Study / Shocking! Test standards in Polish schools. [165]

This is S A D !!!!

I agree. The fact that those students would get such high marks according to the official standards just says everything about the state of education in Poland. I teach gimnazjum students and they are way better then this, however they have been studying English at the state school, as well as in a private one. I find that some Polish students lack writing skills in English, while their reading, speaking and listening skills are on the much higher level.

The marking standards just proves that the Polish education system is not concentrated on the writing skills, which is a shame.

Stu's post is correct. I would be appalled too.

USA, Canada / Can you BE Polish without SPEAKING Polish in the US? [256]

She's gonna flip.

you make sure you are out of the house, lets say having a quiet time in the Polish Deli munching on kielbasa sandwich with sour pickles;), or in a Jewish Deli having cream cheese with smoked salmon on the the finest European Sour Bread or something like that.

How would I know;).

If they eat kielbasa every week and go to Polish church they are Polish.

wait for the answers of the regular offenders on PF;). They take such topics seriously.

History / Mother tongue in Poland - acccording to 1931 census. [174]

The question is what that source is worth.

what about your source. You are not even able to interpret it correctly and the census did not include all people form the given area, but a part of population. There is even a note in wiki, that the numbers have been tempered with, so you have no point, well maybe just an excuse to call people names. You are a nutcase indeed.

History / Lithuanians hate Poles? [156]

Maybe you should go out for a bit, talk with people, see that there is world around you, not only propaganda you believe so much. Or maybe you just need a girlfriend... xDD

nah, he is just a miserable sod, who doesn't even live in Poland and the only way not to lose connection is to read the Polish press - this is where he gets his views.

Watch, he is going to call me names after this post:)

USA, Canada / Moved back from Canada to Poland:). Here are the reasons why. [868]

Sure you do.

no, I don't. I am not a mod. Polmed and southern were spamming, as they always do. They disregard anything and everything as long as they get to say what they want to say. They are not able to carry on a healthy conversation.

how would you compare people from Toronto to Polish people?

nice, trying to steer it back on topic;). No comparison. Toronto's population is over 50% multicultural. That should give you an idea. Whoever is familiar with multicultural society and the cities would understand.

I would urge the OP to steer it back to the topic as it is not going to be left here to encourage members to insult each other.

I have a limited power to do this. However, if you want to put this in a bin, give me some notice, so I can copy it to my files. Thank you:)

USA, Canada / Moved back from Canada to Poland:). Here are the reasons why. [868]

In Canada we have learned to deal with the cold- dress for it and you can still have fun. In Poland people hide from it.

there must be a skating indoor rink in wawa pip, I even found one in Szczecin yesterday. They even sharpened my skates. If it wasn't for the overbearing parents dragging their children on the ice- instead of letting them have some fun, I would be much happier. There were hot dogs, hot chocolate and coffee.

Life / Automobiles vs. Pedestrians in Poland [77]

Not that strange really: there are some Poles who always always always defend anything and everything Polish whenever a non-Pole says anything even slightly negative about the Polish thing. You know the kind I mean, the ones who say things like "Samantha Geimer was a prostitute".

I deal with such attitude on the daily basis, it is frustrating really.

USA, Canada / Moved back from Canada to Poland:). Here are the reasons why. [868]

I was simply commenting on the Polish weather. Not on the factors for moving back.
true, the Canadian winters are harsh most of the time, yet the Canadian people in general are way much nicer then Poles, or at least are polite and not invasive. You are just so provocative most of the time,annoying and full of denial. You seem to be right and everyone else is wrong. Strange and doesn't create room for healthy discussion.

Back to the Polish weather: it sucks most of the time even though it is mild in comparison to Canadian one.

USA, Canada / Moved back from Canada to Poland:). Here are the reasons why. [868]

oh nice, my first English teaching job was in Evia (poor Greek kids), have a great time.

really? How is the Island? interesting?

How will you recognise Southern?
Will he be surrounded by a herd of giggling Polki?

I will, that is all you have to know;)

PS>I am a moody poster, so if I did not reply to some, please wait until I am in a mood.

as for the undersexed Berlin tour guide- he is gonna get it.

PSS. it is Ukrainian x-mas today, so I am off. Next week there is the Ukrainian New Years Eve and the big dance, so I will be attending and reporting the outcome - hold your breath.

You hope.

I will be travelling a bit around the mainland and then spent some time in Evia, a big island I presume.

USA, Canada / Moved back from Canada to Poland:). Here are the reasons why. [868]

but I'm nice on FB :)

well, I am the other way around; a real hell to deal on FB lol

i have noticed the days are getting longer. just a few weeks ago it was dark when i closed my shop at 4 pm, now it is still light out. i really enjoy the long daylight hours in the summer- particularly on the baltic.

aha, Baltic coast is nice, but I will be spending my summer on the Greek coast this year - feta cheese i must say;).
I am hoping not to bump onto southern though;(

Po polsku / Jaki seriale polecacie dla dorosłych? [30]

Znajoma jest pracownikiem socjalnym, to się nasłuchałam. Sama chcę kupić mieszkanie w takiej na poły niepewnej dzielnicy (właśnie tam gdzie ona pracuje). No, to mam czas na przemyślenie sprawy.

dzielnica jest w porzadku i ma super lokalizacje, a takich dzielnic to troche jest w Polsce i ja bym sie tym zbytnio nie przejmowala. Nie ma zadnego zagrozenia i jakies tam zawieruchy sa bardzo nieszkodliwe. Naprawde:). Jak ktos chce mieszkac w centrum, to tak to bywa.

Madder than Mad Jack McMad, the winner of this year's Mr Madman competition.

my Polish friends and relatives admit on the daily basis that there are so many irresponsible and really bad drivers it Poland then comes Monia who claims that it is otherwise. Fekkign Twilight Zone I say;).

Whatever makes you happy Monia, but please never ever discuss, or attempt to discuss anything serious, which has anything to do with the loss of human life in the future.

I feel sorry for all those people who die in car crashes in Poland. Useless.

USA, Canada / Moved back from Canada to Poland:). Here are the reasons why. [868]

Even in Canada where the wind chill can reach -45 C it is easier to deal with because the daylight hours are longer there in the winter than in Poland. The sun will still be shining at -20 C. In Poland at around November it gets really grey and dark and dreary and the sun doesn't shine til March.

true, but the day is getting longer here:)
can't be arsed to answer to other comments about the weather in Poland. Pip knows what I am talking about:)
