News / Polexit? Almost half of the Poles believe that Poland would be better off outside of the EU [548]

Give it 5 years or so and if Brexit is a huge economic success the rest of the EU will follow.

My babcia had those plastic covers on her couch and you couldn't wear shorts bc your legs would stick to it..haha


I visited a few homes in Poland where everyone takes off their shoes and they provide you slippers, not uncommon at all.

People may be insulted by not taking off your shoes. I forgot once, and they let me know quicker than a Japanese restaurant! lol

Make sure you take off your shoes before entering a Polish home.

You might get a dirty look or be scolded by Babcia if you don't:)

If you have Netflix watch Dave Chappelle sticks and stones and you'll laugh your head off.

Do you remember Breaking Bad? They came out with the final movie called "El Camino" on Netflix about the aftermath of Jesse Pinkman.

It is a very nice town, very clean and has interesting architecture.


I figured you would recognize it after seeing the cannon. It seems more like an old fancy hotel than a medieval castle.

Actually, Rzeszow is a cool fun town. There is big contrast between the old ugly commie buildings and new modern ones.

I used to smoke. Its a really nasty habit and Im glad I was able to quit, It was one of the hardest things I ever did! Having said that. The stench of cigs really bothers me now, but when ppl smoke weed it actually smells good and doesn't bother me at all:)


Society has become extremely negative towards smokers. They changed the laws so you can't smoke in a Pub and the patrons have to go outside and stand in an alley durning the middle of winter. You cant smoke at sporting events or concerts anymore, even when it is outside. The worst insulting thing Ive seen was recently at Chopin airport, where smokers were confined inside this glass looking vestibule, just standing there, puffing away with this big cloud of smoke hanging above them. If you didn't have any cigs you could just walk in there and get a fix...

What a load of rubbish your post is. Are you actually condoning ppl to start smoking?


If everyone smoked cigarettes we would have world peace? Perhaps, you're talking about weed instead of cigs?


Right, this stereotype won't help your cause...balwan!

Why even bother to pay rent in LA? You can just pitch a tent on the beach and they wont do a thing about it, but it could get a little tough at night.


Na, they got out of that place like the rest of the gringos.

From what I heard they won't restore it because it was never finished. The Swedes and Russians destroyed it even more, so now they are just protecting what is left.
