According to ILGA-Europe, Poland is the most homophobic country in th EU...

... we took 1st place for the fourth time in a row. I knew we had to be best at something in the EU, I just wasn't sure what it was.

Polish Commission for Language Purity

What? Is it some sub-commission of Polish Language Council (RJP)? Interia and other sources say that it was the Comission for Standardisation for Geographical Names Outside the Borders of the Republic of Poland (KSNGpGRP)...

... oh, well. Whichever bunch of f*cking eggheads and paper-shufflers did this - fair play to them! At least they got one thing right in their useless, parasitic lives. :)

News / THE ARMY OF POLAND - THE REALITY [493]

a bunch of rationalizations to deal with the cognitive dissonance that they feel

Spot on, Maf. Look at Bobi's recent fairy tales about the amazing might of the Ukrainian army. Rationalising the Russian army's failure and perhaps already justifying the losses in the coming counter-offensive. If even intelligent people like him are susceptible to resorting to this psychological mechanism, then what defense is there for simple, state-TV-watching folks?

For 25 Zlots an hr he should get a ton of people esp immigrants.

I doubt it. The Ukrainian lady who cleans up at my place, does the ironing etc. charges 45 pln/hr. 25/h sounds like a summer job for a high-school student, not serious full-time wages.

Erm... have you watched any Russian state TV? Or listened to their "diplomats" and politicians? The adjective 'normal' just doesn't collocate with any of what's happening there.

We did not expect them to resist. We expected them be in a state of shock and confusion.

Yes, I noticed you tend to underestimate your enemies.

24-48 hrs before the attack

Are you kidding me? Everyone knew what's going on for weeks before the "blitzkrieg" began. You can't attack suddenly and unexpectedly in the age of satellites, internet etc. The moment you start gathering troops, everyone and their grandmother knows what you're doing.

the rest of Europe

"The rest of Europe" is 500 million people (with slightly fewer percentage of drunks, HIV-positive, and degenerates than their Russian counterparts), incomparably stronger economy and armies that would wipe the floor with Russians in 3 weeks. Of course, we will never find out because even Ukrainian peasants armed with whatever handouts Europe and US could spare are efficiently stopping you.

However, let's just calmly assemble the strongest land army in the EU - just in case. :)

The Bobko's nation has other plans there

I know.

Ukraine was stronger at the beginning of the war than Poland will be in 2035.

What did they need our Grads and T-72s for then? And all the trains with ammunition for their post-Soviet artillery? Also, if they were so phantastically strong then why did you attack them with a hundred thousand or so of moderately equipped soldiers? And why, now that they are even more phantastically strong, you keep attacking them with T-54s and other ancient stuff? Questions, questions...

Meanwhile, let's calmly get those Abrams and HIMARS, just in case. :)

terms of number of tanks

The quality counts as well - we are getting brand new K2s and Abrams, as well as F-35s, HIMARS and Chunmu on top of other modern stuff. Ukraine is using mainly old post-Soviet junk.

Besides, Ukraine is at war, it's obvious their standing army is larger than Poland's 2035 peace time forces will be. Voluntary conscription has been introduced, however, as a first step to train reserve force in case of war.

I understand that Russia would prefer a weaker Poland and that's precisely why the army is being strengthened.

raging like a wildfire

There are worse things than war.

If Russia attacks Poland, the war will make your current altercation with banderopithecs look like a kindergarten brawl between retarded children.

Ukraine right now is many times stronger than Poland will be even after the completion of its program in the 2030

Don't be ridiculous. After the completion of the army reform we will be able to take on both Russia and Ukraine (if need be) with a finger in our nose.

@Bobko

Not necessarily. Si vis pacem, para bellum etc.

However, I still think the most essential ingredient in strengthening Polish deterrent potential is missing: our own nuclear weapons. If Pakis are allowed to have, then Poland should join the club as well.

Russophobe

It's such a nasty word. Let's better say Russoskeptic or Russorealist.

As for the weapons - we are getting them. If we have to eat stale bread and drink only water, so be it. No matter if it's PiS or PO after the elections, there is a nation-wide consensus that we can't fall into the hands of Mongol hordes ever again. And we are increasing the army in numbers too - it's already happening.

Poland's army is not a fighting army

Underestimating the enemy. Again. Brilliant :-)

Life / In need of good Polish jokes about Polish culture, people, etc [239]

Thanks, but that's hardly a meltdown. Oh, well...

Anyways, here's a good Polish joke:

Polish lady goes to apply for a driver's license.
First, of course, she had to take an eye sight test.

