Life / I saw Polish nationalism today [263]
How could the victim be wicked if he fought against the inhumane apartheid??? You are old enough to remember that most countries of the world had imposed sanctions on the R of SA for its state sponsored racial discrimination, which was one of the main reasons why the white gov collapsed there.
Like cursed soldiers. Now I know why so many Poles/Polesses reject those thugs. They had blood on their hands. :):):)
We can say so about anybody. Even you. Does it mean you should be eliminated in a non natural way and the perpetrators will be called heroes ???? ):):)
Righteous punishment of the wicked.

Exactly!!! I heard it in Budka Suflera`s hit Never believe a Woman. :):):)
No, I don`t think it is a derivative of stronger words. I think gingerbread was the most popular cake in old Poland. When it got stale aka dry, it produced negative associations which later passed onto grumpy silly people of age.

Life / Polish grandma`s advice on life and food [30]
Broth, mostly chicken soup in Poland, needs veg to be aromatic. Luckily, they are easily available: carrots, parsley root, celery, leek and onion.
The second trick for the perfect broth is to add an ingredient which people often forget about which is a leaf of Italian cabbage.
This ingredient not only enriches the soup's flavor with nutty and horseradish notes, but also absorbs excess fat, which is especially important for people who care about a lighter diet.
There is one more thing to those veg. Experts on taste recommend roasting them before adding to the soup. In result, the broth gets richer and stronger aroma and flavour.
Roasting also gives the broth a more intense color, which is a hallmark of a well-prepared broth. Unfortunately, many people try to cut corners by adding raw vegetables and meat, which makes the soup taste much flatter.

Of course not. When you found yourself in the wrong place at the wrong time, you could be beaten up by drunk hooligans. I still remember how my mates or other people warned me not to visit certain notorious places where assaults were frequent.
Of course. The homeless were removed from streets by the regime police using force on those resisting. That is why you never saw them.
Not exactly. They checked the attendance and those absent ones had to submit official explanation why they didn`t come.
They are not horrors but fairy tales for good kids. Hey, we are not going to bed yet! :):):)

In a matching exercise with food and container words, a few of my students, in different classes, wrongly matched a bag of cereal instead of a box of cereal. In most cases cereal in Poland is available in packages not boxes.

Yes, old guy. But why gingerbread and not poppy seed cake???
As for the other two, sorry no.
Hint - linen press is meant not as a machine but as a place where it is exploited. The word is used on situations where verbal communication among people is abundant.
No - it is real embers which a person might offer to another on request. What for? Hint - mostly done in the street.
How about sitting on your phone/computer??

The fact that the communist system here was milder at certain times than in other countries doesn`t mean it didn`t exist. Polish communists tried to make it as communisty as elsewhere but the nation`s resistance prevented it.

Donald Duck chewing gum was very popular in Poland back then because the package contained a mini cartoon story and everybody wanted to collect them coz normal comic books with Disney characters were never published in communist Poland and their availability depended on private import.
So did the import of Donald gum. The state companies didn`t import them and it was Polish tourists who brought them to Poland. They were bought in the West and in result were sold at astronomical prices here - 5 communist zlotys per piece. I remember it like today that at the time a ride on a city bus/tram cost 1 zloty. So did a daily newspaper or a phone call no matter how long.
My sister and me collected those cartoons and we had a few dozen each. Unfortunately, we left home early during various disturbances and we didn`t take our collections with us. My sister still regrets her lost collection cos our mum packed it up in several boxes and took to the countryside for poor village kids.
