Love / Why are Polish women so sexy ? [390]

PennBoy:
And my info says western European middle ages women spend theirs on black boys in Jamaica

Middle ages women? I know I said 'mature', but there's no need to go OTT :D

My info is that many elderly and late middle aged Polish women spend their kids inheritance (the comparative few that have some dosh) on young men in Tunisia. It seems the North Africans like Polki mature - and then some! Fact, not fiction!

News / Poland is important in the global economy crisis? [33]

I repeat, Poland was offered the Marshall Plan by the West, but the ruling commie scum in Poland refused. Obviously the usual red idea of keeping the workers very poor and very busy. The Polish people didn't have any say in the matter!! How difficult is that to understand? So I am complaining we didn't get it thank you very much.

- "belayed" indeed!

News / A devestating verdict on the Polish church [279]

@Olaf:
I was being cynical when I mentioned hell. I accept your point of view; it's all carrot and stick.
PS - After checking, I discovered there's someone else called Bimber (I'm bimber94).

Torq:
I believe that the fullness of truth and God's revelation is present only in the Holy Roman Catholic Church.

Nothing personal, Torq, but that does sound arrogant. Do you seriously think non-Catholics (7-10ths of the world's population) are destined to feed the flames of hell? This is 2010 not 1510.

Polonia / MOVING MY STUFF TO MOSCOW and a Harley motorcycle ...any ideas? [58]

dtaylor5632:
How dare you sir!

Yes, damn and blast the blaggard! :D

Seriously WR, I fear for your safety in Russia. I know of an ex-militia man from Białoruś and his son, both of whom went together to work in construction in Moscow. The son was found dead, and his dad disappeared from the face of the earth. If that can happen to a comparative local - an ex-cop at that - what are your chances of long-term survival?

News / WHY IS POLAND STILL GIVEN THE COLD SHOULDER? [197]

The worst ones, in my personal experience, are those who go to church, confession and communion, and beat their breasts with an open mea maxima culpa! I saw this when attending a funeral, and one very 'devout' bloke who made such a show, later ripped me off something bad. IMHO, what Poland could do with is an influx of several million foreign Buddhists with trade skills. Why Buddhists? The vast majority of them are aware of the consequences of 'cause and effect'. What goes around comes around.

Polonia / Polish people in New Delhi [86]

Ahh, Indian toilets! Fond memories. :D
Seriously, I once had a serious Indian girlfriend. Her toilet was a laugh!! The door was a swing-to off the ground, exactly like in cowboy saloon bars. You couldn't see the face of the person, just a shytting ar$e.

News / A devestating verdict on the Polish church [279]

Here's my last word on this thread, quoting Mahatma Gandhi:
"I like your Christ. I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ".
and
"Those who say that religion has nothing to do with politics do not know what religion is".
G'night all.

Trevek:
I wonder what he'd have done to the Israelites if it HAD fallen... mega zapping all round I guess

With ray guns maybe. And those two 'angels' in Lot's house? It's much more logical to see it in the light of von Daniken's works.

Travel / Why does everyone seem to hate LOT Polish Airlines? [380]

Trevek:
As for LOT, haven't flown them since they stopped being cheaper half of BA.

Ahhh, that probably explains why BA stopped trying to destroy LOT, as they successfully destroyed (Sir Freddie) Laker airways, and unsuccessfully tried to destroy Virgin.

Law / I am married to a Polish citizen. How can I get residency? [36]

All this seems to me that the Polish authorities are getting their own back. Sorry to say this Geoff, but in a way I'm glad to hear it! It's politics; nothing personal. Today I sometimes travel between Poland and UK, and much more frequently during the 1990s, by coach. Every single time I entered the UK via Dover, the Poles were treated at that border post like total crap. One example out of many I personally witnessed: a Polish woman doctor who provided documentary proof that she prepaid for a course to learn English language in UK, and had prepaid accommodation arranged by that language school (I craned my neck to see the documents, and I noted 'Churchill House School of English'), she was grilled by the receptionist (the so-called immigration 'officer') who asked "why do you need to learn English when you are already a doctor in Poland?" A typical unanswerable question. On that 'basis' she was deported. Yes I'm angry at that even now. Your country did that to us for sssooo long, and when we do the same to you, you don't like it. On a personal level it isn't justified for you; understandable. It's how it is. If it was up to me I'd be happy to let you in, if on the basis of what you said above is correct.

UK, Ireland / Are there enough Polish people live in Birmingham? [5]

Depends on what you mean by 'enough'. For your restaurant, you mean? In my experience, i.e. with my family, no custom there, as they are so tight their ar$e$ squeak :D . So as for Polish customers, well... good luck!! But hang on a second. If you're a Kurdish man, are you sure you're going into the right market? You are, one assumes, a Muslim, and the main Polish diet consists of pork. Talking of meat, I used to have a girlfriend of Polish parentage in Sutton Coldfield. That was in the 1970s however. But GOD was she pretty!!!

USA, Canada / CULTURE SHOCK! (of my Polish finance who visited the US) [210]

Here's a true story of culture shock. A cousin of mine came to us to UK in PRL times, in 1985, not so much to visit us but to make some $$$ of course. He came from a small village where, even today, older people genuinely believe that Jesus Christ spoke only Polish (the last person there to believe the world is flat passed away in 1995). The day after my cousin's arrival, I noticed he was in a state of semi-shock when he saw a Superdrug store (it's like Rossman in Poland) with shelves full of soap and stuff. He just couldn't believe that a shop could be so well stocked up! So guess what I did? Hee hee! I took him to Harrods! He so nearly crapped himself. Walking through the perfume department he was in genuine shock and couldn't walk another step for some minutes; gaping silently at diamond-studded perfume bottles. It was better than "Flip i Flap (that's Laurel and Hardy)", and live, too. LOL x 10.

Love / How to ask the Polish parents for her hand in Marriage? [32]

Chrys, you can have children; just don't tie the Gordian knot. So-called illegitimacy is no longer taboo, especially if you'll be living west of Poland. That's what is known in the UK as a common law 'marriage'.

You're not in love. Nobody is/was. You, me and everyone else has merely felt lust+attachment.

my beloved is so special

Sentimental twaddle! Say that in seven years' time. Sorry if I'm a grumpy bastard but I'm a grumpy bastard.
I'll now leave this thread as I've said what I can. Hope this was helpful and good luck.
PS I'm sure you know the saying 'another sucker bites the dust'. Don't do it!

Love / How to ask the Polish parents for her hand in Marriage? [32]

Chrysalis:
I'm not marrying (or financing) Mama

That's what YOU think! Famous last words. :-D

I know the type Chrys is talking about. Marry your beloved and you marry the family. IMHO there is no such thing as love (bah humbug); it's really a combination of basic lust and attachment.

Love / How to ask the Polish parents for her hand in Marriage? [32]

Don't do it Chrys. Such a knot is difficult and expensive to untie. Live in sin. Nought wrong with that. I can just imagine your situation a few months after marriage when the niceties wear off. Mama demanding dosh for anything she fancies, sister in law needs money for drink....oh Gawd! Poor you. Mama grabs one of your legs, sister in law the other leg, and shake every penny out of your pockets. DDDOOONNN'T DDOOO IITTT!!!

Language / Differences in Polish and English idioms [69]

One idiom which Poles sometimes still use makes me cringe: 'I'm as cross as two sticks'. This is infinitely older than Adam and is clearly from a veeerrryy old dictionary.

Other idioms sound completely different but mean the same thing: English - 'out of the frying pan and into the fire' - in Polish is 'out of the rain and under the gutter'.

This shows that different nations think alike but use different "mental furniture".
