Life / Differences in Polish, American and British mentality [237]


That's just lame. Do I really have to tell you why that's lame, or are you going to pretend to be mature now? His parents moved to America, and he grew up there, and he obviously likes where lives. Is he like the Messiah in Poland? Will Poland collapse just because he has chosen a life in a country he likes? Look, bash him if he bashes you, I don't ******* care, but don't spread that nationalistic bullshit here? (The world's changing and people are migrating in case you haven't noticed!) I mean, nobody's telling you where and how to live your life either, and *if* there *are* people who are doing just that, then you'd only have yourself to blame for listening to them.

Are foreign workers from the Ukraine who work and live in Poland traitors too? Or from Britain? Or China? Or Holland? I mean, if I'd ever move to a different country, I know it'll be for love and for a bit of freedom, so there's no ******* way I'd let anyone call me a traitor because I want to live *my* life.

So let's get real for a second, shall we? America has an all-volunteer army, and since he didn't volunteer for the army, he's not ever going to attack Poland, and since he's not the freaking President either, he can't be held responsible for the actions of his government. Look, responding to insults is one thing, but now you're just being funny. I mean, do you have any idea how many people on this forum you've just compared to a traitor? (Think!)

Thank you?

;P

Life / Differences in Polish, American and British mentality [237]


Haha! Well, you seem to be stuck on the same forum, wasting your time in the exact same way, bored out of your skull, not too happy about a few things. (I guess we all have a few things in our closets?) My point? I'm still smiling.

:)

Off-Topic / Penn and all I owe you an explanation... ref to Polish vs. British vs. American [38]

You don't have to be the man. Just be a man.

You'll see that when you get older, people around you will start to ignore the physical aspect more and more, and the same goes for material wealth. Just be somebody people can talk to, alright? Because that's all you're going to have when you get older and when the novelty of being young starts to wear off.

So don't fuck yourself up to impress the ones who don't care about you and just be yourself. Get to know some people who are genuinely interested in *you*, and not in that little charade you're putting up every day. Oh, and cut the racist crap already, because I know for a fact you're not exactly a racist.

If you're doing well for yourself then you have a reason to be proud of yourself and I wish you good luck. Why do I wish you good luck? Because I *am* happy with who I am, and I don't have to prove jack shit to anyone. (That's called confidence and peace of mind.) Oh, and eventhough half the world seems to hate my ass for being a bit different now from how I used to be, I'll always remember that it's better to be hated for what and who I am, than to be loved for what and who I'm not.

But if you insist, and if you want to be the man, just know that there are plenty of guys out there who are better at it than you. (And the same goes for them.) Okay? Can you chill the fuck out now? I hope so, because I really hate sounding like your dad.

;)

Yes, PB, I was talking to you.

Life / Differences in Polish, American and British mentality [237]

Oh great, I guess everyone's having their period now? Aren't some of you supposed to be millionaires? You know, rich, careless, happy? (I'm starting to believe I'm better off broke!)

;P

Feedback / How many hours a day do you dedicate for PF and how often? [21]


It all depends on what I'm doing? Sometimes hours, sometimes minutes, sometimes seconds. (Some weeks I'm on, some months I'm off!) I guess it's all good when I don't have more important things to do, or nothing to get excited about, because when I have I'll be far away from the keyboard!

:)

USA, Canada / Moved back from Canada to Poland:). Here are the reasons why. [868]

I don't have one.

:P

Love / Why do frustrated men ask silly questions about Polish women or girls? [42]


I don't know, maybe you should ask them? Oh, you just did. (My bad!) But seriously, what makes you think they're all frustrated men? For all we know they're bitter old spinsters, or seven year old virgins who are curious about Polish chicks.. (Or girls who want to find out how certain guys feel about Polish chicks?) Or maybe, just maybe they're bored *stiff*.. (Literally!) Okay, I guess that's my intellectual contribution for today, so have fun and knock yourself out!

;)

Have fun!

UK, Ireland / Polish community in Northampton (any success stories / bad experiences?) [20]


Yeah, but you can't compare cancer patients to people who choose to live in a community. Hey, I don't know about your dictionary, but a community is something else than a sporadic meeting you know!


Just tell me I'm annoying and I'll be happy. (And maybe I'll actually shut up.)

;)

UK, Ireland / Polish community in Northampton (any success stories / bad experiences?) [20]


Is it?


Really? And you think you'll earn more in comparison, if you take into consideration that the cost of living also increases accordingly?


Computer? Skype? Telephone? Holiday? (No need to live in a Polish community!)


