Internet says they are. I'm not in Warsaw so I can't say. There are phone numbers and addresses so you are free to check.

UK, Ireland / What can I say/do about my Polish neighbours in the UK? [65]


Learn to read before you post.
I said 'to the same standard'. I don't know about you but I don't sh*t on the floor or molest kids.

If someone commits a crime they should be arrested and go to court. If the court decides that way they should be deported but being a noisy neighbour' hardly applies.

What a stupid notion. Immigrants as well as natives are only humans.They should be held to the same standards as everybody else.

Good guys! Strzelić byka- to make a mistake. It is used mostly about orthography mistake

Language / Game - guess Polish idioms/sayings in direct English translation [1756]


Yes :)

As to the proper idiom different translation is
to shoot a bull

And no, it has nothing to do with scoring ;)

Language / Game - guess Polish idioms/sayings in direct English translation [1756]


No. That would be to hit sb from a bull (walnąć kogos z byka)

Maybe there is a better translation but I don't want to make it too easy just yet.

Now something that really could be used here tonight. It's not really in the letter of this thread but definitely in the spirit. As you guys know I'm from Silesia and while I don't know Silesian too well I know few things and here is one

wyciepać na hasiok

I am a women and it was the most sensitive advice I can give you.

It seems both your friends and your girlfriend have some prejudices to work on.
While you can ignore your friends if you choose so I would have a serious conversation with your girlfriend.as you both have to respect each other believes and be prepared on how to raise the kids. In the successful Muslim-Christian relationship I know the Muslim attended all family occasions celebrated in church and in their bedroom they have symbols of both religions standing side by side.

I of course forgot that you should spice them up with salt and pepper :)
Bope you will like the as they are nit to everyone's taste.

Food / What do non-Poles think about eating the following Polish foods? [1450]

Easy to make. My proportion:
6 grated, hard boiled eggs, one small, chopped fried onion, one raw egg and bread crumbs enough to be able to form them. Then roll them in bread crumbs on the outside and fry. Voila

Usually served with dill or mushroom gravy/souce

Food / What do non-Poles think about eating the following Polish foods? [1450]

Exactly! There was quite a lot of such vegetarian versions but when the market opened and meat was freely available they became unpopular

100 grams


No filling just boiled eggs with bread crumbs, fried onion salt, pepper and raw egg

Kaszotto

Slightly dry one garlic clove, add one chopped leek (just white and light green part) sprinkle with a bit of black pepper, cover and let the leek soften a bit. Open and move to the side and add chicken (about 250,300 g cut into small pieces and spiced with salt, pepper and a tsp of oregano. Let it dry until chicken is cooked, add the buckwheat (recipie calls for bormal one but I used roasted as I love the taste) mix everything and fry for about a minute. Pour in 2/3 cup of water mixed with 3 tbsp of soy souce . Cover and let the buckwheat cook for about 5,10 minutes. Stir in chopped Chinese leave (as much as you can get out of one :) ). Cover and cook for few minutes then open and let the liquid reduce. Add some spinach if you like. Done.

Recipie for krupnik a bit later.

Here is one of the standard 'lack of meat' PRL dishes

Life / I think once Amazon arrives it will make Allegro totally irrelevant and bankrupt within a year [28]


Sounds great but I'm traditionalist- I like paper and still use library. I even made sure all the kids in my family are signed up at around 3 :)

Life / I think once Amazon arrives it will make Allegro totally irrelevant and bankrupt within a year [28]

Well, for these books to be good the authors have to have special outlook on life and natural warmth. If you want to practice your Polish read Jezycjada (especially the first books)

Life / I think once Amazon arrives it will make Allegro totally irrelevant and bankrupt within a year [28]

Yes, that's why I needed exactly that edition as I knew the translation and loved it.

I do like good 'teenagers' literature. When I get tired or have bad time they make me smile.

Life / I think once Amazon arrives it will make Allegro totally irrelevant and bankrupt within a year [28]

I use ebay more often than Amazon tbh but always buy now and new. In my experience thay have much bigger range of products.

I loved Allegro for so many scarce products. It was the only place on the internet where I could buy one specific edition of Anne of Green Gables .

I used both and I miss allegro.

Love / Incels in Poland [299]


That was always there...That doesn't stop these girls marry someone else after.


Again, these women are available for marriage.


This is the first time I actually feel like fu*k it'. I'm supposed to feel bad for these guys and blame the feminism because they 'have problems dealing with rejection'. Well, tough sh*t! We all have problems. Some people have families some don't, some have 8 kids even if they don't want them others can't have any...It's not an excuse for the hate and destruction.

Btw, if at let's say 30 at the point of becoming an incel they have problems with women how are their chances looking after becoming one?

Love / Incels in Poland [299]

At Maf- since there is no polygamy in Western world and generally there is more women than man- women face the same fate. Yet they don't create a community based on hating man and resolving to aggression.

Noone jumps on them for their romantic lives problems but for how they deal with it
