Life / Why Do You Love Poland? [907]

Poland would be nicer if people would smile more, be more honest, not so competitive, not so pushy, work harder, wouldn't think about the past all the time, not drink and smoke so much, wouldn't steal and open up a bit about their feelings instead of keeping everything to themselves and let their problems eat them up then find relief in drinking vodka. Then Poland would be nice.

Urszula, have you, by any slightest chance, noticed that the thread is about why you love Poland? There is another thread about why you hate it - why don't you go and post on there?

I love Poland for the smell of fresh bread in the morning in nearby sklep spożywczy, for strangers who give me 20 groszy, when I don't have enough money to buy a bus ticket, for old ladies&gentlemen who talk to me in the very bus, for my rental agency lady, who offered me to stay with her, the time she finds an appartment for me.

I love it for it's culture, traditions, religion, cuisine, beer, vodka, beautiful women & nature & places etc.
I love it because sometimes life here is so crazy and chaotic - I'm never bored.
I love it, 'cause Poland is what made(in Polska) me who I am!
ha!

UK, Ireland / Why are Polish people, especially women, so disrespectful toward the English? [437]

...oh and look at what other threads Miss Natalie E has been replying to...

Do you think that Polish people are rude?
Are Polish girls "gold diggers"?

I know, I've checked her profile as well. Poor girl, she must have been through a lot of problems with them horrid Polish women...

So you think tourism means going to an ancient city full of churches - a place considered sacred by Poles - and getting pissed with yer mates, mocking locals because they can't speak English, pulling your trousers down and mooning nuns, urinating up a 1000 year old church, acting like animals with zero repect for your surroundings and host culture - because you think you are better - you have the right to do this - because you are British.

That's probably why the British are now only 2nd most liked nation by Poles, as per Maaarysia's post :)

Maybe the problem is with you, Nataliee.

I think Miss Natalie E doesn't have a problem with Poles in general, but with Polish women, hence the "especially women" in the subject of her thread.

Maybe her bf/fiancé/husband has left her, escaped with a pretty Polish girl, and Miss is now taking her anger out on all the Polish ppl of the world.

With all due respect Miss English, that is pitiful, however, I truly hope that all the above negative comments have comforted you, and made you feel better.

Language / IS "MURZYN" word RACIST? [686]

You are absolutely right, Polak and Polka are Polish for male and female Polish people. In Poland it's not offensive in any way.
But I've been told that abroad the word Polak has pejorative meaning.

News / A Świnoujście girl wins the I love Europe competition [17]

Is that a glass? For drinking???

yes BB, it is a glass and yes, glasses are for drinking :)

A beer glass?

no, it's a cocktail glass.

Does that mean Europeans are drunks????

a cocktail is a delicious drink that we all/most of us like, a mix of best ingredients. She's saying that the best "ingredients of Europe" are its People, Places and Cultures. This combination of People, Places and Cultures makes Europe her favourite.

Of course, some Europeans are drunks as well.

News / A Świnoujście girl wins the I love Europe competition [17]

Maria Mileńko won the competition for a poster for Europe day 2010.
Graphically it's very simple, but I do like the message "Europe. My favourite Mix. People. Places. Cultures".
What do you think?

Poster by Maria Mileńko , student of the Academy of Fine Arts in Poznan , won the contest for a poster for Europe Day 2010 The author of the winning work will receive a prize of two thousand euro.

Polish artist's work brought together by far the most points among the works that were in the finals of the "I love Europe " . Voting ended at midnight on 31 January and was conducted via the competition website designeurope2010.eu.. Internet users could vote on the nine works by artists originating, inter alia with Portugal, Germany and France.

History / remember, forget, forgive, blame ... Holocaust Memorial Day in Poland [229]

However, you should find some different way of dealing with the almost unbearable load of the sins of your fathers than by looking for other nations to blame and point fingers at. I feel sorry for Germans - I really do (there's no malice intended at all). How hard it must be for them...

Amen. May God forgive them (no malice intended either).