No, I'm implying you should make a conscience choice when you swap countries, and money alone isn't always the best reason to leave your country behind. Basically I'm just saying that it makes no sense to surround yourself with Polish people and all things Polish if you're planning to stay in England.

:)

Have I mentioned that it's okay?

News / Which modern developments harm Poland? [83]


Just a minor technicality.

;)

News / Which modern developments harm Poland? [83]


You should translate those lyrics for all the people who don't understand, but it won't change my opinion. Polish people are exactly the same as people elsewhere. (Generally speaking of course.) For those who still have a lot of growing up to do: Everything's been done before, so whatever you want to call modern isn't as modern as you think.

:)

Old news, really.

News / Which modern developments harm Poland? [83]


None, because people will always remain people, no matter how conservative you want to make it sound. (Behind closed doors and all that!)

;)

It's okay.

UK, Ireland / Polish community in Northampton (any success stories / bad experiences?) [20]


So you think Polish immigrants who live in Polish communities are somehow going to socialize with English people more often than Polish immigrants who actually choose to live in English neighbourhoods?


Hey, I'm just questioning the logic of wanting to leave Poland behind while wanting to remain as Polish as possible?

:)

Just for argument's sake, as usual!

UK, Ireland / Polish community in Northampton (any success stories / bad experiences?) [20]


I beg to differ, especially in these times of individualization and disintegrated social cohesion, not even mentioning all the side effects wich labour migration has on communities throughout Europe. What's your point anyway? It certainly doesn't make any sense to expect your host country to be like home. I mean, if you want a Polish way of life in a Polish community then you should probably stay in Poland?

;)

I'd like to stress that it's okay.


So you'd move to let's say.. England, to find other people who have an interest in Polish cooking?


I believe you.

;)

UK, Ireland / Polish community in Northampton (any success stories / bad experiences?) [20]


You know, hatred aside, I think it's ridiculous to form Polish communities in a country that is not Poland, and of course this goes for any group of people, belonging to any nationality, who reside in any other country than their own. I mean, I've heard a few lame comments about the Dutch and our so-called inability to adapt, but I guess the Polish take the cake these days? Seriously, I don't think it's very clever to migrate to a different country, and then pretend you didn't want to leave Poland?

;P


They have the same culture as the rest of the Europeans, really. (Just a bit more Catholic!)

;)

It's okay.

UK, Ireland / ENGLISHMAN JAILED FOR MURDER OF POLISH GIRLFRIEND [47]


I think it's you who needs to learn the lesson though, because you're the one who still doesn't understand we're all people, and that we all share the same ancestors. Instead of complaining about foreigners, did you know that white guys are extremely popular with Asian, Arabian and Indian girls? (Why not?)


It's a world-wide problem, so that's a yes. (Which just illustrates how much crime goes unreported!)

Love / Polish girlfriend may be pregnant - what girls from Poland think on having a child without marriage? [54]

Happened to me once. I asked for a DNA test.

;)

Read my previous post? There are countless stories which never get reported. Just like a cop who gets drunk on the job has more news value than a citizen who gets drunk on the job would ever have. Same goes for minorities. You don't have to keep silent about men who are dangerous, but you *can* do that without tarring whole groups of people with the same brush, because skintone really has nothing to do with these kind of dramas. (It's all about Psychology here!)


Hey, you don't have to mourn her if you feel emotionally detached, but you could show some respect for life and people in general, wether they look like Vanilla, Caramel, Chocolate or Duo Penotti! (Men and women!) Feel free to talk about their choices - in a respectful manner - if you're honestly convinced that you're the better alternative for them, but please try to remember that it's *their* life and *their* choice to make. Conclusion: No, we can't do anything else but better ourselves.


I'm going to throw one hell of a party if he ever sees the light! I still have the faint hope that we'll welcome Jarno back to the human race one day! (I'm an optimist!)

;)

UK, Ireland / ENGLISHMAN JAILED FOR MURDER OF POLISH GIRLFRIEND [47]


Yes you did. You were talking about fishing in the wrong water being unacceptable..


You were using a metaphore, but it still means you approve of such behavior, since you've mentioned that it makes you sick to your stomach to see foreigners who are ''stealing your women''. (Which is funny because you're foreigner in Poland yourself!)


Do you know how many Caucasian males are involved in women-trafficking world-wide? You think such criminals never hurt, rape or murder European women? How many news stories do we hear, read and see which involve women-trafficking? Zero? Once in every while? (It still happens every day!) Feel free to draw your own conclusions.


Jeez.. Here we go again! There's nothing immoral about sex. It's natural! You know, guys have a penis and they feel attracted to women in most cases, just like women have a vagina and they *actually* feel attracted to guys in most cases. (Oh no!! How Shocking! How Immoral!) I'm sure you can do the math??

