USA, Canada / Moving to Poland from Canada [39]

Listen Novi, I'm really not interested in arguing with your silly notion about Poland being inferior to Canada. It's different but by no means is it a dump.

If you want to keep on banging on about it carry on but please leave me out of it.

USA, Canada / Moving to Poland from Canada [39]

Spoken as a women:
A lot depends on your personality and expectations. You have to accept things will be completely different. Sometimes better, sometimes worse.

I think the social interactions in Poland are healthier for kids. Bonds tend to be fewer but stronger. At such a young age they shouldn't have slightest problems adapting.

Financial side will depend of course on what you guys can do for a living, are you both going to be working etc. But generally you probably will be a bit worse off.

You will be isolated unless you will really make an effort. Go out every chance you get. Accept invitations etc.

It would be good if you had someone you could observe to learn stuff. As Maf mentioned even shopping.

Good one.
Ah sorry, assumed you were joking...

Polonia / Possible Green Surge in Germany [118]


Considering that both had a female prime minister many years ago it is a no matter.

I wouldn't have anything against Turkish- German Chncellor but wishing for one? It's racism as well. What I wish for is that we will have people chosen that are best for for the job not looking at unimportant staff.

Polonia / Possible Green Surge in Germany [118]

True but noone claimed it does. You on the other made a strange comment hoping for that to happen. As if some kind of progress in itself.

I did too. My dog would find them . Few times my father judges them too small to survive winter.

Life / Paintings of artists from Poland? [192]

I like them. There is something captivating in them

News / Unfulfilled promises by PiS [559]


How is it any different than any other form of crime? If someone beaten me up on the street I could call the police. I don't see why it shouldn't work the same just because I'm married to the abuser? Or I am his/her kid?

And what system do you have in mind?

News / Unfulfilled promises by PiS [559]


Excuse me? Are you seriously telling me government shouldn't have any system in place to protect people from abusive spouses and parents?

Real Estate / Kredyt Hipoteczny and Alimony [23]

I liked ING. Not used them for years though.

Po polsku / Targowisko - Bazar - Handel [36]


Nie znam się ale jeśli to ma mieć jakiś sens to chyba nie może chodzić o przejściowe dołki a pewne cechy, reakcje itd...

Na 100% nad pewnymi rzeczami można popracować ale niestety tu nie wiemy nad czym.

A ogólnie to fanką gofrów nie jestem

Po polsku / Targowisko - Bazar - Handel [36]

No chyba że tak.
Wydaje się, że odwołanie mogłoby być jedyna opcją.


Nie jeśli by się nie zorientował . Ale fakt, że mało prawdopodobne.


To bardzo sezonowa sprawa. Teraz jesień/ zima to ogrzewany sok ok ale gofry raczej nie

Po polsku / Targowisko - Bazar - Handel [36]


No to tak. Orzeczenie. Ale chyba na tym się kończy. To orzeczenie chyba powinno chociaż nakierowac?

Nie wiem, czy podaja takie informacje.

Jeden przypadek jaki znam odrzucenia kandydata do Strazy Pożarnej to była niedojrzałość emocjonalna.

News / Good news: Poland's PiS to rule at least 12 years -- Morawiecki [86]

Young girls generally don't like old pricks talking about their periods etc.
And by 25 most normal people would cringe at it.

Which takes us again to the fact their supporters grow up.

News / Good news: Poland's PiS to rule at least 12 years -- Morawiecki [86]

One- young people are notorious for not voting
Two- they grow up

Especially as long as Korwin-Mikke is there saying thing like that the age of consent should be the age of first period etc

News / Good news: Poland's PiS to rule at least 12 years -- Morawiecki [86]

12% dla Konfy...? Wątpię żeby to sie spełniło

Sorry.

12% for Konfederacja? I doubt it will come true

Language / Cultural disparities shown through Polish and English languages [188]


Dictionary would be enough

Language / Cultural disparities shown through Polish and English languages [188]

Hard to believe really. One- the word bathroom is much better known to any person learning English. Two- access to dictionaries

Czech Republic wanted 5 mln

No, your reasoning is.

Why would they have to wait for next election? Why didn't they d it already?

USA, Canada / Poles Living in the Chicago Area [312]

Neither. I mean small brewery not the mass cr*p. Those I could easily get in UK

I see. You mean micro-breweries such as the original Sam Adams here in the States before it starting becoming mass produced. Just curious.

I don't know Sam Adam's. The brewery is growing but I's not something you'll find in a supermarket outside of the region.

In my town, thankfully, you can get it in almost any shop

USA, Canada / Poles Living in the Chicago Area [312]


Oh I can't wait for my next trip back home to have a beer from my local brewery:)

USA, Canada / Poles Living in the Chicago Area [312]


Highly doubt it :)

More or less equal with meat.


I'm from Silesia so basically grew up on those. The meat is ok but the gravy my mum did was to die for... I'm not too bad at it either.


Corn on pizza is a must!!!


Never heard it.

And slonina is not the same as boczek. Even on the pic you see how fatty it is

USA, Canada / Poles Living in the Chicago Area [312]


I like them without the sauce. Oh, I miss my mom's cooking (gołąbki) are one of those dishes that I just can't make as good as she did

USA, Canada / Poles Living in the Chicago Area [312]


I know people eat like that but I will never understand how anything can be eaten with gołąbki .

Food / Best Polish vegetarian food and other general queries [21]

In some restarurants you may still come across old term for vegetarian- jarskie.

Be careful though as I've seen scrambled eggs wilt bacon listed as that.

News / The ruling party in Poland tries to take American owned TV news station off the air [528]


For what it's worth they issued statement it was wrong.

Did Frasyniuk have the right to say that? Yes. Was it stupid and disgusting? Yes. Was the host stupid for not reacting? Yes. That doesn't mean though that it's a basis for a fight against TVN

Somehow I didn't see the same outrage from you when that producer was fired for not blacking out rainbow flag of a singer? Someone actually lost their job there.


I never understood how people can get offended just like that?
