Where do you read in the newspapers that Poles are "always overreacting" and "ridiculously sensitive"??
I formed my opinion about Polish culture by actually living IN Poland for a very long time. I am not sure what you are on about with the newspaper quote but the media seems to be your primary source of information rather than real life experience. Have you even lived in Poland or do I as an American have more experience in the place than you?
Maybe you are confused as to who "Poles" are. I am finding out that expat Poles and people with Polish background are even worse than those IN Poland. They seem to be compensating or something.