Some people are honest, some aren't. Some people are loyal, some aren't. Some people believe in free love, some don't. Some people get bored with their partners, some don't. But seriously, when you're cheating on your girlfriend and you stab her to death when she says she wants to leave you, there just has to be something seriously wrong with you! So don't even *try* to compare certain people to murderers or call them immoral just because they have different ideas about sexuality. Thank you.

:)

UK, Ireland / ENGLISHMAN JAILED FOR MURDER OF POLISH GIRLFRIEND [47]


You've never known that woman personally, so why you feel the need to drag an innocent victim through your racist filth really is beyond me. Shocked? I seriously doubt that you and shocked are even known to eachother! You don't see what's wrong? Try this: It wasn't her fault that she got tricked into a relationship with a jealous, possessive and cheating man who *obviously* has mental problems, which is probably why she wanted to end the relationship in the first place..

UK, Ireland / ENGLISHMAN JAILED FOR MURDER OF POLISH GIRLFRIEND [47]


You're not using the murder of a young woman to spread your racist views, are you? Just in case you were; You really shouldn't do that, because it's about the lowest thing that a person could do.

Love / POLISH GIRLS... wake up and prove you are respectable.... [135]


Did you know that people from Pakistan are perfectly capable of writing English without spelling mistakes and grammatical errors? If it's not too complicated for you, then could you please explain to me why foreigners on Polishforums almost *always* are examples of bad grammar and behavior? (Unless someone is trying to stereotype them on purpose?) Maybe you should also try to keep in mind that most Pakistani guys are actually looking for a Pakistani or Indian girlfriend, due to culture..


Nothing wrong with that. (For as long as the men are willing to buy them drinks!) I believe in equality just as much as you do, but maybe I word it differently.

;)

Love / POLISH GIRLS... wake up and prove you are respectable.... [135]


I prefer to use my head for thinking, really. Working usually is something I do with my hands.

;)


Yes it is extremely low. No, of course it doesn't have much to do with race, but good luck with trying to tell these dumbasses anything about love. (Or respect!)


Yeah, funny, isn't it? Me neither. I sense a whole lot of that too! (And I suspect I'm not the only one who does!)


I guess it all depends on who will stay and who will go.

:)

Love / POLISH GIRLS... wake up and prove you are respectable.... [135]


I take it you actually believe these fairytales? I mean, don't we all know it's some racist who's pretending to be someone from Pakistan, trying to convince the more gullible people of how evil everyone from Pakistan is? (My bad!)


Why do you care about white people so much? You're Greek. Mediterranean. (Not that *I* care!)

;)

Love / POLISH GIRLS... wake up and prove you are respectable.... [135]

Not only yours..

;)

Love / POLISH GIRLS... wake up and prove you are respectable.... [135]


Not over here, they're not!

xD

Love / POLISH GIRLS... wake up and prove you are respectable.... [135]


You really couldn't be more wrong, but maybe you should try talking to a couple of women who have been divorced or disappointed a few times? And plenty of girls are attending University these days because they actually prefer a career. Some girls actually like their freedom just as much as guys do. It's 2011, you know? (Not 1950.)

;)

Love / POLISH GIRLS... wake up and prove you are respectable.... [135]


Which shows you have self-respect *and* class..

:)


Really that's all you need to know, so nevermind these guys who are projecting their own insecurity on women like yourself.


Do you really?


Then why are you telling them to wake up? Why are you telling them to prove themselves to be respectable when all they need is your respect? What do you think? That your idea of respectable behaviour is the only idea which should be respected? Are they not good enough for you the way they are already? (Think!) I mean, some girls want to get married, and some girls really don't. (Same goes for guys!) My point is that you should learn to respect them all the same.

;)

USA, Canada / Think you're Polish (and live in the USA)? [161]


64% in some areas, but 1% to 16% in most areas. 21% in total. (Average.) It depends on if they're open greenhouses or closed ones.


I know. I've known a few of such people myself. I've also paid someone's bills for three months, to prevent him from freezing to death in his own home. (Back when I actually had a pretty good job.) It only happened to me a few times when I found myself inbetween jobs, having to pay everything at once. (Bad timing.) I've never been broke for longer than two days though.

:)

Love / POLISH GIRLS... wake up and prove you are respectable.... [135]


How about you guys prove that you can and actually *want* to treat them with respect? See, a girl can *be* respectable, or pretend to be respectable all she wants, but isn't it true that guys should be *willing* to show them respect as well? (I mean, what's the point of being respectable if no one respects that?)

;)

Or am I missing something here?
