If you're talking about nationalistic Poles in particular then of course they wouldn't - nationalists in any country usually aren't exactly the most objective and non-hypocritical people ever to exist lol :))) 🤦

Life / Poland is horrible and I have to live here - somebody call a whambulance! [95]


What do you mean by "we"?

UK, Ireland / Polish YouTuber weirdos trash-talking the UK [200]


*say


I can repeat that for your amusement :)))

I'm serious though. My mother's Japanese colleague from work brought us some traditional Japanese sweets straight from Japan. As you can imagine - I was excited :) So, it was yokan in a traditional, tasteful packaging with every piece of yokan wrapped separately in elegant piece of paper. It looked expensive. When I heard we are getting Japanese sweets I was expecting something like that WarSore's chocolate egg - European type of sweets. But it was nothing like it and it was awful. We also got something that looked similar to pierogi with anko filling - and, again, for me it was awful. I wouldn't call it "sweets" at all. The only thing I liked was a sort of crab cookie/cracker - sweet on one side and salty on another.

But I'm guessing lots of Japanese like this yokan, etc. stuff or it would die out *shrugs*

It was the biggest forum about Poland in the past and had many more active members than now :)


And what is your proof for that? :)


And you're wrong again :) There are all kinds of Poles living in Poland and abroad, not only nationalistic ones :))) Poles are often very critical about Poland.


You can sat the same thing about the British - including yourself :)))

UK, Ireland / Polish YouTuber weirdos trash-talking the UK [200]


Sorry, but that's in no way exclusive to Poles. The British living in Poland have been doing it for years on this forum and not only about Polish food, but also everything and anything Polish. So, cry me a river, snowflake...

Also, of course, not all Brits are like this and not all Poles are like this either. So calm down lol

UK, Ireland / Polish YouTuber weirdos trash-talking the UK [200]


Fine by me :)


I'd like to try that since it's a traditional dish and I actually heard of it :)


I actually quite like young boiled potatoes with dill and sour cream. I associate them with spring or early summer. My mother would pull our ear lobes every year when we would try first młode ziemniaczki :)

I don't like the mush potatoes-like thing though (unless it's with a gravy). So boring and dry ;P


Well, I've eaten roast meats and roast potatoes and I would choose Polish kotlet schabowy in a heartbeat. I love that thing when done well, sorry :)))

Life / Poland is horrible and I have to live here - somebody call a whambulance! [95]

@jon357, that's not very tolerant of you - different doesn't mean worse :)))

Poles, Germans, Scandinavians, etc. aren't "miserable" - they are simply nations of introverts.

UK, Ireland / Polish YouTuber weirdos trash-talking the UK [200]


No, it isn't. I mean, it's nothing new or unheard of. Although people usually wouldn't bother to make just such roast potatoes as the main dish or something, I guess.

If we would bother to bake potatoes then it would be more likely to be zapiekanka ziemniaczana (potato casserole). My family have two versions - with eggs and without eggs. The one without eggs done by my father is to die for - very tasty and aromatic *drools again* 🤤


I'm sure some Polish foods would go down well among Brits too if done properly :) I've never tasted any British food, but I'm not some kind of "food chauvinist" and I'm sure you have some good stuff too. I'm generally curious about different cuisines.

Life / Poland is horrible and I have to live here - somebody call a whambulance! [95]


You sound like you're new to Poland :) We're not sad, it's just natural "resting face" for Poles. And that's apparently typical not only for Eastern Europe, but also for Central Europe:

spiegel.de/international/zeitgeist/redundant-advice-don-t-smile-too-much-german-shop-assistants-warned-a-553186.html

And Scandinavian countries too, apparently. 🤔


Like what? ;D

It's interesting how different people even from the same country (like the US) can have so different opinions about Poland and Poles :)


Please go back to your country as soon as possible:)))

UK, Ireland / Polish YouTuber weirdos trash-talking the UK [200]

@jon357, for me both British and American sites are "foreign" ;D

Either way I've eaten both "baked potatoes" and "roast potatoes" - it's not some kind of "revelation" to Poles :)


Eh? 🤨

Food / Do you call it kiszka or kaszanka? [61]

@Alien, I personally like kaszanka the best when fried - like this :):

UK, Ireland / Polish YouTuber weirdos trash-talking the UK [200]

@jon357, I've googled to find out what's the difference in English between those two and apparently "baked potatos" are when you bake them whole and "roast potatos" are when you cut them in pieces and bake them. In Polish both would be "pieczone ziemniaki".