The optician showed her a card with the letters

'C Z W I X N O S T A C Z.'

'Can you read this?' the optician asked.

'Read it?' the Polish woman replied, 'I know the guy.'

Another poor wanker on a dole, annoyed that he's so worthless that he lost his dead-end job to some Pole who doesn't even speak the language properly. Hilarious :)

Life / Do young Polish people believe in their religion and God? [150]

But religions absolutely do change over time...

Unchanging reference point doesn't mean that a religion itself will remain unchanging. It will, however, survive much longer than any other system of ethics devised solely by humans with humans as the only point of reference. I have no idea why but that's how it seems to work.

Life / Do young Polish people believe in their religion and God? [150]

"Can human beings create a system of ethics without a supernatural element?" I say.... yes.

Such system of ethics, however, lacking a transcendent, eternal and unchanging point of reference would be unstable and subject to change (if men created something, men may as well change it). Stable ethical systems need a supernatural element.

Off-Topic / Curious Books of PF [50]

Here's one from my Russian collection...

unpopular books

I would certainly recommend this book to a certain bald KGB ars*hole, in his dripping-with-gold palace and stolen billions, as well as to his court and media wh*res. It would definitely be unpopular among them. :)

We should definitely continue. There is something magical in making other nations feel bad about themselves whilst at the same time caressing our national ego.

History / Profound discovery - grievances towards Poland [6]

feelings or fairness regarding historical moral standpoints and fairness

You have just discovered the great secret of Polish moral superiority. Well done. That is indeed a profound discovery, Grunni. It's a good thing you came to live in Poland (in Norway a lot of aspects of Polishness would remain alien to you). I am proud of you. *thumbs up*

leads to a tendency of feeling bad, mediocre or simply worse

But you see, our neighbours actually are bad, mediocre or simply worse, so it's only fair that we should make them feel so. If one day they choose to stop being bad, mediocre or simply worse, we will have no other choice but to acknowledge that. Until then, however...

Life / What to do if the neighbors is too loud? [40]

you have no garden

That's the whole point - I'm not very much into cutting grass and weeding flower beds.

can hear the neighbours and they can hear you

Maybe in commie blocks. At my current address I heard my neighbours once in 2016 (a rather loud argument) - nothing since then. It depends on the neighbours, I suppose. :)

and then there is the fire risk...

Actually, there are way more fires in houses than in flats...

przelom.pl/39938-jakie-sa-statystyki-pozarow-w-polsce-i-kto-wykonuje-sprzatanie-po-pozarze.html

Blisko 70% z tych zdarzeń, to pożary w domach jednorodzinnych. Można więc śmiało stwierdzić, że pożary zdecydowanie rzadziej wybuchają w mieszkaniach.

transl. "about 70% are fires of single-family houses. We can clearly see that fires break out significantly less often in flats"

A Prussian, a honorary Breslauer and a great friend of Poland - such unlikely combinations can only be found on PF (including Russian imperialists in love with all things Polish :)).

but of weak convictions

I have very strong convictions but only cows never change their minds!

It would be easier for me to have even stronger convictions if the atavistic inclinations of my heart were more in accord with geopolitical interest of my country. Alas...

My personal Top 5 would be: Bratwurst Boy, AntV, Bobko, Grunni (Kashub1410) and the-one-and-only Crow. Espana gets a honorary mention - a perfect villain. :)

Life / What to do if the neighbors is too loud? [40]

one level flat is much easier to navigate than a house

True. I do, however, like my 2-storey layout - with 3 bedrooms and a bathroom in the upper level, where only family has access, and visitors are entertained on the lower level only. It definitely has its pluses. :)

Life / What to do if the neighbors is too loud? [40]

living in houses like most normal people do!

Erm... I consider myself a rather (just rather :)) normal person and I quite enjoy living in my apartment in Gdańsk (2-storey, five rooms, two bathrooms, underground garage, 6-8 minutes from the city centre) and I wouldn't exchange it for a house. It's just too comfortable to live in.

but people prefer to live in houses

Not really. Not everyone is into cutting grass or fixing roofs and fences. Some of us prefer the comfort and laziness of living in an apartment. Maybe that's because we are and have always been city dwellers for generations. People with peasant roots understandably have soft spot for houses - they like to have their obejście even if they don't keep cows or chickens anymore.

As for Gdańsk, and I suppose most large cities in general, overwhelming majority of people live in flats/apartments of various kinds and I don't think you could describe them as "abnormal". :)
