Sorry to say that but you are wasting your breath here

Life / Opłatek, not presents, epitomises the true Polish Christmas spirit [85]

For a part of the religious side of society it is.
There is also the more secular one- most pubs open up at the same time and can't complain about attendance.
Both are called pasterka but one obviously in a joking manner.

And that makes it ok? So if someone steals your car after you had it for half a year and keeps it for a year it should become his?

Chemikiem- you are too good at this!

But since you called me to the blackboard:

To run away.

A bit vulgar one:

To sh*t higher than one's as*

But instead of getting to know his case and what happened there you jumped on PO straight away as if that was any argument in Banas case.

I wonder if there ever comes a time when we as a society will be able to actually judge such actions on merit and leaving behind our political preferences

I think you are mixing Pawian with Harry.
Both Pawian and I are Polish. Enough to look into threads in Polish.

He has huge potential but last time around he didn't seem to take it all seriously. Kind of like 'I'm here to show left point of view but please, oh please, don't make me go to parliament and actually be a politician:)

News / Poland Parliamentary Elections 2019 [93]

I'm actually quite surprised by the left's high result ( I don't follow polls generally).
I wonder if it's the result of polarisation of society, protest vote or genuine resurection :)

News / So rate but good deeds of Polish politicians [9]

I would like to believe it was true. After all this thread is about believing that even politicians can have human and heroic bone in their bodies

I will try and find some more examples of things like that but of course everyone is welcome to share their own examples

That's why I wanted some mayerial about it, to try to figure it out. I guess I should move my a** and find the aswers for myself if I want them :)

Study / Various education and school issues in Poland. Opinions, stories, controversies. [1006]

What the hell are you talking about? They are not available for those schools. Sending kids for some classes to a different village is not a viable option. Your comparison is similar if it was primary school overcrowding and said that there are rooms in kindergarden.

Those two systems (primary school/gimnazjum and liceum) are governed by different bodies on different levels While it was possible to play a bit more with the primary school/gimnazjum level because they are both local schools that all kids attend the liceum level is a different matter.

They are in different schools? As in sometimes even different towns? For few villages you may have one liceum. While the classrooms might be available they won't be available in the school that is overcrowded.

My friend had therapy there and I saw it then. It still needs a lot of investment.
Not my taste though a lot of the time

Life / Why Do You Love Poland? [907]

That poll would be pointless without asking what exactly should change. And since it's an organisation of 27 countries it's not only Poles whose wishes count. All those countries have to meet in the middle. Anyway- none of this matters in the matter of church in Poland

Life / Why Do You Love Poland? [907]

You and your other personalities?

There are probably Poles who share your opinion but there are also many who consider EU a positive force. And it seems the later are in majority for now. Deal with it.
