USA, Canada / What I don't get about Americans vs Polish [56]


I noticed that immediately. No eye contact, either.
They seem scared. Even here, some use riddles instead of direct and simple words. And that idiotic Polish szacunek with Pan and Pani acting as a barrier. It takes years to be on the first name basis at work. At least this is how it was when I was there in the sixties. If they will ever get rid of that nonsense it will be thanks to the American invasion right along with McDonald's and KFC.

USA, Canada / What I don't get about Americans vs Polish [56]

moved from

What I like the most about Americans is their openness and the ability to talk to perfect strangers. Priceless - especially now with all that damn social distancing. Just last week. I approached a guy in Wilmington to find out where I can have a burger and a beer. Before I walked away, he told me that he was there on probation, so I invited him to lunch but he was busy...so no go.

You don't have to explain any of that.

I was born there. I speak Polish. I am supposed to be emotionally attached. And spent two weeks in 2017 and three days on my next and last trip because I couldn't take it any longer when I realized that I was dealing with windup morons.

I will take cruizing the US every day.

Gays and Catholics - just as Poles and Jews - do not belong in the same sentence.
Gays are mentally ill and and no society can exist with just gays. An all-Catholic society is very viable and sustainable.

Why is everybody so shocked by the criminality or the stupidity of governments anywhere?

Just think about who wants to be in the government industry - the very worst power-hungry corruptable scum that lacks the ability to create, invent, design, sing, act, or start a business - many of them dreaming about being little Hitlers, as covid demonstrated it so very well.

The only thing they are good at is lying so maybe I shouldn't have included acting...

The first problem with any religion is it trains kids to be trusting and obedient - a clear case of child abuse. Later, they become adults who are trusting and obedient and easy prey for civilian criminals, army recruiters, and the who*res they elected.

The reason I enjoyed watching the US Open yesterday was that neither player ever took a knee and because I knew the Russian won.

Russians don't kneel for crime-ridden, low-IQ looting minorities. That's an American specialty and that is why I will never watch any US team sports.

USA, Canada / Poles Living in the Chicago Area [343]


This happens often when I am on the road and stop at a bar as I did last Friday. The locals see a stranger so they ask where I am from - most likely meaning where I live but I am never sure.

USA, Canada / Poles Living in the Chicago Area [343]


I intensely dislike "where are you from" questions. They mean not where I live but what hellhole I came from. They are telling me, indirectly and very politely, that all my efforts to get rid of my accent have failed. The follow-up question - when did you come here? - is even worse as the answer reveals that even 50 years is not enough to melt completely.

Easy. My kids never id themselves as Polish in any way. The only thing they know is that their parents have an accent.
