Life / Who is poor in Poland? [720]

But of course none of that applies to people who don't bother working and instead send their wife out to work.

LOL, you never cease to amaze me. All you have proven here is that Polish people work for peanuts in Warsaw and that real estate in London is expensive.

I was recently in Paris for four days with my family, and I use this as a comparison.

Again, all you have proven here is that the cost of living in Paris is high. IMO it was a waste of money anyway.
I can go to Disney World resort and stay for $69 per night. Ticket to fly to Florida is about $100 and food all you can eat is probably another $60 a day.

Free ketchup too :)

Life / What is the reason for POLISH jokes ? [486]

Yes Adolf lets turn this forum into a hate through humor forum against Polish people LOL

Polish jokes are harmless and there are gazillion of other jokes out there about any other nationality. So when you go up in arms about polish jokes you gonna look like a total puckerass every time .. I know that you can't read about this in any media so i forgive you, so take this tip and go with it.

I realize it's not entertaining or funny and really i hate lowering myself to a 10 year old level, mediawatch. but maybe all I can do is to save one or two starfish, but if that's what feels right to me, then I'll go.

News / For all Americans worried about Schengen in Poland, dont worry about it. [142]

very good point. I strongly assume that about 38000 (if not more) of them are Polish-Americans.

yeah, lol, my aunt is still there and she is overstaying her visa btw. Can someone "ask" her to get a life and come back, because my cousin is ******** to me that she takes all the money out of her account and didn't pay her taxes last year... WTF

History / What was it like in 1989+ in Poland when the Soviet house of cards fell? [237]

I only thing I regret is English is not my first language, so I cannot really convey what I think. I'll try

I'm not sure what exactly you're trying to say but if i read you right...

all I'm saying It's not too late to change bro.

My father is a male chauvinist, he would put women down and teat them like a shitpaper , like most Polish males did back than in Poland. He would never stand in line because he believed it was women's job to buy food and argue for the right price.

I must have fallen 60 miles off my tree because i can't really find any similarities between me and father now. One thing i've learned is that a woman can be a fearsome allay for the good or the worst in this ****** up world and she will never betray you if you treat her right.

Your measuring stick saying doesn't make much sense in the current reality. You simply have to be better than others if you want to succeed whatever the stick is they measure you with.

So you Havok think that to be sorry for some nation and wish them better fortune means laughing at them?

dude, you would have tricked me if i wasn't brought up Polish but my father is the same. Stop pretending and work on changing yourself. It's gonna be hard i tell ya.

escaping from their own country isn't always a good choice... and it's hard on many levels...

Sad, yes. Avoidable, No.

Thank you Ashley.

so you're saying that the only way to make a decent living for young Poles is to move abroad? :)

Yes pgtx, aren't you living in TX don't be hypocrite.

i think it's sad... :(

No it's not, girl, there are so many opportunities out there and life can be beautiful. You have to do something radical. If you want something to pay off you have to put everything you got in it. and there is no swimming back to shore after that.

OMFG lol,

See Antek you were laughing at Russians because you had Camels and quality clothing and they didn't... Your mentality hasn't changed since than and that's why you're posting pictures of your refrigerator online and you're pissed at Americans for having more with honest work. You are so funny LMAO. See this is why I'm laughing at you hypocrites. You are just silly as$ posers.

Let's try to solve the problem of this young, Polish couple, living in today's Polish reality:What do you think they should do to be on their own?

I know this is going to sound crazy to you all... But if i was in that guys shoes and desperate i would join french foreign legion and after a year i would bring my wife to France.

I suspect PF could contribute with new material for Polish Jokes. It's a gold mine.

Life / Who is poor in Poland? [720]

Poor is a relative concept

Indeed, Yes, I agree as well. You're poor in comparison with Germany but rich when comparing with Ukraine. Go get'em Poles!

Life / Who is poor in Poland? [720]

You're patronizing. The problem is that you don't know Poland and your husband has some issues with self-identity so his description of Poland is exaggerated, biased with his own complexes and generally baselessly dismalling. Society is not a homogenius group of people - there are some successful people and those who are not successful, certainly you don't have to teach Polish people how to live.

