News / SHOULD POLAND HAVE NUKES?? [154]

That is, other than behaving like human beings towards Russia.

History taught is it doesn't work with Russia.

Language / Dupa - what a beautiful Polish word [103]

You did a terrible job translating this into English.

No, he didn't. It was obvious.

You were thinking about:
Move your ass.

Life / Why women's rights are not respected here in Poland? [160]

said "I would" because YOU addressed ME directly with this:

I didn't mean you personally. For one you are not a doctor to carry out the procedure.

Inside a pregnant woman is a live human being.

Depends what you count as living. We declare people brain dead on regular basis.

Abortion is inevitable on human society. The question remains what will be allowed by society. I think less restrictive law would find support in Poland.

would wait until it comes out naturally...

Well, you never had to even consider having to do that so not a surprise.

Even in cases where the foetus is unviable

That is a different case I would admit. But I still think that 32 weeks gives plenty of time. It's just 5 weeks for term time delivery. Tbh I wouldn't give that much time for non medical terminations anyway.

Food / Taste of food in Poland vs other countries [188]

Not that common there

I must have my eyesight checked then as most supermarkets have shelves full of them and I see beans on toast, baked potatoes with baked beans and so on and so on.

That is a lot but it is not really taking care of her, is it?

It's not that we don't like to take care of you,

If the women is taking care of herself, the kids and the man what is left to you?

our women still take care of themselves, us, and the kids much better than your Western women.

Such a shame you man are such big babies incapable of taking care of themselves...

However I must say I'm grateful I was raised in Poland where women working was common and female doctors, factory workers on managers were everywhere.

Life / Any good Polish films to watch? [112]

The main doctor was not great e.g. denied me my usual comforter ( a bottle with tea) saying I was too big for that (true but I think sudden separation from your family, illness and hospital ordeal are not the best moments to change that) and some other things but I managed to get it off the nurses.

I remember two things:
- being on a cold high table and having my arm put in a metal frame (for IV).
- a member of staff doing inhalations to kids and me looking from around the corner with other kids, the nurse calling my name and come on, you are next and me running away laughing.

Life / Any good Polish films to watch? [112]

I was in hospital in the early 90 as a kid. The staff was great (with the exception of the lead doctor) and the only concern was the visiting times ( very, VERY strict in those times)

The parent staying with a child I believe is a common practice for quite a while now ..

No one wants to talk about 1670 (Office style mockumentary)?

It was already discussed here. I enjoyed it a lot.

Somehow...

How? Not your megalomania extended to your country but arguments? And how US paying for it is connected to elections in Illinois?

UK, Ireland / Corned beef & Cabbage are typically Irish? [98]

impossible in Poland

Happened few times but I would say mostly when people are young adults. Later in life the prosaic part takes over

History / Pol-Shorpy Photo Thread [950]

@Poloniusz
I'm not a boomer and he has way more credibility in my eyes than you. For one because he sees Poland as it is and not some fantasy land from the past like you do.

Well, he does seem to know more than you. Including Polish language
