News / Was Charlie Kirk popular in Poland? [500]

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.

News / Was Charlie Kirk popular in Poland? [500]

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? [500]

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.

otherwise, it would be too stupid to sue over such nonsense.

Not when her reputation is being sullied and has made headline news. I would sue under those circumstances.

show how the sausage is made?

I would say that this definition is similar but the details are often unpleasant rather than just hidden.

give away trade secrets"?

I think this one is closest in meaning.

to make someone gray

To deceive someone and put them in a very difficult situation?

Strange they're making so much fuss about this, especially as a politician from Minnesota and her husband were both murdered recently and there was far less said, especially from their government.

If I had to guess it's because he was a Trump ally and a personal friend of his attack dog, Vance. Completely different reaction from Trump to Melissa Hortman and her husband's assassination. Double standards much?

I'd never heard of Charlie Kirk, and as others have said, no-one is cheering his death on this forum. I feel for his poor family.

What PAK doesn't know, he invents, such is his obvious hatred for anyone who isn't right wing.
