Love / Do Polish women have bad tempers? [49]
We all know the reason for Zimmy's remarks. Obviously, that's the kind of woman he attracts. There are a lot of men that would be better off with Asian women they can order around, but I can't help but feel sorry for the price some women are willing to pay...
ZIMMY is spot on with his remarks. Some girls

Ha! You should check out some third world countries! Some places, if you don't bring the chief a pound of kava, you might be paying with your own head!
Joking aside, I think it's acceptable that natives find ways to live cheaper, and make money off foreigners. When I travel, I tend to latch on to a native for local knowledge and especially discounts.

"define as 'centrist' any position which the Left considers too far Right and the Right considers too far Left.."

1826? That is pretty good, as far as that goes.
But "my heart feels empty"?? I understand you're trying to elicit sympathy here, but that's a bit over the top.
Good luck, though.

Work / Is it normal for companies/schools in Poland to be rude? [116]
I see just the opposite around me. People turn a blind eye to all the things that are fvcked up around them, and will defend their choice of a place to live tooth and nail. The final replay is usually: if you don't like it here, why don't you go back to where you came from.
You do need more people to b!tch to make things change, even if we're just passing through.
I think it's actually a form of homesickness in many foreigners - they focus on absolutely everything that's wrong with Poland in order to make them feel better about where they come from.
