Travel / Poland in photo riddles - part 3 [818]

The noodles with soft cheese is a National dish in Slovakia - called something like halusky s brynzou

It's quite nice with a glass of their young wine

And one of the simplest Italian dishes is the same - cook pasta, add a spoon of ricotta, a spoon on water from the pasta, salt, pepper and garlic. That's it - tastes amazing if everything is done quick

I have been educated in the US so perfectly entitled to comment

Have to say that in my own classes the standard of math was high but this was some years ago.

None of you guys can do "math" either. What was wrong with your teachers ?

Golden Cow is right about one thing - only the gullible and the weak believe in the Epstein hoax. Great that he has set the record straight and now will let Ghislaine out of the slammer

Law / Gun control in Poland: should Polish people be allowed to own guns? [1070]

There is remarkably little violent crime in Polish police stations either

Even by your own standards it's a weird argument to make

If you don't want foreigners in office then don't vote for them.

Seems a simple enough solution.

MAGA complain about some dumb stuff

Yes - in Europe such uncouth decor would be a mark of bad taste. I want my guests to feel at ease, not like they are sitting in a theatre set

Off-Topic / USA News and Poland - part 16 [1071]

Whatever you call it - it's ugly and gauche. The kind of decor a thieving North Nigerian oligarch would have on his yacht

Talking of wasting money what's up with Golden Cow's office - doesn't anyone have the courage to tell him all those gold things are in bad taste, in normal times let alone when you are supposed to be saving money

A fitting backdrop to his idiocy though

Travel / Transport adventures in Poland [103]

Really trite statement

Ever tried bringing a 5 person weekly shop back on public transport with a toddler in tow ?

Shoved your kids out at 7.30 to walk to kindergarten in the snow and dark ?

Rushed someone to the doctor from your suburb on public transport with a couple of changes - turning a 10 minute car ride into a 40 minute trip ?

Oh no - that was just the last time Golden Coe chickened out

What is parasitical about selling you cars and medicine ?

News / How will Trump's trade tariffs affect Poland? [74]

He will back down. Late next week. He always backs down on tariffs

Old Bobko was here a few days ago saying the EU were working on a deal that would be signed in 2 days LOL

Turns out that was some 3 page piece of boilerplate just so the flunkies could show Golden Cow there was some progress.

Law / Gun control in Poland: should Polish people be allowed to own guns? [1070]

JR it takes about 20 seconds of using Google to find that a heavy majority of polish voters are opposed to easier access to firearms.

There is some slight movement however - in one poll, 20% of men think there should be easier access. Those are probably the kind of saps who are voting for Braun and Mentzen. Women remain 97% opposed.

Aren't you Americans thinking of getting some younger people to run the country ?

Off-Topic / Stock Market Talk and Trading - part 2 [743]

I am a complete crypto sceptic but I don't think Golden Cow will allow it to crash - it's too important for his angry young men voters and it's a scam he actively earns money on

I only have a small amount but for the second year running Bitcoin is my best performing assets

The trading costs are very high though

Same in Poland if you are in moving traffic including at a stop light

You can have 1000 aircraft carriers but that's not how to win wars in the 21st century. It didn't help in Iraq of Afghanistan

In six months Golden Cow has made the US much weaker - respect and soft power has evaporated and will take decades to recover

Easy way to find out Bobko - wait until Friday night.

If it hasn't happened by then it will be a few more weeks. France is on a long weekend starting Friday and they are not going to interrupt that unless it's something really important like the cycling.

Off-Topic / USA News and Poland - part 16 [1071]

Yes I do. And it says exactly what mentioned. That in two days the US is going to send a letter, nobody in the EU has agreed to even read that letter. The only agreement is going to be to postpone the deadline to never never.

And of course, the German Chancellor is way too polite to go on recorder saying that golden cow is an idiot.

Off-Topic / USA News and Poland - part 16 [1071]

But the FT does not say that - it says that the EU is going to sign some kind of fake ass preliminary document that keeps tariffs at 10 percent while they continue negotiations. Same 10 percent that Britain has

They will continue them probably into next year.

Nowhere does it mention signing in 2 days. What it does say is that in 2 days the US will send some bogus letter to the EU. That letter will sit on someone's desk unopened until September 1st.

Do I want the US to succeed ? Yes. But like most humans it is always funny seeing a vain bully who doesn't like it when people ignore him.

And nobody is guessing Golden Cow's method. it is well known - issue tariff threats and then back down when the market falls, blame it on Biden and then repeat the whole stupid cycle a month later.

Off-Topic / USA News and Poland - part 16 [1071]

The EU hasn't signed a deal Bobko - they haven't even answered Golden Cow's letter. He is merely talking about tariffs that he intends to impose, but will eventually chicken out from when the bond market reacts negatively.

Same with Japan, Australia, South Africa, Brazil, Turkey and even North Nigeria. None of them have answered these dumb letters.

The deficit will not decrease by more than 5 percent.

No factories will be moved to the UK, that would be plain nuts. A few might move to the US but I think more likely they will tell Golden Cow they are moving and then do nothing. That's because nobody respects him

No idea why simple economics is so difficult for you Novi - you assume that A and B are one person, not a country made up of lots of different factories and farms, some of whom will do well by tariffs and some of whom will be crushed. There is no point trying to explain that to you.

MAGA and math(s) don't get on well together LOL

Off-Topic / USA News and Poland - part 16 [1071]

Er....hate to break it you but we can do tariffs too

MAGA math(s) at its finest

And you call us morons !

Off-Topic / USA News and Poland - part 16 [1071]

They are apparently going to send some letters today. One day before the supposed deadline

I don't know what's wrong with email or phone. Maybe Golden Cow has got some new stationary that he wants to show off with tasteful gold embossing LOL

As if we are all sitting here waiting for the postman

TACO is a real thing Joker - nobody is lining up and no "deals" have been done since the dumb ass Liberation Day

Even yesterday he said those 3 deals he has signed can be renegotiated LOL

August 1st is simply the new date that he he makes an ass of himself

And this copper tariff will be gone by next Wednesday

You think there are mayors in Britain who are not assimilated ?

Khan was born in London, to British citizens, his dad was a bus driver. He was voted into office by British citizens twice with a big majority

Can you name some policy of his which is "Muslim" ? He is a centrist politician with the same kind of policy positions as Tusk or Duda
