History / Lwów, Wilno ... kresy - Poland have lost enormoust part of our heritage... [389]


We could do that.We could make a deal with Russia.They take the east we take the west.Sounds fair to me.


Poles did it once in 1921 and I am sure we can take it back now ,we just need to grow some balls.They again opress Poles living there so maybe it is the time to give them another ultimatum like in 1938?

Debili w Polsce niestety nie brakuje.Dlatego (między innymi) nie przepadam za ojczyzną.Nie wiem co Ci brachu doradzić.Ja bym z punktu powiedział żeby się odpierdolił(do chamstwa musisz po chamsku bo inaczej nie rozumieją).A ja też mieszkałem w POZ, nawet jeszcze mam mieszkanie na Grunwaldzie.Chodziłeś może do "Starego Kina"?Mój dobry kumpel "Baca" stał tam za barem.Pozdro.

Polonia / What About The Poles In The Netherlands? [102]


Now it's all clear to me.Those working for slave wages are not Poles.You guys bash the wrong people.They are Australians pretending to be Poles.Now seriously ,I highly doubt what she says is true.It's hard for me to imagine anybody from Australia or even "poor" Poland would be working for Euro 3.21/h.I personally know 2 guys working in NL and one makes euro14/h (driver,delivers some cookies to the stores ,5 years on the job),the other one makes euro12/h (cutting grass on some high end golf course, he says Clarence Seedorf plays there,3 years on the job).Both wages are before taxes and accomodation.Neither is employed thru work agency (they already did their time for agencies and now are employed directly).Still, working thru agencies they claim they were making euros7-8/h (before tax and accomodation).Both speak ok English and some Dutch.


Neither do I.

Genealogy / Polish nationality? Which of the following (if any) determine being Polish. [231]


How does a Pole look like?Elaborate please.
What is the way a Pole thinks?Do you reallly think 38 milions Poles look and think the same way?Now that's silly (to don't say dumb).


To much national pride is simply cheesy.


The fight was fixed.And even if it wasn't the only person who can be proud is Pudzian.I am so sick of Poles saying for example "WE beat the Turks at Vienna".WTF?None of them have been there at that time nor took a part in the battle.Besides how can someone be proud to be Polish,Dutch,American or whatever else?What kind of accomplishment it is?They must have nothing else to be proud of so tho they stick to this silly national pride like flies to a piece of crap.

I am not a Yank.I am being constantly told by Americans that now I am an American.I don't object since they just try to be nice but I am a gd Pole and always will be.


Who?


True in the sense that they are (I am generalizing now)just too proud only of being born in the US but same goes for other nations too.

USA, Canada / Poles and Americans, what do you think, are we friends or enemies? [187]


Then where have you been in 1939 when England and France declared war on Germany?You should know that US was supplying both sides of conflict up to 1941.I know that in 1939 US army was a joke with no tanks and air force was flying biplanes but your powerfull navy could help a lot.


No,they died for US not for France or England.And you still made a killing since everything delivered to Great Britain and Soviet Union was paid for in gold.Couple years ago the Britsh made last payment for supplies delivered during WW2.


Yea right.GERMANY DECLARED WAR ON THE US not US on Germany.If they didn't do it you would be still on the sideline since there was no public support in the US to enter the war.

Besides after finishing in Europe,Germans 3 times stronger and with technologies you had no clue about (e.g jet and rocket engines)would attack US anyway.So don't tell me you did England and France any favor.

Europeans, you need to remember that in American schools they don't teach them history,they teach them how America saved the world.Therefore any discussion regarding WW2 with 90% of Americans is pointless since they don't know the facts but propaganda.

USA, Canada / Poles and Americans, what do you think, are we friends or enemies? [187]


Please don't bring up this issue.This is simply embarassing.It is 2010 not 80ies or even 90ies.I was hoping that only dumb "Polish politicians" think that visa waiver is somehow important to Poles.I really don't who in his right mind would come to US and stay ilegally having opition to work and live in the EU.


I guess some Poles do feel this way.I don't.But the truth is that Poland or some Poles did you guys few favors.To name a few:

Pułaski saved Washington and created US cavalry.
General Kościuszko helped you fight Brits.
Colonel Kukliński gave you war plans of Warsaw Pact.(Btw this mofo was a fuking traitor).
Polish intelligence agents rescued CIA agents in Iraq in 1990 before "Desert Storm".
Poland supported you in Iraq in 2003(at the great cost).Very few countries did.
Poland supports you in Afganistan (cost Polish people $1 bilion/year)
Poland bought F 16 ($6.5bilion just for the planes).Where is the the offset?
Poland allowed you to set up missile defence base (this s h i t is to defend US not Poland).
Still I don't think you guys owe us anything but if that was up to me Poland would cut all ties with US since Poland only gets f uked in this "friendly" relation.

