Life / Neoliberalism and family formation in Poland [100]


They haven't been dropped:

"Tate and his brother Tristan are currently awaiting trial in Romania after being charged with human trafficking, rape and forming an organised crime group to sexually exploit women on June 20, 2023, along with two Romanian women. A trial date is yet to be set."

His message is the very opposite of that statement.

This interview with him says it all for me. Guess you are one of his admirers as you are actually repeating almost verbatim some of the the stuff he comes out with. If you can't see what is wrong with this guy then there is a problem.

Sadly, quite a few men on this forum.


That's about the size of it! Prisoner Cell Block H!! Love it

I can't see why. Being assertive and standing up for oneself doesn't mean being aggressive. Sometimes the two get confused. Rather that than be a doormat.

OK, I get that from the mechanic situation. I was getting confused with trying to link Ivan Denisovich with prehistoric cavemen. Lol. Fed up with asses now!

I sort of know what you're trying to get at but I can't put it into words. The guy has all the knowledge and Mark has now outlived his usefulness I'm finding the clues too confusing.

Tunnel vision in my opinion. I'm getting fed up with hearing from many of the men on here how if women don't have those traditional views they must be career hungry leftists who will end up alone full of regrets. One extreme to the other. If women want to be stay at home mothers and are in the position to do so, that's fine, but many women want a little more out of life and why shouldn't they have careers too. Men just don't like the fact that the status quo has shifted.

Fighting for survival.

Probably still not right but someone has become tougher, harder, stronger?

To talk about something irrelevant or trivial.

Greed or lack of self-control?


Saying that something is no good for anything, useless, a waste of time?

Has this got anything to do with going downhill? To be in a worse condition?

Food / What Polish foods and brands do you miss when you go to other countries? [216]


I've never seen that over here. As with the egg, I like broccoli but can't imagine it on pizza.

I could go for that. I like olives on pizza too.


Me too. I like egg but not sure I'd want it on pizza.


I've tried eel but not smoked. Once was enough, it was vile.

It might not matter so much to younger people but with older people it's showing a lack of respect. Clearly, you don't care if you come across as rude. Ryszard wie lepiej!

I would hardly call the US 'civilised'. It's the land of fruit and nutcases. Unless you take a trip to Poland you'll never have to address any Poles anyway, so why are you whining?



More arrogance!!

I don't tend to engage with strangers because I've got better things to do with my time. Get this through your thick head. If I want company, I'll go with a friend for coffee. If I'm on my own having coffee it's because I like it that way. I don't want somebody asking me to join them. Make of that what you want but you're talking out of your arse.

@Pawian. That first quote in post 465 is not mine, it's from Novichok

I'm not sure how.....


They wear embroidered patches on their leather jackets, often it's the name of the club they belong to e.g Hells Angels MC

People linked by a common or shared interest? I really don't have much idea. I would associate patch mainly with bikers but it's not going to be that.

Once again that arrogance is on display. You just don't get that Europe is not the US. We are more reserved and we like our privacy.


So Poles should change their form of address just to suit you? Tosser.

A dance that women ask the men to do. I don't think that this is what you meant though.

Or just maybe they don't see the point in having a mindless conversation with a total stranger.


Why? I would find that intrusive.


Bizarre.


That is their problem. The arrogance of thinking they are better than anybody else.

Of course I was aware of the meaning! That's what I meant in post 1548, but I presumed you hadn't understood what I meant as you asked " What is a joke?" You could also say, " You're having me on". It means the same thing.

A wind-up is a joke or trick when someone deliberately tells you something untrue.
