Very nice!
Bought 3 random volumes of an old (and seemingly unsuccessful) encyclopedia series, at an antique shop in Cold Springs, NY.

Books that were in low circulation; books most people are unfamiliar with, etc.
Not books that are popularly considered bad.
Sorry, poor choice of words.
What qualifies as unpopular?

This is pretty damn good for a 6 year old.
Damn.
Maybe these Brits are not so stupid as we thought.

After some success in "Random", I would like to try out a thread dedicated to sharing rare or unpopular books.
My first entry is a timely one, in my opinion.

Is it happening in Poland, like in Russia, that the current kids are completely useless at cursive? I think in Russia in some places they decided not to teach them cursive at all.

This handwriting analysis business smells a bit like BS. Everyone gets super nice compliments, and nothing negative.
Probably quite a decisive and energetic person who likes to get things done

I'm sorry Paulina, I missed your analysis!
I'm always optimistic, and always in a good mood. So this is correct.
Yes, I enjoy a good drink.
I try. My parents and gf would however be very surprised to read this.
Please cut down on your quotes
Only thing which is flat out wrong. If anything, I have an overly heightened sense of self importance.

@Atch
Your "to" is absolutely atrocious. Looks like an ancient Egyptian hieroglyph for a scarab.
Based on this handwriting, I can conclude that you are:
1) A Virgo
2) Prefer to have your first meal after 11 AM
3) Struggle to complete Sudoku puzzles
4) Could benefit from some yoga

Because to write in Russian you have to write cursive. Only children and people suffering from mental retardation are allowed to use print in Russian. I'm no calligrapher, so that's why?
If I wrote cursive English it would be similarly atrocious.
I think so. Атч is better than Ач.
Why is it so?

Special delivery for Atch - Bobko's handwriting. Very curious what you can say about my orc brain based on this.
Bonus: A Russian book I recently bought, published in an unusual place, by unusual people.

History / Profound discovery - grievances towards Poland [6]
This is indeed profound. What you have developed, is nothing less than a hermetic framework for analyzing Polish history, and developing policy suggestions on the foreign relations front.
So many of the questions one has about Poland, fall to the wayside when you apply the groundbreaking framework of them being insufferable snobs.
Bravo!

What appears to you as a contradiction may in fact be a sign from the cosmos, that Germans and Russians always had Poles best interests at heart.
such unlikely combinations can only be found on PF

Time for an updated list of who's who, from Bobko:
1) Crow (always my number 1)
2) Novichok (very intelligent man. Manages to keep an open perspective on things, despite living in Communist America).
3) Gefreiter Kania (also very intelligent man, but of weak convictions).
4) Barney (an Irish man that sees through all the Anglo BS)
5) Atch (an Irish woman, hates me, hates Russia, but writes wonderfully about food and Ireland)
Special, honorary bonus person:
6) AntV (a true son of America)

Life / What to do if the neighbors is too loud? [40]
@carol121
I suggest you drill a small diameter hole down to their apartment. Through this hole, feed a small camera. Next time when you hear an argument starting, you can monitor if there is any risk of a physical confrontation. In this way you save the police valuable time that could be wasted investigating a routine couple's fight.
If you actually see things getting out of hand, on your security monitor, you could of course call the police. However, I suggest a different approach. Tear gas. When the fight gets started, remove the camera, and begin pumping tear gas through the hole you drilled earlier. Tear gas may be difficult to procure in your jurisdiction, in this case I would try to produce a home brew (use your imagination and your pantry). Once you hear coughing, reinsert camera and evaluate the situation.
If tear gas proves insufficient at defusing the domestic conflict, proceed to plan B - flooding. Turn on all faucets and block all sinks; flush several rags down the toilet; drain radiators.
A combination of tear gas and flooding will almost certainly refocus the couple's attention on your person. At this point, it is safe to call the police.

It appears that Poles are not alone in deriving enormous joy from encounters with beavers. It is common to all Slavs.

Ha! It's "age-restricted" for me too, but I am logged into my YouTube account so I just have to press "Ok". You should be able to click, "watch on YouTube", and it should work.
It's just a Polish guy yelling at a beaver.

I found one of the videos. I must admit it is highly entertaining.
It seems, on the example of this young man, that Poles feel mixed emotions towards the beaver. On the one hand, he is showered with crude insults (why!??), but in other instances he is treated in very comradely fashion.
On this chat this definitely one of the most popular forms of entertainment. If only I saw this clip before creating my username... I could have been Bobr.

A Russian meme. The captions on the left say: "Russian recreation", "American recreation", "Polish recreation" - respectively.
Is it true that Poles are obsessed with beavers?

History / 70th anniversary of 1943 Wołyń/Volhynia and Eastern Galicia Massacre - controvercies [443]
What is the difference between being historically evil and perpetually evil? Curious distinction...
Since Ukrainians did not exist until very recently (this is a fact not only from the POV of external parties, but even from within Ukraine itself), one may argue that Poland has been dealing with the same perpetually evil people, appearing in different guises.
The choice is between the historically evil Ukrainians and the perpetually evil Russian.