USA, Canada / Poles and Americans, what do you think, are we friends or enemies? [187]


Some Americans watch MTV ,some don't,some like hip hip and some don't,I can assure you there are drugs in Poland too, "politicians in Poland are way more crooked than here,there are crimminals in every country and fat people are everywhere, here maybe 25% at the most,there are also legall aliens here.As much as I have mixed feelings about US I strongly disagree with painting all Americans with the same brush.It is simply not fair and ignorant.And true SOME Americans look down at Poles and try to put us down but on the other hand there is plenty of them who welcome us here with open arms.Just got back from Rite Aid and older women at the register hearing my accent asked where am I from.I said "I am from Poland",she said "Poland? God bless you."Also I will never forget young very nice women telling me that she is very sorry and apologizes if any American ever gave me hard time here because I am a foraigner.And I am not making up this stories.There is many great people here and painting all Americans with the same brush and bashing the whole nation because of few low life scumbags is just not right.

We have more freedom in the US than you have anywhere in the EU but no state would ever let you drive RHD car.

That's good.More freedom than I have though.Can you register RHD cars in these states?

I enjoyed riding around with my father in his 85 Ford Granada.It was in 1987 and there were only 5 western cars in my town at that time.And now?Everyone has western car.Szkoda gadać.Za komuny było lepiej.

History / What was better in Poland under communism? [67]

Get a life people.PRLwas NOT a communist country!Some people have had private bussineses and you could exchange złoty for USD or DM or bony PKO on the black market then go to Pewex or Baltona and buy whatever you needed to.I remember half a liter of Wyborowa was $1.50 in Pewex.My first computer (Atari 800 xl) was bought in pewex for $110 in 1986.You could buy western cars in Pol-Mot for "dewizy".And you could travel (if you had "dewizy"),sell stuff abroad, bring stuff to Poland and make money.There were 2 kinds of passports,1 valid only for socialist countries and the other for the rest of the world.I would NEVER leave Poland if it was still PRL. edit you were buying a "diesel" car and you never had problem with fuel.All you needed to do was to stop any trucker any he hooked you up with fuel.

History / What was better in Poland under communism? [67]

My parents also had private business and never had any idea to run away from PRL even though they traveled to western countries and could easily stay there.Ofc in 50ies it was not that sweet and you were oppressed if you wanted to be on your own,but it has changed in 70ies.You could run your own bussines but could hire no more than 15 workers.Calling PRL communist is kinda ignorant considering definition of communism.Only westerners call it communist but they have no clue what PRL was about.And hey, we did have western movies on public "communist" TV.

Good post but pointless since he will never get it.The level of propaganda in the US is simply unbeliveble.Many of them live in mobile homes and hoop around in 20 years old junk yet still belive they live "American dream" and are way better off than anybody living outside US.

Interesting read Convex.Still if that was up to me PAF would be flying Grippens.And hey,we need to add CIA "black site" in Kiejkuty to the list of favors regardless of what corrupted crooks (Kwaśniewski,Miller etc)say.

Life / How to Politely Refuse a Drink in Poland [72]

There seems to be a lot of confusion among the foraigners how to politely refuse a drink in Poland.I feel you guys since I myself hate vodka ( and I am a Pole) and can't do more than 2-3 shots without risking terrible conseqenses the next day(the only alcohol I can drink in large quatities without risking dying the next day is tequila).I went thru this many times and I can tell how to act at the Polish party. So here is how you do it.When first asked you say "Dziękuję nie piję".This will buy you some time though not much since they will not belive you just don't drink vodka.Soon you will be asked again to have a shot.Of course you still want to be polite so just repeat "Dziękuje nie pije".There will be a some nagging since everyone is a bit drunk already but in general soon you will be left alone.Not for long though.Few shots later someone will realize that your glass is empty and will become annoying trying to make you drinking.Remember that unlike you they indeed were drinking all that time so just say "Nie,nie naprawde nie pije".You will have to repeat it couple times since everyone is well drunk now but you should be fine.As the drinking continues and everyone become more or less trashed there will be someone pointing out the fact that you are the only one who is not drinking and will become very annoying trying to change it.Now,this time you DON'T say "Dziękuje nie pije" nor "Nie,nie pije" instead you say "NIE PIJE KURWA I CHUJ,ODPIERDOL SIE CZLOWIEKU." It works,good luck!
