News / More anti Polish sentiment in western media ("Apple is worth more than Poland") [110]

You obviously don't live in the US and don't know anything about it.

You do realise that Poland isn't actually in the US...

it. If the author was comparing African Americans ghetto living standards to a third world country, it would be WWIII.

He wasn't.

But he thinks it's ok to slip in a slight mockery of Poland.

He didn't.

He just chose countries at random. Why should he treat Poland with kid gloves?

News / More anti Polish sentiment in western media ("Apple is worth more than Poland") [110]

Saudia Arabia and Sweden are both bigger and have been wealthier than Poland, wonder why he didn't put them in his title.

Why should he choose them rather than Poland? Why should anyone take offence at the article which isn't an example of 'anti-Polish sentiment at all'? Even though the very existence of this thread here suggests there is such a thing as Pol-Am internet paranoia.

UK, Ireland / WHAT IS IT ABOUT POLISH PEOPLE THAT MAKES THEM THINK THAT UK WANTS THEM? [309]

Somalia part of the commonwealth then Kangaroo? Yes , just as the sun revolves around our flat earth I have to agree

I'm sure you'll agree that British Somaliland was part of the Empire.

By the way, you haven't answered the question in the other thread.

Work / English native speaker without a teaching experience moved to Poland and got a job [66]

hat you can step off the plane and "teech Englisuch', you're going to get a nasty shock in today's Poland.

+1

There are always crap schools that employ people who don't know how to teach and pay peanuts, but at the moment the market is changing so such places have an ever greater supply of fresh meat. And the number of learners enrolling in such places is falling.

Language / Polish on the computer? [5]

The PoLish Programmers thing is easy enough to fix - just deinstall it via control panel. I only have English UK and Polish 214. You could probably delete Calibri, but I'm not sure that would be a good idea, better just to put up with that one!

UK, Ireland / Why can't unemployed Polish people on benefits just leave UK and go home please? [240]

It's not all skinheads and bovver boots now. A respectable organization

So some of them have bought cheap suits. Same people, same long list of convictions for violent crimes, same thugs.

more in common with socialist policies than fascist ones.

Stop being disingenuous. You know very well indeed that the dividing line between socialist and nationalist economic policies is inchoate.

Food / How toxic is industrial salt? (some food factories in Poland used it for sausages) [49]

how toxic is the industrial salt.

And we've established that it's very toxic indeed and that there's a government investigation into companies who have been selling it to food processing plants.

Have you stopped using antiperspirants? Do you choose carefully when buying a t-shirt?

I only use essential oils and don't wear tee-shirts.

Of course such cases should not be ignored and carefully examinated. The point is not to panic. On daily basis our organisms are dealing with carcinogens yet we still alive and we are the lognest living generations in world's history.

I think it's too early for countries to think about banning imports of processed foods from Poland, however we can't be too careful about this.

UK, Ireland / Unemployed Poles in Ireland : a crash course in milking the system [323]

Of course, their only option was to come to europe, bypassing dozens of safe countries along the way........

Their best option was to come to the country where they'd studied medicine, which they knew and liked.

The vast majority of asylum seekers are bogus.

Those who are granted asylum are far from bogus.

Work / My friend is looking for a job in Poland with a physics degree [32]

With these noted skills, is it feasible for him to try to look for a non-teaching job with his physics degree in Poland?

Not really. There are plenty of people with degrees in Physics working in quite bad jobs here. He would be up against strong competition.

Food / Cooking Polish kiszka [99]

It could work well like that but the result would be different. I just add big chunks of apple (red ones seem to work better than cooking apples) to the frying pan. I think that's how the French sometimes cook their version of kaszanka. It works with the potato filled Polish kiszka too.

UK, Ireland / WHAT IS IT ABOUT POLISH PEOPLE THAT MAKES THEM THINK THAT UK WANTS THEM? [309]

They are lobbyists whose sole function in life is to pester politicians with enough material and opinion to make them change or alter some sort of traditional policy or viewpoint that has been seen as normal for a long time.

Most lobbyists aren't think tanks and most think tanks aren't lobbyists.

Your behaviour shows you as exactly what you are: a disgrace to your race and to your country.

Yes. An oxygen thief.
