Life / Gyms in Warsaw [44]

Quite expensive (500 PLN/month) but very nice and proffesional place.

Lol, I pay 70 PLN/month... but in one of middle sized cities in Poland ;) Average gym cost in Warsaw should be somewhere around 150 PLN/m-c...

Life / Is it me or do any guys in Poland not have shaved heads? [113]

I can't speak for the rest of the country of course but there were a lot of skinheads in Krakow compared to, say, Plymouth.

lol and why do you think they were all skinheads? Many polish guys have short hair or have no hair ..... just because they like that 'style'.

Work / Salary expectations in Poland [373]

Me - student* - IT - full time job - Poland (big city) - 3k net (which is considered as low salary in my field).

Guy with degree, say 2-3 yrs experience in my field can make 6k net

Specialist 3-5+ yrs of experience in field, talented - 10k net.

and that's it... no more than 10-12k in my field :-) but I think I will start my own business.... I can't imagine me working full time for next ~40yrs :D

*but I was working before and have experience which most of students don't have

Language / Is math in Polish different than in English? [59]

math is international... hell... intergalactic universal language! :D

Polish way to write this is similar... and some people would write it exactly the same as you did it.

Ok, examples:

3 * 2 = 6 (but this asterisk should be a point vertically in the middle of the digit)

6 : 3 = 2

Language / Word order and swearing in Polish [44]

But there must be a difference if they are different sentences

the difference is more or less exactly the same as here:

fuck, what are you doing?
what the fuck are you doing?
what are you doing, fuck?

Language / Word order and swearing in Polish [44]

this sentence in the middle is the strongest one i think (and the most grammatically correct) :

co ty kurwa robisz - what the fuck are you doing

the other two are also sometimes heard, but they may come from a guy who use kurwa (or fuck) in every other sentence... like.... fuck, i was at home and found nothing in the fridge, so i went to this fucking shop, met my fucking neighbor, fuck he is weirdo, and bought some food... :D

well...buy maybe some other people would be able to explain it better :D What is the most important these sentences means almost the same thing...

Life / Bollywood in Poland [32]

Though Shah Rukh Khan is the craze among Polish youth

rotfl... never heard about her/him :D This is some bullsh*

btw. i think that Bollywood isn't popular in Poland at all. Most of us (young Poles) grown on American movies.

Life / Gyms in Warsaw [44]

not, err maybe yes... I'm not sure what about this one in Ursynow but generally they have many gyms and most are for both males and females... as far as i know they have some only for females but on the other hand there is no one for males only :D

Life / Gyms in Warsaw [44]

is this possible?

it's possible on most of the gyms in Warsaw... i would be suprised if they wouldn't allow for that. On the other hand it often costs a lot! It's like a 30-40zl for training.

Love / Are all Polish men Psychos? [111]

ok, ok..... just consider also this scenario:

there are still some people out there who don't like to share their problems with everybody else... don't like to talk about their problems and prefer to resolve them by themselves.
