Are Polish people the most patriotic people of the world?

This question stems from typical Polish behaviour. They can never admit that there is something wrong with their country or people when speaking to foreigners but stereotypically they complain amongst themselves.

I have some examples but they can wait. What makes you people proud to be Polish? Why do you feel you are the centre of the universe?

Simple- you can say whatever you want about your family but when someone else (outsider) tries to do the same you defend your family. Works the same with the country. And guests don't complain about the hosts house, do they?

Yea, like you've never complained about your hosts on the following day or as soon as you've left.
I smell BS.

Yep, the great oxymoron that is the Polish character.

yep, this is common among my people. I don't know if it's a cultural thing or genetically hardwired into our systems ;)

No, it isn't.

Who are "They"? Your Polish friends? So you hang around with Idiots and complain about it? wow!

What makes you people proud to be Polish?

I'm not proud to be Polish neither I'm ashamed. I don't think that nationality should be the reason to be proud of.

Why do you feel you are the centre of the universe?

Why do I feel that you talk BS? Well it's obvious, isn't it?

Some Poles may well be like that, however plenty of other nationalities are too. And not all Poles are like that at all.
