Seriosuly? As a Greek-Pole, Poland is the motherland of liquors. Who would want to switch nasty ouzo for highest end Polish vodka?

Oh brother...you know the answer to your own question Southern. It's a cultural thing just like it is with men. Also no, homosexuality is very sparse in a country that's over 98% Catholic....surprise surprise.

Can that graph you posted be any smaller? o_O lol

Also I love the new 'ads by google' insisting Alcohol Rehab Treatment under our threads. Lol I think it knows more of a solution than of the posters on here do. Who knew that google technology would one day take over the our very job on this forum? Creepy. lol.

Anyway, can ya' blame him? Have you ever drunken Chopin Vodka? The stuff's addictive.

But seriously...if there is a problem and I say this before it gets much much worse like it does with excessive drinking in the vast majority of relationships, insist rehab, helping/finding his problems/depressions and coping with them, or dumping him at last resort if things get out of hand....

Good luck! ^_^

Life / Racism in Poland - the future [558]


Worst logic.....ever. lol


I am half-greek living in the US and have never dealt with a single racist comment (some jokes) but that's all. Nor have I met a Greek-American whom by any means hates other Americans.


You can laugh at Utopia, but Thomas More had a grand solution in there about racism....


Stalin? A friend of the Jews? Is that a joke.....
I see his propaganda is still brainwashing minds over half a century later...

Well you know, in Asia, Africa, and the Middle East, over 95% of the people that live in these areas are of the ethnicity that correlate to the area....

ie, you might think of Japan as one, but 98.5% of the Japanese population....is Japanese.

The rest are mostly Korean and Chinese immigrants.

Just because the guy has a tint of olive skin he's Turkish, Greek, or even Roma (whom are very dark)? I've seen tons of Poles with that skin tone, I am Greek and I have pale skin just as I have met many Turks with pal skin as well.

Life / Poles are not racist [873]

Are you an idiot? During communism Poles were forced to learn broken Russian along with delusional and propaganda of false failing communism and Stalinism. Also, out of all the Warsaw Pact nations, Poland was affected the least, I would say all the Russians did were build military bases, take advantage of Polish resources, and leave their economy shattered for the decade to come.

Also they were teaching about the short periods of American slavery? Really? All Western nations (including Russia) bear the burden of using slaves, but at least we didn't make it widespread by building labor camps and forcing millions to death in the Gulags which was obviously a death sentence with impossible workloads and conditions. The slaves here weren't executed daily, forced to work in below 30 degree Siberian colds and had their families purged and/or executed. Also I don't know whats so non racist about the Soviet Union, in both their great purges and all along the Stalinist years millions were exiled, sentenced to labor camps, or executed based on their ethnicity. Stalin believes a great nation was one with no foreigners whom according to him were wither traitors to the Russian way, spies, inferior with genes and/or productivity, or poisoning the culture. Poles, Ukrainians, Jews, Germans, Scandinavians, and all other Europeans living there were purged of this. As for the "respected" Poles, the 150,000 living in Stalinist Russia at the time were exiled in the 37'-39' purge and more or less 20,000 executed or sent to the Gulags by the NKVD for refusing to leave.

Life / Fat People in Poland? [161]

It depends, I have been all over Poland and fatness in Poland is more or less natural. In other words beer guts, a bit thicker limbs or wider hips and thighs for the older/aged men and women. Not anything to the point where it's obese or significantly unhealthy but the natural weight gained with age. As for actual fatness and obesity I wouldn't say so much at all. Especially when compared to the U.S.

urszula

Right just like Hitler in Mein Kampf decreed it socially okay to find humor through society and media on those disabled, unfit, jewish, or even to fully label them as inferior.

Food / What is your favorite Polish Vodka? [653]

Luksusowa (polish for luxury) is a nice vodka, it's one of Polands finer and is considered a premium on the vodka market. It has a unqiue and smooth taste since it's a potato vodka. But it's just that, if you want a good potato vodka go with Chopin which overrides this one and is considered one of the world best. Also, whats with that bottle of Zubrowka you posted, isn't it supposed to have a green tint?

