Ziemowit, powaznie? Wlasnie wrocilam z Europy i ta cala regulacja danych osobowych jest strasznie wkurzajaca. Tak czy inaczej trzeba kliknac "Zgadzam sie" zeby wejsc na wiekszosc stron. Czy sa jakies pozytywne strony tej ustawy?

A tak w ogóle to wydaje mi się, że ciągle szukasz dla siebie jakiegoś księcia (z bajki?).

A przeciez jest tylu ksiecow, wystarczy tylko sobie ktoregos sobie wybrac. Np w "Chlopakach do wziecia" jest duzo ksieci do wyrwania ;)
Sorry, ale jesli kobieta ma szacunek do siebie to raczej nie szuka ksiecia tylko partnera, a z tym nie jest latwo.

Wredotka, ale ci sie toipc rozkrecil. Przepadlam na olimpiadzie, zagladam dzis a tu tyle sie dzieje.

Najpierw pojawiła się, a potem umocniła na nim frakcja nacjonalistycznych trolli polskich

Myslalam ze sie wszyscy tego typu kilka lat temu przeniesli do Torqa na forum. Wtedy jak byla ta wielka schizma i ludzie sie podzielili tematycznie, to oba fora zrobily sie potwornie nudne.

Travel / Polski Bus experiences in Poland? [17]

[Moved from]: Does Polski Bus make stops on the way to Warsaw, or is it a direct route to the capital?

If you take Polski Bus from A to Warsaw, will it stop somewhere before the final destination in Warsaw if you ask them, or it only stops once at the the final destination?

Ditto. Is Delph banned or did he become a mod?
Sorry for my bluntness, I don't feel like ready doing the research on the forum. I'm some year and a half behind on current events in this place.

Shaming? Again, I only used your "logical" course. Doesn't work anymore? Exactly what I expected. And my argument is as real as yours. Bye.

Life / Professional feminists' of Poland meet-up [631]

Since the beginning of civilization, all important contributions to the advancement of society have been brought fourth my men, with little relevant exception. Statistically, the difference is gargantuan. You can take the liberal route, and blame it on the oppression of women through out the ages, or simply follow the most logical course.

Following your "logical course" it appears that Polish men are far stupider than American or German men, since very few of the "important contributions to the advancement of society have been brought fourth" by Polish men.

But I'm sure you will be able to find arguments in 3 minutes disputing your global intellectual inferiority, and I'm sure it's not going to be the level of testosterone.

Love / Fresh, wholesome country lass in Poland - getting married and going back to the US [167]

my elderly father, who travels to Poland often, and is active in variety of Pol/Am organizations, shows around pictures of his lavish East Coast estate and reels in lovely Polish ladies, who dream of an escape to easy life in the USofA.

He's currently looking for his 6th Mrs. Ex, and I have no doubt he'll find her.

I'm surprised he still owns his lavish estate after 5 divorces. Did all the exes sign a prenup? Or are the pictures his but the estate belongs to somebody else? That could explain the reason for such frequent divorces.

Love / Fresh, wholesome country lass in Poland - getting married and going back to the US [167]

I agree there's a good chance a 50-year-old Polonian bachelor would quite likely attract golddiggers.

lol, golddiggers. With 50 000 a year? That's hardly enough for 2 people to get by.

Why would a young self-respecting woman be interested some looser grandfather with unrealistic expectations?

They might discover that they like different things sexually or were otherwise incompatible.

A guy who want a a woman to be virgin does not grasp the idea that women have sexual needs themselves. For him a woman is a possession acquired in order to cook for him, clean his house and take care of his dick.

News / Barbara Piasecka Johnson, Maid Who Married Multimillionaire, Dies at 76 [57]

I I "love" the story as well and am happy for her and her husband too.

I've heard from a Polish lady who used to work as her cook that she was pretty abusive towards old Johnson. She was a typical gold digger and I don't know what the fuss was all about.

History / Terrible past for the Jews in Poland? [930]

I think it's the industrialization of death that makes the Hitler regime so horrendous and it automatically disqualifes any positive narrative. I don't think anyone can deny the Jews the victims status in the WW2.

To that end I think the victim status is arguable before WWII, but I don't want to repeat what some posters already said (e.g. Gumishu).

