Love / Marriage problems in Poland [50]

So... she's admitting to be so completely stupid and lazy that she can't possibly be expected to take care of herself? Grrrl power?!?

Maybe your wife would consider going to counselling with you.

Therapy of any kind is a very tough sell if she's Polish...

Love / Marriage problems in Poland [50]

:Despite what happens remember you're a special and amazing man

To be honest that sounds like she has already checked out of the marriage... and has a replacement lined up, women usually don't jump ship until they see a new port in view. That is code to soften the blow while you get the hint.

If you want to give things a chance then say you'll give her time to think... but not an infinite time and you can't guarantee you'll be there for her when she decides. Your life is not a game that she can call time out on.

News / Poland versus Greece in economy [175]

Your very first comment "Is Poland safe for a Greek" was insulting and including the delightful information that you've heard Polish people are racist. And you've gone on to insult (sight unseen) the appearance of Polish cities, Polish people in gneral, the looks of Polish women, the religion most Polish people follow and more.

And the first time someone challenges a belief of yours go completely bezerk.

Mario, Polish people don't shy away from disagreements or arguments, they thrive on them and enjoy loud disagreements. But they don't like however people that lose their head at the slightest disagreement with them (as you have done) and will either escalate to levels you wont' be able to keep up with or just freeze you out.

Decline the contract and stay in Greece where no one will challenge the mental bubble you've created around yourself.

If you do come to Poland (against the advice of most people here) pay attention to what you say and don't go around randomly insulting the country in which you are a guest.

Life / Right-wing events in Poland [13]

Why would such groups hold events in English... in Poland?

Liga Polskich Rodzin

barely exist anymore (like the other groups which are all very minor little things that have no connection to people's daily lives).

would like to get to know some nice people

learn Polish then, Poles in English are a mixed bag (and often kind of boring) life in Poland in Polish is many, many times more interesting

I advise you to keep your arrogant, prejudiced self away from Poland

He's a charmer for sure, his very first post was insulting and he's done nothing but insult people the entire time and apparently doesn't understand why people are hostile to him as he's spitting venom at them.

He's easily the most unpleasant and nasty Greek person I've ever had the misfortune of dealing with in any media....

I hope he does come to Poland and tells everybody what false, ugly people they are and how JPII is a criminal. That would be an experience he will not soon forget....

You have more HIV and your women look ugly with hair between their eyes.

Oh please come to Poland and tell everybody what you think of it.... (just make sure you have health insurance and an open return ticket)

good you accept john paul II being a criminal

Please, please, please tell every person you meet in Poland what you think of JPII, you'll make sooooooooo many friends.

Work / Native English looking for a teaching job in Poland [135]

I just went to the local Police department

For Poland it was easy, just went to the courthouse (around the corner from the migration office) applied and had it in a couple of days.

But they also wanted a national one for the US (where I hadn't been for a few years). When I went to the consular agency they had a form letter already prepared saying there is no such thing available and they accepted that.

Work / Native English looking for a teaching job in Poland [135]

just wondering if Poland usually requires a background/police check?

Does Canada keep national police records? When I was applying for a residence permit at one point they wanted 'oświadczenie o niekaralności' (official statement that I don't have a police record) for both the time I had spent in Poland (this was easy enough to get) and for my home country (USA) I went to the local consular office and they gave me a letter that said that the federal government doesn't keep those kinds of records...

You might check with the Canadian Embassy about what you'll need (and what they can and can't give you)

, no she did not

No matter the technicalities she bears the moral responsibility for saddling Germany with hundreds of thousands of people who it cannot get rid of and who will never be economically productive.

And she bears the moral responsibility for the increase in crime that accompanied the arrivals.

Life / Going to Poland in a hijab - Polish people and Islam [154]

That's a laughable idea in most of Europe. most of the radical madrassas (which have caused the Sunni covergence to Saudi norms) are in fact funded from oil arab countries.

Again, look back to the siege of the great mosque in 1979, that's the event that stopped Saudi Arabia from modernizing and the real beginning of them exporting their nasty religion. In retrospect it was the key event in turning around muslim norms from modernizing to traditionalizing, much more so than the Iranian putsch.

To me ban kebabs

In informal Polish (and I think some other languages in Europe, including English) Kebab is a derogatory word for those of North African or Middle Eastern Appearance (like Ciapaty for South Asians).

Greeks starve and drown in debt as long as they continue to bully a small country that simply wants peace and quiet.

There does seem to be some karma going on, Greece tries to bully a smaller weaker country and gets bullied bigger and stronger countries while whining incessantly about it.

I'm sure the issue was first inflamed by some Greek politician or crook (but I repeat myself) to distract the public from massive theft and graft. The fact that it's still successful tends to erode my sympathy for the plight of Greeks. Starving and crying? Eat the cursed, foul word Macedonia, it's a wonder any self-respecting people would want it. The real Macedonians in Skopje do more credit than the crybaby debt non-paying Greeks

the fact that they rarely talk about politics with them might have something to do with that...

By calling their country Macedonia, they make claims.

Get over yourselves already the more Greeks talk about this issue the crazier and crazier they look to the saner people in the world.

Does Poland mind a different country calling itself Lithuania? Does China mind a country calling itself Mongolia?

With all of Greece's problems, this is a very petty issue to stake your international credibility upon....

News / Poland - Ukraine. Młodzież Wszechpolska against Ukrainians. [180]

since 1993 it was recognized BY RUSSIA as part of sovereign Ukraine

Russian promises or oaths are worth nothing. They will break any contract the second it becomes slightly inconvenient for them. More fools in the Ukraine to trust that Russia would ever keep its word.

The whole fight in Eastern Ukraine was part of a move intended to create a land bridge to Crimea (without a natural land bridge it's an expensive white elephant). The local populations immediately organized and fought back except around Donetsk where the people are poorly organized and not fast enough to push back quickly enough.

Putin has kept it on because it's a headache for a new enemy (Ukraine) and the bloodthirsty russian public wants it.

Nobody has right to insult Greece

Macedonians calling their country Macedonia is not insulting Greece - Poland could say the same about the name of the modern country of Lithuania (not related to Polish Lithuania ) but most Poles are too sane to be upset it.

have you always been so bloody serious on to think that my post was about anything else than making a little provocation towards that brave young Greek man?

I probably missed it was from you, there are so many crazy ideas floating around it's hard to distinguish provocation form sincere madness (a la crow).

And Turkey is preparing to militarily invade and occupy a bunch of Greek islands anyway so.... yahoo! we's a gonna get a war! or Ottomans part 2 (not sure which would be first)

people really like to visit Greece for their holidays..:

Turkey has traditionally been popular too...

But massively dumb idea, especially with the religious kleptocrat Erdogan trying to drag Turkey back in time, he even had plans to reintroduce the arabic alphabet...

In Greece I've only been to Rodos and Kos (loved both, maybe Rodos a bit more, the area of Rodos town around the northern tip of the island down through the marinas is one of my favorite places on earth..... I just wish they took better care of the beaches.