Best Vodka, or Polish Wódka?

So yes, I know there is another thread for this, but it does a bad job at answering my question. So recently I've been doing a lot off with Belvedere and Chopin; and like all Poles I believe that Polish vodka is the best. However is that true? I've heard that Russian Standard and Stolichnaya are also good, but with their prices they don't seem to compare. Also are Belvedere and Chopin the best in Poland like they claim? They seem too widespread, I've heard other people like Zubrowska the best. Speaking of that, is Zubrowska worth buying? I always see those bison grass in the bottle and think it's going to have a grassy taste or like some herbal drink. Please note I always drink straight and possibly frozen, so which do you recommend the most?


Zumbrowka!!! One of the most popular in all of Poland.

search google for: zubrowka bison grass vodka

Sorry if that was a bit out of my league....

Quite a few, Belvedere, Chopin, and of course Zumbrowska. You could also go Russian with Stolichnaya Elit (very expensive) and Russian Standard.

No good reason? There is no reason at all lol. I'm surprised the two even know of eachothers existences.

Polonia / POLES vs BULGARIANS [160]


Being part Greek and having been to Greece many times, Southern Slavs (which includes the Bulgarians) look very much distinct from your normal slavs, many even look Mediterranean.

Life / 3 reasons why you hate Poland. [1049]

lol yes it's also bigger than Greece, but I'm half Polish so oh well.

As for Guinness, great beer, but I never new it existed in Poland...lol.

Polonia / POLES vs BULGARIANS [160]

Yes, Poles and balkan people do get along. I am half Greek and half Polish and there are near a quarter million Poles living in Greece. ^_^ But then again Greece isn't always considered in the Balkans since it can be a term used to refer to the Southern Slavic states. Anyway, don't generalize upon all Bulgarians, I have met many good ones. That was just one idiot who didn't know much.

@CROW - well no, Greeks and Poles do have many ties. Why do you think there's so many Poles living in Greece? While Turks and Islamics aren't widespread in Greece, Germans are indeed. So "Germinization" as you put it might not be in full effect but it happens. I have already run into many German restaurants and bookstores here in Greece.


It already is, do you know how much of a workforce Poland provides to other countries, or how much energy resource is provided? If I'm not wrong Poland is the EU's biggest producer of wood and coal. Either way, with regards to the humanities, Poland has provided tons in my opinion already.

haha it's cool. It does feel a bit awkward being this is my first time ever posting a pic in a public place online.

Can I go?

What do you people think, I am half Greek and half Polish with genetic roots that are full 100% on each side and not mixed with exterior haplogroups.

Essentially my skin is much paler that this, this was during the summer when I went out a lot and to the beach. Now my skin is much the opposite. :-/

I attached the picture.


haha, my naked body looks like a corpse. See, I am anti-sun. When I do go out only my face and arms show. (I'm not to fond of getting tans or taking my shirt off. If you were to see me naked however (lol) you would see the skin color differences.

I understand what you mean. Before I couldn't tell much difference between Asians, but after having embracing some Asian studies I do. I am a half Greek and half Pole. My Greek side gave me dark hair and eyes and Polish side pale white skin. lol. Nonetheless I hate it when people compare all the Slavic nations together. Get over it people, they're not the same. Especially Poland which is half Tartaric and half Slavic. Also for those combining the Southern Slavs, you should probably go there and see for yourself, many of them look Mediteranean and have different Slavic features than those of the north.

Love / WHAT TRAITS DO POLISH MEN LOOK FOR IN A FEMALE? [34]

Hi Polonius! I see you have reposted this thread again; but rather changing females into males. ^_^

I will have to say that the same apply. Surely it's been psychologically proven that men are a tad bit different than women. However there is no hardcore research/study saying that they are different when it comes to searching for relationships partners. But nonetheless I am interested to hear what some people will have to say. Good luck.
