Love / I met a Polish guy but wonder what his intention is.. [35]


Holy crap! We often get such stories here but rarely get to hear what resulted.
So sometimes it does work out...
Good for you, SB. ;)

Genealogy / How Polish am I? What is the correct formula? [58]

While today it's more about them embracing/ asserting their blackness against whitey, what you guys are referring to is what was/is known as the One Drop Rule. One drop of black blood and you are black.


It's more than a dash. Any recipe that calls for 1/8 of the ingredients to be salt or sugar would be either very very salty or very very sweet!

Tell us what transpired in the past year or so. How the meeting and courtship and (seemingly) rush to marriage all came about between your thread start and now...

Excellent! Good for you! More girls should stand up for themselves and make such demands from men.


So sweet. Sounds like you landed a good one!

What a lovely story, SB. Thanks for sharing it. Good luck into the future.

Lol. I love this. :)

Life / Mental health problem or one of the grieving stages? Death and denial in Poland. [93]


This is still going on?!

Poor girl...

You're a good and loyal friend, BP. Many folks would have given up on her by now.

Life / Mental health problem or one of the grieving stages? Death and denial in Poland. [93]


I suspect this is bang on but due to the amount of time she's nursed this delusion there may be more at play. This is a pretty severe case no matter how you look at it.

Life / Hey, I speak English and can say F**K! Poles use the F-word to impress native speakers. [23]


It's not an adjective. Why don't you leave the thinking to the thinking people so you can focus on doing what you do best:

I too think that the drugs can be bad and are over prescribed these days. But also they can and do help some people. For some the drugs are their only hope for a normal life. And the more extreme the case the more likely meds might be necessary, imo. A professinal should decide.


See, but you're looking at it from a normal person perspective as to what a normal person might think and do. This girl is clearly not normal at present.

Life / Mental health problem or one of the grieving stages? Death and denial in Poland. [93]

Oh boy. That's pretty bad. Think of all the thought, planning and effort it took to execute this little exercise. That's a whole lot more than just some denial. And certainly her condition is not an act if she's going to this extent.

I've been thinking about this in regards to this poor girl...
Lets assume for the moment that indeed people have inside of them some mechanism of denial which is automatically switched on in order to preserve us from severe psychological harm; we go into denial so as to prevent ourselves further damage of complete breakdown. Ok? Now, for this girl's mind to trigger such a reaction and go into that -what we'll call "brain safety mode"- over the death of an old and ill father, this would seem to me to indicate that she likely had some sort of serious issues even before her father died and these recent events. I mean, sure, a loved one's death can be traumatic -devastating even- but for her to go off the deep end over it certainly seems extreme in the extreme, an overreaction to the expected event. I think this shows that the death of her father may be immaterial here and in reality may have had little to do with her present condition; if not his death then something else was likely going to set her off anyway. (Much as NoNonsense didn't need any particular traumatic event to set her off into loopy mode.) Does this make sense? There was nothing else in this girl's prior life that would indicate that she was, um, a little 'off'? No other instances when you thought she was maybe not normal or completely balanced?

This is as intriguing as a movie case. If I were you I'd consider contacting a psychiatrist on your own and buying an hour with them and telling them this girl's story. Maybe you could introduce this person to the girl as a friend and just get them talking?...

Life / Mental health problem or one of the grieving stages? Death and denial in Poland. [93]

Very well handled, BP.

I think your little story here today is quite significant. Sounds like she is starting to question it herself, leading her to investigate. And it is good that she saw the word "deceased" in writing, by someone other than you. Reality can't be far off...

Good. As the system favors criminals, sometimes justice demands that we take matters into our own hands.

News / How long will it take for the first 9/11 to occur in Poland? [55]


Indeed. It shows a fundamental lack of understanding of the problem.

But the real kicker is the absolute level of utter cowardice such a statement displays...
'Oh dear, so long as we are nice to them and appease them and we show them how multicultural tolerant we are maybe they won't hurt us. Boo-hoo-hoo...' [tremble]

What must such a person teach their own children about standing up to bullies? :s

Once cowardly simps start thinking like that the terrorists have already won. Because then the cowards vote for terrorist-appeasing Leftists as leaders which they are sure won't do anything to anger the enemy. Which brings us back to their failure to understand...

Let's get this clear right now: The Muslim scumbag terrorists hate and will kill Lib cowards just as much as they do others. There is no appeasing them, unless a country is willing to completely surrender to Allah and institute Sharia Law. Period.

Idiots shouldn't be allowed to vote.

News / How long will it take for the first 9/11 to occur in Poland? [55]

So anyway, that new giant statue of Jesus in Poland would likely make an inviting target for the terrorist Islamies.
Cue the Jesus-hating cowards to call for its removal so it doesn't upset their terrorist friends... :s

Yep. Same crap different century.
If Islamies had the armies and the hardware they'd be marching on Europe to.


Lol. Not likely.

Life / Homosexuality in Polish Culture [231]


Yep. Gay used to be considered a mental disorder until they got their sympathetic Lib friends in the Psychology industry to change its classification, not based on any science. The Left doesn't have much use for science when it interferes with their agenda.


This is prolly the most real advice here.

News / Conservative-liberalism (Laissez-faire liberalism), another utopia for Poland? [99]


Yes. Our Lying Liberal Media is doing all it can to cast the Tea Party as extremists and racists in order to marginalize them and their message while protecting Obama and his Radical Leftist agenda. This despicable calculated journalism malpractice the likes of which we have never seen before divides our nation. The Left truly will rip our country apart just so they can cling to power.

Be that as it may, what's that have to do with the Lying Liberal Media protecting Obama's agenda by casting every critic of his Radical Leftist policies as "racists"?

Because our language doesn't contain those letters and neither do our keyboards.

I don't understand. What is a forged parking ticket? Does he mean a fake parking stub from a timed car park garage?
Over here I've heard of peeps putting a fake parking ticket on their car -the kind the meter maid leaves on your windshield for an expired meter- in hopes that the next meter maid to come past will think your car was already ticketed and leave it alone.

Life / Political correctness in Poland [210]

The problem with PC is it starts with silly word games but leads to very real policy shifts which create further problems. In this case, for their not wanting to hurt school children's feelings, they are dumbing-down the education process. But the kids will come out feeling better about their less educated selves. :s

Misguided, feel-good Liberalism always, always, always leads to harmful unforeseen consequences worse than the problem they were trying to address.
