Life / Why so many Poles use a second hands clothes? [110]

People become wealthy by being frugal. Second hand clothes make sense. Besides, If you would judge me by the percieved value of the clothes I'm wearing, you are exactly the kind of person I would not want to associate with. I've seen plenty of people with nice clothes and new cars who really haven't got a pot to pee in or a window to throw it out. Smart people, those Poles!

USA, Canada / How to get Drivers license in IL without social security? [96]

Perhaps a good question here would be "Why do citizens bother to subject themselves to laws that foreigners can ignore at will?" or "Why are legal citizens now 2nd class in their country of birth?" Hows bout that?

USA, Canada / Most common ancestries in the USA [56]

Were Norwegians wiped out? :O
Or are they counted as Germans?

Many Norwegians in Wisconsin. In my school you were either Norwegian or Polish.

I am American, but my ancestery is Polish, Irish, Brit, and Native. I am a collection of the best that humanity has to offer. I fear I may even be Immortal. My drinking ability is the stuff of legend.

Although I consider most of Europe to be inbred, I am willing to share my superior seed with European females under the right conditions. I would ask all ladies interested in calving a superior child to E-mail me a picture of yourself and place an initial bid (in USD) for my generous services. Its not about the money, I do this for the greater good.

News / US to deploy Patriot missiles to Poland [404]

Never really understood the need for Patriot missiles in Poland. Who are we protecting from what?? If Europe has worries against others, (It doesn't) let them build their own stuff. Americans are pretty tired of paying for others security (or occupation if you desire) and then getting nothing really in return. I would love to see our troops come home and let the other powers do as they will. It would be hillarious to see Russia rebuild the soviet union and finally gain all of western Europe this time. China take Japan, oh the revenge they would take on the Japanese! How I would love to see us off the world stage just to watch the show that ensued! I believe thats what the world wants also. Lets do this!!!

UK, Ireland / Brits to protest against foreigners in the workforce, including Poles. [289]

The British government is clearly involved in the breaking of the British as a people. All the other things (racism, etc.)are simply a means to an end. Results will tell you what the motive is. I've told you what the results are. It could be as simple as softening up the people to finally be rolled into the EU, or something more nefarious. I don't know. What I can tell you is this, The government has long stopped serving the indigenous people and makes no attempt to protect its sovereignty. They have a long range goal. What do you think it is?

Whatnext
You are a dear, intelligent person with the common sense that is rare among people today. Keep seeing the world as it is and ignore those who seek to present it to you as they wish you to see it. You are a true patriot for your nation. Don't be too harsh on the Poles, They are also tools in the hand of the powerful. Their day will come in their homeland aswell.

Of course. Would you like to elaborate on this? Please describe for me the opportunity lost to you due to the US. Please detail how you have suffered at our hands. I'm sure you are too international to have loyalty to any country, but, would you mind telling me where you are from? Are you a Gypsy?

USA, Canada / Most common ancestries in the USA [56]

Interest in Americans ancestry is seeing a huge resurgence. The "melting pot" idea has been replaced with the "salad bowl" reality. Unfortunately, politics has seen it beneficial to divide people into distinct demographics.

The English have been here so long that they have basically been diluted and not much remains except surnames. The Germans are here in great numbers, just a read through a phone book in any city will make that fairly obvious. Possibly events 70 years ago made them take the tact that being German is just something best not over-advertised for a generation or two.

As Americans we give each other a lot of crap with regard to European origin stereotypes, Its all in fun though. We even still refer to Yankees and Rebels quite often. I wish Europeans could have as much fun with this sort of thing as we do. Maybe you do.

Life / Feeling ashamed of my Polish heritage. [237]

Please don't flame me. But as of now I am not too proud of being Polish and its bothering me

Your family members before you suffered and struggled to live and to get you to the place you are now. Don't you dare dishonor them with this "poor me" bullsh*t. Those people didn't exhaust themselves so you could live your life staring at your shoes. I'm glad most of my ancestors originated from Poland. They were tough, kind, and hard working people whom I have great respect for and vicariously love Poland because it produced them. You are lucky to have Polish ancestry.

That is all.

Life / Feeling ashamed of my Polish heritage. [237]

Oh give me a break. What have you done that honors them so much Timbo?

The same things they did.

The current generation would be an embarrassment to the WWII era Poles.

Whos fault is that? Why don't you show them that in a kind way. You know, be productive in some fashion.

