Novi coz he suggests killing the uncle.


Yes.
Novi, answer the questions.

You`d better do it now coz I won`t give it up and whenever you post in this thread, I will always ask you this question. Until my last hour or yours, whatever. :):):

So????

Will you enthusiastically endorse this option, too, when one of your granddaughters is raped by an "uncle" ?
Will you help her raise the child as a good grandpa??

Answer the questions.

If I could I would, but I can't, so I shan't. Simple. Just swallow it and stop complaining.

History / Trying to identify locations of WW2 photos from Poland and elsewhere [3]


Polish historical fora, for example. There are a few big ones.
E.g, historycy.org/
Go to their WW2 board and ask a question about your photos. They will do their best to help you. Use Chrome browser for instant translation.

Real Estate / Is my water bill too high? [11]


Why are you so rude to people who only seek advice in the forum and didn`t harm you in any way???

News / Abortion still under control in Poland [2986]


Hmm, your penchant for going off topic is truly amassing. This thread is about abortion, not communism. :):):)

Lublin???

Feedback / Is the Polish Forums a positive or negative image of Poland ? [30]


Yes, that`s exactly about me. As a rightist, I have always pointed to PiS` lousy socialism in economy. They managed to dupe millions with socialist handouts and the result is one of the highest inflations in Europe. Fortunately, I am here to open their eyes and help them see the true socialist nature of PiS.

Real Estate / Is my water bill too high? [11]


Now you need to do a simple calculation - how much water you have used since you moved in and pay for your share only.


This means you should pay the whole bill covering July-December coz you were the only tenants occupying the property in the period. Simple.

It seems you put too much stress on the physical aspect of females. Don`t forget they also have brains which they use more effectively than males do.


Don`t be such lazy bones yourself. You should also share the house chores with her. Do alternative cooking.


As well as the child care. Relieve your woman by minding your kids.

Semi formal, of course.


Now you are following the style of Nazis or Soviets??? Or Tsarist Russians punishing rebellious Poles for their Risings??

By demise I meant collapse or downfall in terms of political influence, not complete expiry or end.

Feedback / Is the Polish Forums a positive or negative image of Poland ? [30]


More usually means merrier but certainly not in case of cons. :):)

Now it seems we have a balance between open-minded and conservative posters. Let it stay so.

History / Poland and Britain started WW2 [356]


Nope, they didn`t. Polish British French alliances had a few secret provisions and the main one was that their main enemy was Germany. The attack by the USSR wasn`t taken into account.


Exactly! :):) Poles insisted on recognising Germany as their arch enemy.


Bollox. They declared war on Germany on 3 Sept. If they hadn`t cared, they would`t have done it, right??

As for the final part of your post, you got lost too much so I prefer to abstain from commenting.

Real Estate / Is my water bill too high? [11]


Didn`t you take down the water, gas, energy meter readings upon moving in? That`s the first thing I do after signing a contract with a new tenant.

If you didn`t, now you have a problem. Sending you the whole bill looks suspicious.


It still depends on what the contract says. And - was the property let to other tenants in July August September period??

News / Abortion still under control in Poland [2986]


That is why I said women aren`t even allowed to have abortion which is legal. That case shows the true face of the oppressive state that PiS has arranged for citizens.

I am optimistic, though - Poles will reject rightists like they rejected communists in the past. Sooner or later I will witness their demise coz such is the course of history.


I have always voted for parties which supported the compromise.
I have always encouraged my female students to stand up against chauvinistic male oppression.
I have always taught my male students to respect women`s rights. And sons, too.

Are you satisfied??? :):):)

Ha!

Life / Finally, wife acquitted after killing her abusive husband [22]


Nope, they didn`t. However, they testified about earlier cases of abuse coz the woman had confided in her friends or close family that her husband had beaten and raped her against her will.


Of course, being a woman doesn`t mean you are automatically a saint. But in this particular case three courts were pretty sure how to rule. :):)


Yes, but too often they also feel it is their duty to accuse and demand sentence against common sense, at any cost, just to show how efficient they are.

History / Poland and Britain started WW2 [356]


This forum is quite tolerant and welcomes all kinds of views on condition they aren`t against the law.
Stop being such a cold wet blanket. Strange attitude for a Brit.


Britain and France on 3 Sep on Germany for invading Poland on 1 Sep. Google what an alliance means. Germans were fully aware of the British French Polish alliance so it was them who started the war. Simple. :):):)

News / Poland - Germany's 5th largest trade partner [33]


PiS needs an enemy to survive. Their favourite method of ruling the country is frightening Poles with a catastrophic threat and then persuading them that PIS is the only factor which is able to remove the threat.

It seems to be working on many here.

Language / What does the phrase 'mój drogi' mean? [9]


You need to check the intonation and facial expression when sb is saying mój drogi to you coz it can be either romantic or friendly.

I suppose you got a friendly one but it may be a good start for a romantic development.

Study / Various education and school issues in Poland. Opinions, stories, controversies. [1006]


The number of depression cases among students has become a real problem. We, teachers, are truly appalled. Never before did we have to deal with such a surge - two, three students in each class. In the past it was 2, 3 in the whole school.

News / Hołownia - a rising star in Polish politics? [94]

Szymon Hołownia seems reluctant to ally with Tusk`s KO/PO before the coming elections. He prefers a more independent approach which is no surprise coz this year`s will be his new party`s first elections ever.

polishnews.co.uk/national-congress-of-poland-2050-szymon-holownia-as-chairman-he-replied-to-donald-tusk/

Szymon Hołownia was elected its chairman during the first national convention of the Poland 2050 party in Łódź. During his speech, he responded to the appeal of the head of the PO, Donald Tusk, regarding a joint opposition list in the parliamentary elections. He stated that "all options" should now be on the table, and "the decision should be made after carefully counting all the options."

PS. Semi casual zero tie garb. They have no idea it was me who introduced that style in Poland about 20 years ago.

History / Life in communist Poland - personal relations [503]

I remember the hype about taking vitamin C tablets. Our parents made us take one every day. Sometimes, when they didn`t look, I deliberately exceeded the limit coz I always considered the tablets amasing - sweet on the surface and sour inside. That quick change of taste in my mouth seemed fascinating to me.

Now a story which I don`t remember coz I was too little, but was told later on: once my sister ended up at the Emergency with medical poisoning after taking certain medication which resembled a vit C tablet.

I wonder why the parents urged us to take those tablets. Didn`t we have enough vitamins in daily nourishment? Were we, my sister and me, reluctant to eat fruit?

I have to think hard to recall those ancient times now.
