my own p!$$ poor reading skills and apologize but also note duly, your observation rings true in the UK as well. Polish leaders and big players just seem to be more brazen (read less sophisticated) about their, ummm, oh to heck with euphamisms, criminal exploitation of their own people. And although (i'm sure they would if they could), they can't really compete with the exploiting that b.n. firms do abroad (and at home, may the god & the queen bless migrant workers). That is, the british have become rich off the backs of other peoples' countrymen.