Also...they didn't do what they did so YOU could do anything. They did it to survive.

You must be young or have no children. Get back to me on this in a few years.

They are not different than anyone else who survived horrors...the nationality doesn't matter.

I'm not a one-worlder, so this although factually true is just stupid to me. Empathy is fine but you seem to want to minimize everyones story. Why?

Why do you let your egos rule you so much? The more someone talks about how PROUD they are to be some nationality the more useless they are to that society as a rule.

Nowhere in my post is proud or pride. Whos rule? yours? Why are you such a wet blanket? You appear to me to be either mentally ill or just a mis-educated fool. You sound like cancer to me. Get some chemo before you spread.

Just asking you to clarify your argument. What are you afraid of?

But I did notice your last comment...people who encourage others to commit suicide are a special kind of disgusting.

What are you talking about? I don't see it. You should seek some counseling for your depression/self-loathing/painful rectal itch.

Editing your post then spewing another lame insult? There really is nothing new on the internet is there?

You should re-read your own posts. spewing. Pffft.

This is just the kind of talk that shames Poles and gives bad vibes.

Sounds like you need some " anger management ".

This is the best therapy for me. de-constructing a fool.

Life / COMBATING "POLACK" JOKES [460]

"I guess I won't tell that joke after all. I'd have to explain it three times."

That joke is funny every time!

Ethnic jokes are funny usually because there is some truth to them. I'm not sure when It became criminal to realize and discuss similarities among groups of people, but this censorship needs to die. Quickly. I have engaged people of all sorts in this kind of thing and it has always been a great time. Its a chance to observe your group from the outside.

If you have some Yank jokes I'd be glad to hear them. Unlike some groups, we can handle it.

Being offended doesn't take any intelligence. Besides, the joke only hurts if its true.

Life / COMBATING "POLACK" JOKES [460]

What do you call a person who speaks 2 languages? Bilingual

Huh, I'm above par then. I speak American, Spanish (North American) and love.(cunnilingual)

That's not true. As Hitler said, if you repeat something over and over and over and over and over again, especially something ABSURD, a LIE, it gives the apperance of BEING TRUE.

I've read Mein Kampf from Mein Kumpfy chair. Nothing unusual or original about leaders trying to influence populations. Pharaohs and Caesars understood this. Al Gore does too. :)

Rat jokes have not really been in vogue during my lifetime here. Anyways, most jews that I know are pretty self-effacing anyways. If I hear one of these rat jokes it will probably be from a jew.

White folk aren't the majority where I live. I probably forgot more about Black people than your professors ever knew. I've told more black jokes and heard more redneck jokes than you could possibly believe. East Asian jokes too.

Let me guess, You think everyone is stupid and can't find a way to get along in the world without your help and ideals right? You are just the kind of person who is needed to take charge of things and straighten out this whole mess right? Good luck Mr/Ms. Stalin.

Go bend the ear of some hipsters in the coffee shop because grown-ups know exactly how things work already.

I just do that as proof that these jokes have nothing to do with ethnicity, since they can so easily be transferred from one to another. Most important is a good punch line.

Correct, they are in fact Immigrant jokes here in the US. Poles, Irish, Italian, Cuban, Mexican... Just fill in the blanks.

Trying to attach Polish jokes to Nazis and then saying that American media promoted it is just silly. Especially since most visual media has had a disproportionate number of jews in it forever. Unless you mean to say that jews took swipes at Poles after the war via American media. Is that what you are insinuating?

You seem to be bigoted against white males only. Why is that?

Life / I'm from Polish descent. CAN YOU GUYS EXPLAIN THE EU TO ME? [115]

Its the United States of Europe. Shhhhh! just don't tell the Europeans, They either haven't figured it out yet, or they think we haven't. :)

Four things a nation make:
1. Borders
2. Language
3. Culture
4. Currency

1. Borders = Gone
2. Language = English (2nd universal)
3. Culture = Secular Socialism
4. Currency = Euro

Keep this under your hat. :/ We don't want to frighten anyone.

They were making Polish jokes on the radio here today in Chicago.

MW,
Nazis were Darwinian Socialists too. Does Darwin and Socialism get a free pass yet Polish jokes dont?

I actually respect the passion you appear to have with this issue. I think you would have better results with a more finely tuned approach. Shouting Nazi or racist or something like that has lost its effectiveness for the most part.

respectfully.
