Travel / Poland from a Persian Tourist's Perspective [269]

I once knew a Paki who studied in Germany for a couple of years. I told him I was Polish and he did not know where Poland was on the map. How's that for ignorance? Stupid Paki I say :)

You mean Pakistani right?As for him not knowing where Poland is ,this is actually good thing.I hope nobody in Pakistan and few other countries knows where PL is or that it even exists.

USA, Canada / Do you speak English? Have you lived in America? New LOVE/HATE list......... [144]

Like:
Variety of stuff and its all fricking CHEAP
Cheap gas
Decent infrastructure
Spirit and attitude of most (friendliness)
Opportunities
Differences.North is differerent than South and West is different than East
George W Bush (may not like his foreign policy but he is a cool dude)
Diversity of cultures

Love:
Women.Forget Polish women,American women are the biggest sluts in the world.And in my eyes its a BIG +.If American women wants you ,you don't have do anything,she will come to you and it won't take long for you to score.Again BIG +.

Dislike:
Attitude of some ("we are the greatest nation"(that implies other nations are not equel to them),"everyone wants to live here" and so on).

Bill O'Reilly and Fox News

Hate:
American fascists ("we can do whatever and whereever coz we are Americans,and we are always right")
Lou Dobbs

Don't know if my opinion counts,coz I have no idea what level my English is.Learned it here myself (without any schools) ,just by living among Americans for 6 years,reading a lot and watching movies.

USA, Canada / Getting a VISA to USA by a Polish person nowadays [339]

So many Poles stay illegally in the US

And ofc you know how many?Show me statistics ,or stop talking b******t It is 2010 not eighties.

I live in Poland as well and have had nothing but grief trying to deal with immigration

Then GTFO, nobody needs you there or stop b*******g Love it or leave it sucker.

that EU will make it a requirement for all US citizens to have visas to any european country

Not US citizens but US diplomats.Check the facts before posting.
To those who want to come to US for vacation:you going to spend money there and you let them hummiliate you?There are many nice places around the world where we don't need visas.

To those who want to come here to do menial jobs:think again coz you are better off working in EU ,belive it or not.

I prsonally have never had any bad experience crossing US border ,it was either nice chat with immigration officer or just "how you doing sir?"One extreme situation took place when I came here for the first time long time ago with "work and travell ".My bro got drunk and we had little fight on the plane.After landing we were both arrested at the airport.I was so upset that I told the immigration officer that I am going back with the next plane coz I don't want to be around this azzhole(my bro).The officer (black dude) looked at me and said "America is a big country ,you can go here or you can go there.U don't have to be around him".We were both released.Maybe not exactly on a topic but from my experience the worst b*****s working for USCIS are 3rd world immigrants not born Americans,I learned that during my PRC interview but thats different story.

USA, Canada / Getting a VISA to USA by a Polish person nowadays [339]

Is it an expensive place to life? Whats the night life like? I am not too far from the sea here, so I am immune to the smells of the sea.

Spent there only one day so I don't really know how expensive housing is.Hard to say since sale ,state and property taxes differ from state to state and county.wWouldn't expect "fireworks" when It comes to nightlife.

Life / Are Polish ppl capable of revolting? [41]

I the light of latest events in Kyrgystan where Kyrgyz ppl decided to topple their goverment, do you think Polish ppl are capable of taking similar action?Maybe instead of leaving the country by milions, they should stand up and oust their own regime.Aren't they tired enough of this "democracy" yet?Or maybe they are to busy trying to make the ends meet?I hope they will wake up some time soon and this time get it right(unlike 21 years ago).I am ready to come back and fight as soon as the revolt begin.So what do you guys think ,are Polish ppl capable of taking their country back from small group of crooks and traitors or they just pusssies?Anybody?

Life / Are Polish ppl capable of revolting? [41]

No, you are not.

Yes I am

Civil war is just not a part of our tradition.

We did have few civil wars ,the latest in 1935.

Poland paradoxiaclly had no communist guerillas in WW2 fighting against nationalist guerillas

You are wrong,e.g NSZ vs AL and vice versa,AL vs AK. I think only BCH was neutral and fought Germans only.

Life / Are Polish ppl capable of revolting? [41]

Yea, Poland needs a dictator.

True it needs someone concerned about the country and its ppl (I think ppl make country not piece of land) not his pockets or party.

where is that? in the west?

With the standard of living in the "west" ppl may not care but PL is a diferent story

Too many people in Poland "put up and shut up". Its another legacy of that fcuking communist heritage.

True

poland isnt as bad as ireland, uk

And milions left PL coz they had it too good there?

WTF is this guy about, thats economic stability, nothing to do with corruption, lack of decent health care, infrastructure issues, red tape, poverty etc....