99% of Poland is occupied by Polish, 99% them went to the same public schools, with exactly the same programs, were subjugated to the same living conditions, norms etc etc. It's a homogenous society. Just to let you know I have no self-identity issues but I do have complexes though. I'm ashamed of dumb Polish people.

Maybe you should consider getting a better job than cleaning toilets and changing lightbulbs?

Have you ever been to a zoo in Warsaw? Do know if they keep kangaroos there? Are they poor too? They're Polish now, right? Go help them Harry.

Yes, Havok, some people cannot help for what they were born, although some education never harms.

I know, so get to it and stop posting pictures of your refrigerator, it's not impressive by any norms.

I think you completely misunderstood that political poster. I cannot help your narrow-mindedness and poor sense of humour

a political poster? lol, you should have taken a picture of shelves in a store not your refrigerator dummy. I remember vinegar was popular back then. Are you trying to teach me something Antek?

Havok, if someone here is not poor, he does not have problems to tell you this either. Then you calling it "showing off".
Do you now understand how hypocrite you are?

Antek come on, you posted a picture of your refrigerator with food in it. LMAO

I have seen American bassists showing a couch or a sofa with

You don't get it they're just into it. Just the same way people show off with their coin collection, or when rednecks compare who owns more stuffed squirrels or who has the best looking lawn in the neighborhood etc..

No one was trying to prove any point with that, it’s totally different to what you were trying to do. Trust me, if you would ask anyone here if they were poor they would just tell you. Yeah, I don't have a job and I’m dirt poor, my truck is falling apart, my house is a dump and I’m hunting raccoons for food.

Most people here would have no problem with telling you how it really is.

No the real question is can YOU do that

You don't know me but I know you as most of things you write here is about yourself. So I ask you again can you abandon that thing what you call "dumb Polack mindset"?

You mean, the envy, appearance of helplessness, chip on the shoulder, close minded approach to everything , xenophobia and bigotry and etc.. . Yah, sure thing Marisiu, considered it done.

Edit.

no need, i got your answer up there.

Welcome to the club. Hardly fair of you to knock other people for having exactly the same preferences, though, is it?

Considering the subject, preferences and necessities are two different things.

What you gotta do is realize that it doesn't have to be like that. You don't have to be poor, there are opportunities out there and all you need is to step away from that dumb Polcak mindset and learn something practical beside English.

Excuse me, what fast food place charge for extra ketchup? You had to make it up!

Do you know why? Because people would either steal it or try to take it home as much as they could carry out with one meal so all the stores started charging for it.

that's just arrogant to say... good job provoking people :)

Let me ask you a question.
would you go on a forum here in the US and try to show off with 4 PC's at home and post a picture of a refrigerator with food? It just doesn't make any sense, why are people so dumb on this forum Pgtx?

When you selling a house do you unscrew all the wall receptacles too?

Life / Who is poor in Poland? [720]

In Poland people don't sell properties with the kitchen appliances included, largely because buyers will say "I don't want those." and then want the most of the value of the appliances taken off the price (but the appliances left).

I know why, because they're poor and every stinking cent and dime matters there like it was a matter of life and death.
One time I've seen a woman arguing with a store clerk about being overcharged for extra 2 grams of meat. Really? You would waste your breath arguing for 10 cents?

I have seen people in Poland go to a fast food place and buy just the french fries and the store would charge extra for effing ketchup. My wife was laughfing at that for weeks and she wouldn't belive it.

My bud reassigned his apartment lease to me and sold me all his furniture and appliances for $400 because it was cheaper for him to just buy new ones than hire movers to move all that for him. The point is that every crappy toaster or a TV or a cooking pot is considered a treasure in Poland.

So Antek please stop trying to show off with 4 desktop computers and some appliances to us because it’s embarrassing. Your refrigerator may be impressive to other Poles but to the rest of Western Europe it’s silly to do that. God, I hope no one else is reading this forum but us…
