Last entry on this topic. Just as an egg on a frying pan is not a chicken, a human embryo is not a person. 🥱

Yes, all day long I deal with people who sometimes do not understand rational arguments. After some time, I stop arguing, I just nod and do my thing. Well, they had a chance.

Do you realize that according to this stupid theory, when you make scrambled eggs for breakfast, you eat small chickens? Anyway, can you even make scrambled eggs?

Travel / Transport adventures in Poland [105]

I also remember my ride on the express train from Katowice to Warsaw in the 1980s. The train was traveling at an unprecedented speed of 120 km/h on the so-called coal line. My guest from England was traveling with me, a young boy, Alien was also young then. I wanted to show him Warsaw. The train was, as usual, terribly overcrowded, but I managed to find my Englishman a seat in the compartment, and I left the compartment and stood in the corridor. As is usually the case (in Poland), a moment later I entered into a conversation with a random young traveler who was also standing in the corridor. We talked about everything and nothing, and also about my guest from England with whom I was going to Warsaw. And then, after about 15 minutes of our conversation, my English guest stood at the compartment door and said he was bored and asked if he could join the conversation. At the same time, he asked me where I knew the boy I was talking to. When I told him that I met him exactly 15 minutes ago. he didn't want to believe me. And I suspect he didn't believe me until the end of his stay in Poland. Well, a difference in mentality.

I don't know why he compares New York with Poland. Everything is very expensive there. He should compare the cost of living in some American Goathouse where Novi and co live. Then the costs would not be so high.
