Love / My Polish girlfriend's mother called her a prostitute because we live together [113]

Her mom clearly doesn't like you. Are you not Caucasian?

As for her mom calling her a prostitute, well, sometimes all marriages/relationships seem like prostitution.

Language / Need advice on how to improve Polish language skills [134]

You're over analyzing the polish language. All this focus on the technicalities ofthe language are confusing you (and me!!).

Many years ago when I was learning French I started by doing what you're doing - grammar. I felt like i wasn't getting anywhere so I switched over to conversation classes. Then I really started learning the language. Try it.

Genealogy / Name "Mieczyslaw" / "Mietek" - Help on background! [11]


Are you sure she didn't say Maciek or Maciuś?

UK, Ireland / Are Poles in UK really that big of a deal? [112]

The reason why brits can complain about poles is simple: You can't be racist when complaining about white immigrants. Now if yu start criticising Somali, paki etc immigrants then you risk being labelled a racist.

History / Poland's biggest historical blunder? [341]


They asked the communist puppet government in Poland to attend victory celebrations. This government was not repressentative of the people.


You have to admit that the British are history's biggest butchers.

Love / Goal: Meet a nice Polish girl! [60]

I lived in Poland for a few years and can honestly say that polish women are not much different from Americans women. One thing you have to watch out for is gold diggers and the fact that many of them want to stay in Poland so if your plan is to bring a polish Girl back to the states with you it might be a problem. You'll be popular Among the women in Poland though.

Life / IS Poland in danger of becoming the next multi cultural sink hole? [201]

Muliculti is coming to Poland, no doubt about it. Poland will be full of third worlders on the dole. The west will make sure this happens.

News / Don't let Poland become like my country, France. [630]

God help poland if politicians like lodz_the_boat flood the sejm. Lodz why don't u leave homogeneous Poland for a while and try liviing in the west for a bit. Maybe that will fix your ****** up multiculti logic.

USA, Canada / Chicago's 1.1 million Polish Americans celebrated Constitution Day [47]


It's not difficult. Polish-Americans don't need polish passports. There's nothing stopping them from travelling to see their families on their US passports so why bother getting the passport?

Poles living in the former USSR "risk persecution" to get the karta polaka because many of them want to move (difficult process) to Poland to improve their lives.

USA, Canada / Chicago's 1.1 million Polish Americans celebrated Constitution Day [47]

Chicago is a great city. I went there on a business trip some time ago and was pleasantly surprised.

USA, Canada / Chicago's 1.1 million Polish Americans celebrated Constitution Day [47]


Maybe they don't need it. It really isn't too difficult to get a polish passport.


I'm interested in how many americans and canadians of scottish descent have british citizenship? There are many cultural event for these "scots" who call themselves scots and wear their kilts and tell everyone they're scottish every day......yet many are 3rd, 4th, 5th generation canadians of scottish descent. Many would have a hard time finding scotland on a map or even name a single scottish city.

Many people here acknowledge their roots, no one has a problem with that - except you, a grumpy brit living in Poland who has never crossed the pond.

Love / Hot Polish girls in clubs - why don't they dance/talk with the most attractive men only? [148]

Meeting "hot girls" in clubs is probably the worst place to meet women. 9 times out of ten they are sluts and only after your money (especially true in poland). This is probably why they are going after not so attractive men, they can probably smell their money.

USA, Canada / Better life in USA or Canada? - expats opinions and your comparison [143]


And how is the weather in canada different from most of the northern US?


Thanks for this post, it really shows how stupid you americans are when it comes to universal health care.

Feedback / Why are there so many on here, who do not like Poland [150]


Well many foreigners in Poland are not doing that great in terms of work and $$. Those who work there for foreign companies (like i did) are generally doing alright. The others (not all but many) who go there to teach english or try to setup some business struggle. The internet seems to be a a great medium for them to vent.

Life / How could things have gone so wrong (Poland church dress code) [195]

How could things have gone so wrong!?! What a terrible tragedy! A stara babka looked at a brit in shorts in disgust! God help us all!

It seems like you have to be british or you're wrong...

If you don't like the dress code in a place of worship, then simply DON'T GO THERE!

Do you also complain about mosques requiring people to take off their shoes?

Stop being so arrogant.

Life / Rules of Etiquette in Poland [22]


You don't speak Polish, don't try to pretend you do. You're British and the ukrainians knew it.


They're treated well and are most favourably regarded of all of Poland's neighbours.

UK, Ireland / Do Poles and EU Citizens exploit the British welfare state [129]


This is what i was going to say.

News / British man accused of molesting teenagers in Poland [74]

Molestations of Polish children by Brits (and others) is another one of those "tip of the iceberg" situations in Poland. I've read a little about this in the polish media but it seems like it is too taboo for get more attention. Right now "sponsorings" get more coverage (which is another problem).

Foreigners have to be screened more before they are employed in Poland. Well, i think all prospective employees should get more screening, this process is really pathetic in Poland when compared to other western countries.


I'm quoting this to highlight your disrespect of Poles (again).

History / Why did communism in Poland fail? [180]

People living under communism knew that life was better in the west.

Work / How can Americans of Polish descent get work in Poland? [22]


Forget about the work visa.

Get all your (and your parents/or at least 1 grandparents') documents and apply for polish citizenship at your local polish embassy/consulate. It will take some time and most likely will be a tedious process but it will make living in Poland easy in the future.

Love / Polish girls and the national sport: COMPLAINING HARD all the time [25]


Forget about solving it. Just don't date polish women.

USA, Canada / Travelling to Poland from the U.S. on a expired Passport [43]

The passport trap is no longer an issue. No one with a PL passport has been charged with presenting polish authorities with foreinger IDs and i don't see that happening anytime soon. No politician cares about it.

Life / Which cities in Poland have the most expats, and why? [34]


I agree with you delph. But don't forget about those Poles who pay to get into the Polish programme, they're no better than the foreigners paying to get into the English programme.

USA, Canada / Travelling to Poland from the U.S. on a expired Passport [43]


It is illegal but Polish officials turn a blind eye to this law. I've presented my Canadian passport to Polish authorities many times. A couple of times they asked to see both of my passports!

Travel / The British YOBs are back in Polish towns [68]

The police need to get to work and start dealing with these brits. In some countries the police goes easy on foreigners to avoid scaring off tourists. I wonder whether this is the reason why polish police are so passive or maybe their just lazy cunts...

Work / Salary and cost of living information - Krakow [257]

Ditto.

But there is one thing I can tell you: 8k pln/month (gross or net) is great for polish standards and will give you a better lifestyle than the average Pole.

Travel / Pics of Warsaw by the Guardian's David Levene [107]


Well most Polish cities do look "chilly." From my experience living in Poland, Polish cities only have a few places here and there that are aesthetically pleasing whereas in western europe (ie germany) most parts of the cities are well maintained. Poland still has a long way to go, but it's getting there.

Love / Polish girls' attitude towards different kinds of sex [88]

I hear my american co-workers talk about mexican women liking anal sex because it they don't recognise it as being sex. Somehow they think anal sex preserves their innocence haha.

News / POLISH GUY FROM LONDONG STALKING MADONNA...caught in her house... [12]


First thing that came to mind when i read this surname: haha

News / Polish people mocked and humiliated in Season 7 of House MD [60]


Well it may not be pleasant for poles to see this sort of thing on TV but it is true. Many polish women marry foreign men to get the opportunity to get away from poland or to just have a better life in Poland. Most people don't hear about it because ukrainian/russian women steal the spotlight.
