Zrobilem bledy, tylko "Ja" byloby poprawne w tym przypadku, gdzie zaakcentowalem, ze JA a nie TY.
Normalnie nigdy nie pisze zaimkow po polsku:-)

Love / Why do Polish guys stare a lot? And what does that mean? [14]

Off the subject momentarily, but my experience apopos of nothing in particular with the Polish women I've met is that more than a minority can often come across like a bunch of dramaramas, that is, coming on forcibly loud, cocky, and willing to make a mountain out of a molehill at the drop of a hat!

I've heard from several of my students, that extended, perhaps "unwelcome" facial gazing, is also quite common in Brazil.
This applies to simply staring at strangers on the street, in the tram, train, wherever.

A young Brazilian man told me, if someone looks interesting to another person, perhaps even a stranger, or the Brazilians are merely trying to make friendly contact, that it happens a great deal both in the large cities and in the smaller towns.

News / Petition for War Crimes Reparations for Poland [126]

Concerning the thead topic, I quote the current title of the Yom Ha Shoah commemoration ceremonies beginning next month: "Auschwitz - Not Long Ago, Not Far Away".

Tough to draw that proverbial line in the sand, when you don't know who owns the beach.

No one has a patent on suffering, nor private ownership of memory.

Food / What do non-Poles think about eating the following Polish foods? [1450]

Doug,

If I want to eat "healthy", I'll nibble on some lonely celery stalks, maybe a carrot! If I want to eat elegantly, I'll dine on

a meal at France's best kept secret, La Pyramide, once I can afford itLOL....and if I want to eat WELL, I'll continue

stuffing my face with all the wedliny, kielbasy, czerwona kapusta and nice, crispy placki ziemiaczne I can possibly
(and legally) get my hands on, thank you!!

Golonki can be delicious, and that's a fact!

So similar to certain German dishes with which I grew up, such as "Eisbein" (as it's known in Berlin), I often barely noticed the transition to Polish cuisine

when I was over there, albeit far too briefly.

Life / Prejudice about Poles; Poland has changed [39]

The real almost dirty shame of it all is that Poland is a country which has given the world much of modern culture, not to mention science. from Copernicus up through Mme. ("Sklodowska") Curie.

Imagine a concert season without at least some offerings by Chopin, classic cinema without one major work by Andrzej Wajda, contemporary experimental theater omitting Jerzy Grotowski or Tadeusz Kantor etc.