You got it right

the government seems to be composed solely of thiefs and morons, but that is kind of expected. I cannot even imagint it otherwise

I can ,this country has potential but not with morons and leeches dragging you down whanever you try to acomplish something.Why do we have to leave our country and become despised immigrants?Get rid of bureaucracy(they dont contribute anything) lower taxes to bare minimum and capital will be flowing there faster than we can count it.

Poles are tired

Indeed.Most of them.But seems not enough yet.

Life / Are Polish ppl capable of revolting? [41]

you have to figure out what you want to revolt against, and how you will make it better. I'm all ears.

I am revolting against corruption and unjustice,against crooked election system,bureaucracy and high taxes.
1 Change election system,vote for particular ppl not parties,cut the number of representatives in Sejm by half ,together with their salaries.
2 Cut the bureaucracy by at least half since they don't contribute anything but are only burden for those who acctually work,harsh penalties for corrupted gov workers.

3 Lower taxes to bare minimum,make them worth to be paid in PL,not worth to avoid them.
4 Crimminals do heavy labor not chill in comfortable prisons.
5 Stop spending on colonial wars and invest in infrastructure,healthcare and science.
6 Get rid of konkordat ,let belivers finance church if they want to.
7 Legalize drugs and tax it.Don't waste money chasing pot smokers.Stop treating grown ppl like little kids.
I have to say I am libertarian and everyone should be allowed to do whatever as long as it doesn't harm anybody.

We, Polish expats should form government "na uchodztwie" like the one in London after 1939-) I don't see any way to change anything in Poland with the current election system.How you going to make it to Sejm without getting involved with the clique?The only one who managed to do so was Lepper and it wasn't without some violence.I am not a fan of Lepper but I admire the fact that he actually made it there.

UK, Ireland / Polish immigrants in the UK - victims or criminals?! [236]

Why not instead of whinning how bad they treat you abroad, give them same treatment in PL?.I am heading for PL soon and I promise to give "westerners" the same treatment they give you, if I only come across any of them.And I don't give a flying phuck how big or whatever they are since they are on my territory.I say "westerners" coz I dont have a problem with ppl from other parts of the globe, including Amis (99 out of 100 welcome me here in US), they don't have this "I am better" attitude.Probably some good ppl (judging from this forum there is a few among them) will get hurt in the process ,well to bad.And Susila if I was you I would find another bf coz your current one seems to be one of the "superior"scumbags.So brytole,irole,wiatraki ,greek herders and the rest of you "western" europeans see you soon ,we will talk some more in person.

Love / Are Polish Women cold and aloof? [249]

When talking to Americans I very often have to speak slowly and carefully because otherwise they simply can't understand what I am saying

This is bcoz you speak with your English akcent Bev.It's sometimes really hard to understand you Brits but I guess it all depends where did you learn English and what you are used to.

Travel / Starbucks in Poland? [149]

Anyway, Polish people aren't the best coffee makers either ,if I remember correctly.....

And I am sure you don't who introduced coffee to the "western" world and opened the first coffee house in Vienna(Europe?).The guy name was Jerzy Franciszek Kulczycki and it took place in 1683 after victory over Turks at the gates of Vienna where king Sobieski's army plundered Turkish camp and took a lot of booty including coffee beans.Another of his innovations was to serve coffee with milk, a manner that was unknown to the Turks.

I am also a coffee junkie but I think Starbucks is way overpriced.

but also of important note is the first Burger King is coming too...

They are coming back.Burger King was already in PL in the early 90ies .I remember they paid a bilion (pre 95) złotych to B.Linda for commercials.

UK, Ireland / Polish immigrants in the UK - victims or criminals?! [236]

That's it. Fight fire with fire ,and no, I am not being sarcastic. If Brits treat Poles as bad as they say, then Poles ought to do the same.

I wish it was that easy!But its not .There are idiots and azzholes everywhere .I think every nation has a fair share of them and it's simply unfair to hate the whole nation only coz someone gave you hard time.I have been there and I know what I am talking about.And as much as I am sick of "Polish ppl this or Polish ppl that" I also realize that giving Brits in Poland same treatment as some of my countryman recive in UK would hurt some innocent ppl.I think that if you decide to live abroad ,you have to take into account that from time to time you will meet someone who will be "sending" you home or giving you hard time just bcoz you are foraigner,just try to avoid them.I was angry writing my previous post but giving bad treatment to all Brits living in Poland regardless,wouldn't be fair coz there are some Wildrovers or SeanBMs among them.

i have never had an issue because someone found out i am polish, never.

I find it hard to belive.

yes but mostly legal ones and it is possible to immigrate to usa lagally.. most of the people here got here legally, ok?

Being myself an immigrant or expat I would not (and I don't) talk about immigration issues in US.Many of those who are unlawfully present here would never get any kinds of visa and I am sure you are well aware of this.