They aren't "mine" - I literally gave you a link in English *shrugs*


Well, they don't taste exactly the same if you bake them in the oven and you do it in the summer during holiday with your whole family in the countryside :))) The main attraction though was always homemade Polish sausage with mustard of course *drools* 🤤

UK, Ireland / Polish YouTuber weirdos trash-talking the UK [200]

@jon357, I've googled it and that's what I've found, among others:

happyfoodstube.com/ash-roasted-potatoes/

"Ash-roasted potatoes can be cooked in the ashes of a campfire or charcoal grill."

UK, Ireland / Polish YouTuber weirdos trash-talking the UK [200]


Of course not lol


You can say the same about British food :)))


I've been eating ash roasted potatos (from a campfire in the countryside) since I was a kid and I've eaten them roasted in an oven, but nothing beats Polish potato "pancakes" for me o_O


Dude, I absolutely love herring in oil with onion (it has to be fresh though, or it gets disgusting) and I couldn't care less if any foreigners like it or not! ;D

I find sushi vomit-inducing though, so go figure...

I also love the veggie salad with mayo - it's childhood food that we've been all accustomed to, like you've been accustomed to your lamb or whatever :)

Our food is not for foreigners to love. Get over yourself lol

In my previous post I meant that his writing style can be funny at times from what I've noticed :) For example here:

https://polishforums.com/life/poland-around-horrible-smell-sweat-26785/7/#msg2034151

I laughed out loud at that "ripe yeti soaked in spirytus" lol 😂

And as a Tolkien fan I appreciate the Uruk-hai reference :)


I've never heard about it being that bad. Apparently you can get more interest from a doctor at the hospital if you went for a private visit first and he was the one who sent you to the hospital (that's something I've also observed from my own experience when I had a surgery, I guess). My PRL-raised mother even told me to bribe that surgeon, but I'd rather die than do such a thing lol

Life / Poland is horrible and I have to live here - somebody call a whambulance! [95]


Judging by the limited number of his posts that I've read - I wouldn't say so. He picks one negative thing about Poland and blows it out of proportion.


Well, someone like you and jon357 - for sure :)))


Funny you should say that, because it looks to me like WarSore caught that disease, it's just, unlike Novichok, he can be quite funny :)

Off-Topic / What is a woman? [445]

@Bobko, wow, new girlfriend and "fiancé" already? Who is it this time - Chechen freedom fighter with Georgian roots? ;D (sorry, I couldn't help myself lol)


Speaking of the devil...


I actually cry internally. 😭


I've offered good counterarguments to your lies many, many times, so cut the bullsh1t.


Ewwww, yes, I know this type all too well... 🤮


So you weren't joking and it wasn't a "comedy" on your part after all?

Off-Topic / What is a woman? [445]

@Bobko, you mentioned johnny_reb and Strzelec35, but conveniently omitted Novichok who's the biggest offender in terms of hatred towards women on this forum :)))


Men write and say such ridiculous things about women (even on this forum) that it is insulting indeed not only to women, but also to human intellect. So you can't really blame me *shrugs* Again - how am I supposed to know what your views are if you don't share them?


?
You see, again - I don't know if you're joking here or not.


I am a very Polish woman - self-sacrifice runs in my blood, I guess lol 🤔 And I don't respond to every misogynistic joke or comment. I've ignored a lot of stuff on this forum. Lenka generally posts less than me. As for Atch - she has her own way of dealing with misogyny on this forum and definitely doesn't ignore it all completely. And roz pretty much doesn't write here anymore.


OMG, this is actually so funny... :D Because it reminds me of today's men saying to women that "your husband would give his life for you" (like Christ did for the humankind)... But of course they very rarely have an opportunity to do that, almost never. They have all the opportunity in the world to share the burdens of everyday life with their wives though - taking care of kids, the household, their wife, but they don't seem to be willing to "serve" their family in this way (let alone their wife). I guess it's too boring and tiresome and not "glorious" enough for them. 🤔 Men are meant for "more important things", you see. Like Christ. The saviour of humankind. So Paul compared a husband to Christ and the wife to the Church - made up of flawed humans who are supposed to blindly follow Christ and submit to him in everything. Wow. I'm not sure if you realise how megalomaniac this is.

Off-Topic / What is a woman? [445]


The conservative Catholic Torq was joking too? By quoting the New Testament? You think he disagrees with those quotes he posted?


How am I supposed to know whether you say such things in earnest or not? You for example - you've been making such comments before, so it makes me wonder if it's some kind of expression of your prejudice towards women.

