News / GERMANS WANT TO GERMANIZE KOPERNIK (COPERNICUS)! OUTRAGE! [1016]

I think there are two sets of values here.

One is place of birth.

Two is family lineage.

For those who find place of birth to be the most important...he would be Polish.

For those who find lineage (ancestry) most important, he would be German.

Us poor Ammies.....that just leaves us with lineage!

PF is going through another "full moon phase".
People are behaving a little oddly, and tempers are short.

Patti has just made Southern hall monitor for sexual innuendo in PF.

Something like this could only happen during a full moon :)

Somebody get Sobottka a new straight jacket please. He keeps wriggling loose of the old one.

:)

(mini stab at an Omni) hehe

Rule 3 of being a man states "If all else fails, open the manual"

hehe...that sounds like me.

my god I hate reading manuals...."just play around a bit and see what happens", that's MY motto :)

Love / Polish Women Versus Your Local Women ? [289]

i don't know what's wrong with American guys,

The biggest, most important flaw to watch out for is SELFISHNESS.
The "black hole" kind that knows no bounds....

If you can find an American male who is free of this disease, you are already way ahead of the rest. Everything else pales compared to this.

Love / Polish Women Versus Your Local Women ? [289]

But the threads here aren't solely about boobs.
And they tend to be on the disparaging side, especially toward English girls. Who's writing this stuff?

Wanna hear about all the faults typical of American men (no I didn't think so). I bet I could get a really long thread going on that one!

although Shopgirl posted some links stating that Germans are one of the worst lovers in the world, followed by almost all other nations.

Huh? Nope, that was "Georgian" a male poster! And why would he know? hehe

I'm a Berliner (and that is no sausage at all) but I fear nobody would take me seriously when I would name myself after that:

Ahh! But BB you are just as sweet, if not sweeter than a Berliner! Yummy! *smiles adoringly at Bratski*

Very good, miranda.

It would frighten the life out of me, if I had to write the Omnibus Edition.

That was good!
Pan Pie, it seems you've got a new member for the editorial staff! :)

Wroclaw, it would frighten any of us to have to write the Omnibus.....it would require slogging through posts we would rather not read! ;)

History / POLAND: EASTERN or CENTRAL European country? [1080]

Polson?

Did you get you question answered, or should we go for another 300 posts to get it sorted out? :)

I would say central europe....hey right now Poland is on Central European Time, if this is wrong, then the whole country should should move to another time zone! hehe ;)

I call the movers and set up an appointment.

Sure you count, Donkey! You are one of the nice ones! :) And amusing, too!

Hi LIR! I saw you had slipped back in....thought you would fool us without the intials in caps, huh? You always had a devious side, hehe! I hope you are doing well! (Actually, everytime I pop a Zomig for a migraine, I do wonder how you are in an empathetic type of way!) lol

England isn't flooding this summer I take it? I had visions of Daisy rowing to work last year! Where is that kitten, btw? :)

Off-Topic / PF - The Omnibus Edition [1502]

A hearty welcome to you all from the front line of the War on Reason. As I speak, the situation here on PF goes from bad to worse. There are insults flying, vitriolic personal attacks are on the increase and the casualty rate is climbing. It is hard to see from this fox hole just who is fighting who anymore.

This was amusing to me....coz it does seem that PF has gotten more.....hostile (is that the right word?) over the past year. Or maybe it is just my nostaglia for the "class of spring/summer 2007" group that seemed more like a family. ??????

These days I mostly read a bit here and there and then slip away quietly to recover! hehe

History / Sarmatism in Poland [119]

SVASTIKA and many other ancient symbols belong to Slavic heritage.

Just so you know....it also appears in Native American culture in the US. This is an ancient symbol......older than we can imagine. :)

News / Polish Immigrants Leave America for Europe [210]

Sure...

To give you the back story

Thanks for that. I wish others had the same wealth of experience that you do. :)

I have a standing bet with my fiancee that if it takes less than 10 minutes for someone new to start in on me about how bad the US education system is she has to cook dinner.

I had to chuckle at that...even though it shouldn't be funny! But I know what you meant....

I understand if people are leaving the US for cultural reasons (parts of the US would drive me nuts enough to leave)

And its a BIG country....lots of parts, like lots of little countries rolled into one land mass!

If people want to make the world a better place they need to get out there and repair and redirect it

Absolutely! :)

Good post....thanks for the input.
