Do many Polish people in America hate Americans?

All countries have dumb people but a lot of Americans know of nothing outside of America. The students that i stayed with thought the film Eurotrip was an accurate view of Europe.

See I hear this from Euros all the time but I have seen plenty of people who know where Austria is. I think you like to perpetuate this to feel superior. You keep repeating the same urban myths as fact.

I know you will hate to hear it but we are just as well versed in geography as you are. I don't use Leno and random online 'tests' as my data however.

Don't confuse apathy with being unintelligent. I know plenty of Europeans that have never heard of Belize.

What kind of dumbass people are you hanging around with?

Darius I met some Americans and they were smart, intelligent, well educated ordinary ppl. That's how I know. I know also if you talk with some polish trade school graduatee you would be shocked how dumb ppl can be

Well Beelzebum we have lots of universities and higher schools in Poland and there is some diversity in quality of education... but still it's controversial to claim that polish master degree is worthless. It depends on the Uni and specialization someone gradueted.

OK, let's put it straight man. When I was in Poland I rented a house from a farmer. He got some serious cash from the EU founds and bought himself a brand new tractor. What happened was, the next Sunday him and his family drove this tractor to the church, all dressed up (suit and tie and all). How will you call this?

Maybe some Americans don't know Geography and History but at least they don't drive tractors to the church. Now c'mon guys, quit this bashing crap because it's gonna be some endless bull**it going on here forever.

No, I said what I saw from the people I met. I know that some Americans do know about Europe, the girl i was staying with had been studying in Austria when I met her in Italy. She was a very very clever girl.

pity most of her friends were not.

I don't hang around with dumbass people, i'm stuck working with them.

I know where Belize is, its in Central America next to Guatemala.

You meant the ones who have the zeal to travel, to learn and develop. I'm not sure that these are people representative of the majority.

You haven't met an American, what they call, high school dropout. For that matter, speaking with many American high school graduates you would inevitably reach conclusion that the "high" in the school's name stands for getting high on drugs.

It was funny today. At my teaching school, there is a teachers' page with answers. I was doing a Writing class and there was a sample answer. Rather than use the word subordinates, they used the word inferiors. I thought that it spoke volumes for the attitude of some paperheads here. Superiors and inferiors :)

All I will say to it, you were out of options to find the right people or you weren't very choosy about your friends.

Superiors and inferiors :)

what a great combination, lol

I said I met a very very intelligent American girl, the only reason it did not work out was because she lived so far from me and I went skinny dipping with her 18 year old sister.

I remind you - discussion is: Do many Polish people in America hate Americans? not Do many Americans are stupid or whose education is better or which country has bigger wages...

and my question is do you really still telling jokes about Poles??

He drove the tractor to the church to have it blessed by the priest.

Thats why she liked me in the first place. I got a cheap holiday in America out of it, i was not complaining. :)

I never heard a single Polish joke while I was in the states, then again, we're dumb hicks and don't know about the existence of Poles.

She liked you because she had a romanticized idea of Europeans like people tend to do when they don't know realities. Then they see past the accent and realize they don't have much in common with you. That and they can't get over the weird extra bit of skin you guys have down there ;)

Women with hairy legs and armpits is natural too but most of us wouldn't prefer it ;)

Girls who have their first trimmed willie are usually complimentary and prefer it. It's a hygiene thing more than anything. I have heard tons of girls complain uncut guys don't know how to wash themselves right.