You guys never defend women on this forum, you usually never take part in discussions about women and their rights, so how am I supposed to know your views?


Because I have to deal with those sh*tters on this forum on regular basis? There isn't much more to focus on PF, I'm afraid.


Where?

Off-Topic / What is a woman? [445]


"Comedy"? Which one of you was joking then?


You think they would let Mary study at the university in Kraków in the 15th century? Or would she be considered too stupid for that as a woman? 🙄🤦


He didn't write that anywhere. What he did literally write though was that "wives should submit in everything to their husbands" just as "the church submits to Christ". So what he was basically saying was that wives should treat their husbands like gods. This amounts to blasphemy, imho. No human should have such power over another human being. You can only submit in everything to God.


Btw, these kind of comments (sexual and attacking me as a woman) I'm somehow mainly getting from the conservative, right-wing, supporting traditional Christian family values type of men on this forum. The epitome of right-wing morals and values, eh...


No, men have legs, hands and brains (allegedly lol), so you can get it yourself, preferably in this mug :D:

Off-Topic / What is a woman? [445]

@Torq, no, men repeatedly make sure on this forum that I don't feel like "one of you". Stuff like this isn't funny for women, trust me. Because crap like this is too real for too many of us around the world. It's depressing and sickening what men often think, say about women and how they treat them while justifying it with that kind of crap that you quoted from Paul. 🤮

Off-Topic / What is a woman? [445]

@Torq, Bobko, AntV, you men make it so easy for women to hate you... So don't act all surprised when they actually do hate you.


No, this is a letter written by a Jewish guy long time ago.


It's not name-calling, it's the truth.


Where in the Gospels does Jesus say that?


LOL

No, again, this is a letter written by Paul (allegedly, because the authorship has been disputed as usual).

@jon357, you don't take it well when someone's calling you out on your bullsh1t, huh? :D Sorry, but you're getting what you deserve. Don't write bullsh1t and you won't have a problem with me. The same goes for anyone on this forum regardless of their political views or nationality. I don't discriminate :D

News / The Iran war and Poland [826]

@jon357, stop being an a$$hole. I'm not "ranting" and you yourself took part in this discussion. I'd like to also remind you that if it wasn't for your bullsh1t comment comparing women wearing hijab in Iran to women wearing coats in Europe we wouldn't be even having this conversation.

News / The Iran war and Poland [826]


You mean those documentaries and YouTube stuff that don't fit your agenda :)))

Jon357, really? Seriously? Is it really so hard for you to believe or comprehend that once women living in a fundamentalist religious authoritarian regime with laws that force them to wear certain type of clothing leave that country they choose to wear whatever they want? Unbelievable!!! Incomprehensible!!! :D Why would any woman want to do such a thing?? 🙄

News / The Iran war and Poland [826]


Some years ago I've seen a documentary in which some guy was travelling by trains in different parts of the world and talking to ordinary people. I remember that when he was on a train going from Iran to some other country most women who were on that train took off their hijabs and headscarves once the train left Iran.
So it looks like nothing changed in this respect.

This is a young Iranian guy who lives in Poland and he invited his mom to visit our country. She took off her hijab in public for the first time in her life. She also wore a summer dress in public (with no pants) for the first time too. It was the first time in her life she felt wind in her hair and between her legs. She said she's happy! They both look happy :):

News / The Iran war and Poland [826]


Where?


Good for her, but I have no idea how she went about with her everyday life then while doing all that "free bleeding".


As I wrote already - completely impractical.


Nope.

News / The Iran war and Poland [826]


Ah, so you prefer if women in those cultures don't have their way? But it's OK if men have their way? That's your "logic"?


Tell that to this woman, a$$hole:

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malala_Yousafzai


Ah, yes, the famous joke about Stalin comes to mind: "A mógł zabić!" lol 🤦


I don't know - maybe you're enjoying it when women suffer or when they're uncomfortable and hot? Or when they're forced to do what they don't want to do? I honestly don't know what's wrong with you and why you're defending that law in Iran.

News / The Iran war and Poland [826]


Eh, as a man you probably don't get it...
Would you like your pee or excrements to be running down your legs for something like 4 to 7 days a month? Because that would be the equivalent of "free bleeding" for men. For those who don't know - menstrual blood is not just blood, btw:

"It's a combination of blood, uterine tissue, cervical mucus, and vaginal secretions."

And anyway - it would be completely impractical - women wouldn't be able to sit anywhere, because they would stain everything with menstrual blood. What a ridiculous idea lol


And... that makes it so much better, according to you, or what?
