News / How will Polish-American relations change if Trump is elected president again? [812]

I don't like feminism because it is Marxist-based, a nasty ideology that teaches women to hate men.

You're sounding just like Novi now.

I don't know of any women who are men-haters, myself included. I think many women wish men would pull their weight more around the house, helping with kids etc but that's a very long way from hatred. Maybe you know some extreme types but I think your idea of feminism is largely a myth.

It is a similar case when a modern woman claims she needs to 'find herself'; it translates to she wants to look for a new dick.

Or maybe she just needs some space and time for herself. Not everything is about sex.

I had fewer problems pulling women than you average Joe.

Course you did ;)

Travel / 12 month car insurance for cars on UK registration [4]

Does anyone know if this is still available

This company offers cover for up to 365 days. Price will depend on your car and driving history:

sterling-insurance.co.uk/european-car-insurance/

Saga used to do this but no longer do

They still do with Saga Select or Plus levels of cover:

News / Was Charlie Kirk popular in Poland? [597]

Kirk was only 1 million times more influantial than those two.

So his life mattered more?

Current and former state legislators from both parties and other elected officials were among the 1,500 people in attendance.[

She was an American politician and lawmaker whose death was equally as shocking as Charlie Kirks. Out of respect and courtesy, one would think that Trump would have attended the funeral, but he was apparently playing golf at the time. Biden and Harris did attend.

aside from that, there is a lot of truth in it

Well I have to hope that it's not from the male point of view in that satirical sketch...otherwise there's no hope for you....

It's not as if he chose weak opponents for a reason.

After seeing some of his debates I would say that he liked to win, which is much easier if you have a weak opponent.

A serious question for the PF Americans.

Why is it that the assassination of Melissa Hortman and her husband earlier this year didn't receive anywhere near the same degree of outrage as that of Charlie Kirk? Not only that, but Trump and Vance didn't even bother attending the funerals. To me, that shows a total lack of respect. Thoughts?

Because women can talk BS for hours, and they often do not know when to finish. Waffling on and on about nothing

You could equally be talking about some of the PF men with that statement.

When I think of you, Iron, this Harry Enfield sketch comes to mind 😂

News / Was Charlie Kirk popular in Poland? [597]

I think Charlie Kirk was only attractive to neophytes and people generally not very sophisticated.

My observations from watching a few clips of him is that many he debated were very young and with limited life experience. Therefore, his opponents were easy to verbally defeat because they were lacking in skilled debate. He also had a tendency to talk over women and interrupt before letting them finish.

Some of the questions were obviously known in advance to him as he was reading from notes he'd prepared.

turning fence sitters toward Trump

Considering Kirk was all about the family unit being the most important thing, I find this strange given that Trump has 5 kids from 3 different marriages. He's hardly an advert for matrimonial bliss.

Parliamentary prayers and street shrines across Europe prove otherwise.

Because he's become a Christian martyr since his death. People are horrified because he was killed for his views.

Prior to his assassination he was largely unknown outside the US.

In a Wetherspoons, people are drinking not in a public space but in a private establishment.

Yes, but I was addressing your point of westerners drinking in the evenings when it's clear they also drink in the day.

you are full of sh*t.

Predictable response when you don't like the answer. If you don't like Poland then leave and stop whining.

Only in Poland is it normal to start the day with alcohol.

Bollox. You're talking about alcoholics who will start the day with alcohol regardless of country.

The biggest difference between Polish and western drinking cultures is this: westerners drink in the evening and often at bars.

Try going into a Wetherspoons in the day. Full of drinkers.

I can guarantee that every time I walk down my local high street, there will be drunks sat somewhere either drinking or fighting with other drunks.

Life / If you lived abroad, would you like to have a Pole as a neighbor? [93]

"All the Poles are going home" is a nationalist lie.

Where did I say anything along those lines? I'm not disputing numbers of Poles living abroad. What AntV was talking about was the difference between those leaving and returning. These days there is decreased emigration from Poland due to the improving economy, and more are returning. For example:

News / Was Charlie Kirk popular in Poland? [597]

please refrain from suggesting that "both sides do it," as the vast majority of the violence originates from the radical left.

Is this supposed to be some kind of point scoring exercise?

Capitol Hill riots, Charlottesville car-ramming, El Paso Walmart shooting?

you wouldn't be in any of the above categories, would you?

I'm centre-left but that's it. Why you persist in trying to put people into boxes is beyond me. Go back and shove your crap in the designated thread and spare us all.

I wish you all a slow and painful death.

The irony. Both you and PAK, two of PF's right-wingers, denouncing the left for violence while advocating for it yourselves. You couldn't make this sh!t up.

radical leftist fvcktards who burn buildings and respond with violence

People that commit acts like this are extremists at the far end of the political spectrum whether they be left or right-wing. The vast majority of people on either side of the divide would not advocate for violence.

You appear to have a problem understanding this.

I'm not cheering or glad about what happened to Charlie Kirk. No-one should be killed for their beliefs. As others have said though, he was largely unknown outside of the US. Most of the vigils and memorials for him in Europe are because he has now become a Christian martyr.

You talk of the left and violence but it is you, along with Novi, who are wishing ill-will towards PF members who dare to disagree with your worldview.

Language / Game - guess Polish idioms/sayings in direct English translation - part 2 [816]

literal translation doesn't make sense.... that's the whole point!

Not sure why there appears to be so much confusion with the thread title........

'fvkking a cat with a hammer

Waffling on and on about nothing in particular with very little information conveyed?

they're not gonna go easy on you or 'they're not gonna treat you with kit gloves'

Sort of fits with the meaning I found.

to not treat someone like a fragile object/stick... I don't get that part.

To be honest, the more I read the more confused I got with this one.

Has this been solved or not because I'm slightly confused....

Google's translation is incorrect.

So is it not to do with sticks/sticking at all in any context?

I was doing a lot of reading and found 'they'll throw the book at you', but I don't think that's right.
