you don't afford me that benefit

It would be hard to do after all what we have gone through together.... hahaha Don`t expect such wonders in the forum - it isn`t a fairy tale.

I see you are a bit depressed while I thought you were in combat mood when you tried to diminish me in your fawning posts to Polo. OK, I am a decent sensitive monkey which takes pity on disadvantaged lost people. I regret being so harsh on you and will try to forgive and be patient until the next time when you burst out. :):)

As for my No 1 at the bottom, it is traditionally

If you thought that I would mention Kania as the holder of the last place, you were wrong. Kania is only stupidly naive with his Russophilia. While Iron is truly evil. If he lived in Kielce in 1946, he would happily and proudly take part in the bloody pogrom of Jews there.

News / How strongly are Poles sure that president Duda defend Poland's interests ? [251]

That clown is damaging Poland`s interests all the time.

Mess in diplomacy
Israel fired at the Polish contingent during its attack on Lebanon. There are no casualties, but the situation requires a diplomatic response. The problem is that we do not have an ambassador in Israel, because Andrzej Duda does not intend to sign the motion to appoint one.

As for my No 1 at the bottom, it is traditionally Ironside who not only displays but also possesses the mentality of a nationalist murderer who feels terribly wronged coz he was born in times when Jews have already disappeared from Poland, thus depriving him of a chance to practise his murderous instincts in real life instead of only babbling in the forum.
Also, he adheres to infantile methods of obfuscation when he plays stupid and pretends he doesn`t understand the simplest logic in others` posts. He always demands to have basic things explained to him and then he lies claiming he meant sth else and demands new explanation and so on. He made a lifestyle out of it long ago.

otherwise he would even make it to the Top 10)

hahaha I sneeze at your human lists. I am pawian and need to be put on a special list for creatures like me. Ha!!!

I will never give up my views!

My No 1 is traditionally Feniks for outstanding intelligence, persistence and personal courage to admit she doesn`t know sth.

News / How will Polish-American relations change if Trump is elected president again? [528]

Yes, 2 to 1.

The first primary elections were organized by IV HS in 2008, when Barack Obama and John McCain were running for president. The second were held in 2012, when Barack Obama and Mitt Romney were running for president. In 2016, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump ran for the highest office, and this was the only time when the school results did not match the real ones in the US.

In 2020, due to the pandemic, the school primaries were not held.

News / Poland hopes to attract hard-working, trouble-free immigarnts - Ukrainian, Belarusians and Vietnamese [139]

Belarussian or Ukrainian migrants are the closest to Poles/Polesses when it comes to culture or language.
However, they still experience the fate of all migrants anywhere - the first generation will always be treated as migrants by natives. Sad but true and nothing can help it.

Here is an interview with a Belarussian woman who has lived in Poland for 6 years and has already realised she will be perceived as a migrant for ever.

onet.pl/styl-zycia/onetkobieta/bialorusinka-o-polsce-to-nigdy-nie-bedzie-moj-dom/cnqkc4e,2b83378a

- I've been living here for six years, my grandmother was born in this country, and I still feel like a stranger here. For Poles/Polesses, I will always be like that. I even have friends whose parents were Polish, their first language is Polish, but they grew up in Lithuania or Belarus. Nobody treats them as locals.
- The people I meet here are very nice and open. If they pay attention to the accent, it is to praise it. I have never encountered xenophobia
At the same time, Tatiana notes: - Showing me that I'm not from here is not negative, but it's not positive either.
According to the portal kresy.pl, according to analysts from the Picodi.com service, on January 1, 2024, 310,000 Belarusian citizens had a Polish PESEL number in Poland.

Study / Various education and school issues in Poland. Opinions, stories, controversies. [940]

r American President Herbert Clark Hoover

I had to find out why. Wilson is more known in Poland than Hoover.

In early 1919, Herbert Hoover became head of the American Relief Administration, which was to help rebuild post-war Europe and organized humanitarian aid for people affected by the war. One of the largest beneficiaries was Poland, which Herbert Hoover visited in August 1919.

- It was a triumphal journey, and his name was widely known in the Polish press and journalism. Next to President Woodrow Wilson, he was the most popular politician.

riticize me for not doing so

Because it was you who made that post, imbecile from sewers, not me. It is your moronic duty to say a few words about what you post. If you still don`t understand such basics, it means your fellow rats in the sewer are more intelligent than you. Now go and eat what Cargo left you know where. Ha!!!!

I know that's not what this is though.

Actually, it is!!! Yes, flat pieces of wood I cut off from the trunks of the plum tree and birch branches. My wife asked me for them but didn`t explain what for.

I will have to think

No need to. The case is closed. hahahaha

Are those 2 different types of mushroom

I see you got fixed on johhny`s attempt. :):):) No, forget it coz he was joking and me even more. Think from a completely different perspective.
Hint - this riddle is connected with things I talked about in another thread.

PS. I must admit I find it amasingly fascinating that posters can`t see what it really is. I was sure it would be an instant guess riddle.

Is it dive bombing?

Yes, exactly.

As for your previous answers, yes, they are all correct. Terribly sorry, I somehow overlooked your post. I am getting old. :(:(:( Another proof of it is that I provided the same idiom within a few days.
Shyt, I am becoming demented like Novi!!!! That`s what I have always feared most.

Clue please.

Hmm, can I ask how you look for those idioms?? In most cases it is enough to translate directly word for word.

So, check jump in Polish. Then check on and the bomb. When you google the Polish sentence, you will get it immediately. It is very simple.