Life / Don't Forget: Tomorrow, March 8 is Women's Day in Poland! [115]

And after all these years on the forum I still get so angry about the lies he spits out here. I should put him on ignore. Or he should move to "Toy Soldier" or something like that. He would be so much happier in a like-minded community.

Life / Don't Forget: Tomorrow, March 8 is Women's Day in Poland! [115]

It is "politically incorrect" to portray women the same way men are in advertising, it isn't even close.

Only in commercials that advertise mundane housekeeping products like washing powder, toilet cleaners, etc, women are presented as the ones who call the shots. After all they can't tell you "Hey, woman, you are stupid, now buy my crap". By the way, isn't it sad that in 2013 most cleaning products commercials are targeted at women?

If you look at car commercials it's a different story. It's quite uncommon to see a stupid man, but it's not unheard of to see a stupid woman, or a woman who is a gold digger.

I find this commercial particularly offensive even though it's quite funny.

Life / The "I am never wrong" phenom - is it the Polish thing? [63]

Anyway- is this a Polish thing? Making something that is your fault -somebody elses fault.

Funnily, I get the "I am never wrong" vibe from many Americans and British people. The typical English modesty / humility mentioned above is actually a perverse form of pride ;-p

Yes, it's a Polish thing and Magdalena just proved it.

"Dom Zły"

It's so sticky and dirty that a shower is needed after finishing the whole experience. Not a fun movie to watch but worthwhile.

News / Wisława Szymborska died. [30]

Barańczak and Cavenagh again?

yes

Gains a lot too, in other moments.

Maybe the translation has to grow on me. I've never read the poem in English until today. The Polish feels much smoother to me.

News / Wisława Szymborska died. [30]

They are awarded subjectivly and in many cases the decisions were highly criticized...

The decisions are usually criticized by the one who were hoping to get it, but didn't :)

There is usually more critics though if a woman gets the award, than when a man gets it. And the good old parity discussion kicks in, for example that Szymborska got the award because she was a woman, and her being from Eastern Europe was a plus, Toni Morrison, because is a woman and black, etc...

Here is my favorite poem. I find it looses a lot in the English translation.

Cebula
Co innego cebula.
Ona nie ma wnętrzności.
Jest sobą na wskroś cebula,
do stopnia cebuliczności.
Cebulasta na zewnątrz,
cebulowa do rdzenia,
mogłaby wejrzeć w siebie
cebula bez przerażenia.

Po polsku / Od Nowego Roku w radiu będzie więcej polskojęzycznych piosenek; Kompleks niższości? [39]

Mówi się, że najbardziej kreatywnym okresem życia jest młodość.

To tylko jest prawda w przypadku ludzi, ktorzy przez wiele lat wykonuja jakas oglupiajaca prace. Jesli ktos zajmuje sie czyms, co go nieustannie rozwija, swoje najwieksze osiagniecia bedzie mial w srednim wieku. Mlodzi ludzie sa kreatywni, ale brak im glebi i samokrytyki.

A tak swoja droga, to moze to wynika z tego, ze jestem leciwa niewiasta, ale za komuny i przy wielkiej cenzurze muzyka i teksty byly swietne, i nawet nie mysle o zbuntowanych rockmenach, ale a przyklad o takich piosenkach Ewy Bem, czy tez pierwszych piosenkach Kayah (chociaz ona wciaz ma dobre teksty). A teraz jak juz nam wszystko wolno, to teksty zeszly na psy. Moze cenzura by nam pomogla?

Albo moze Polcay powinni desygnowac Marcina Swietlickiego narodowym pisaczem tekstow?

Life / Poland - abandon all logic [25]

I like the way that at Warsaw station there are tramps who can beg in five languages but none of the ticket Sellers speak anything other than Polish.

Going with the flow requires certain amount of stupidity. For the ones with "Weltschmerz" life can be only bearable on the outskirts of the society.

Love / Unmarried couples in Poland = pathology [310]

Putting an external pressure on that relationship, some sort of artificial bind or contract to trap two people together is both unfeasible and unfair. It may have been "morally noble" in the dark ages when women were denied all the other basic human rights and had to look to their man for support, but not any more.

The contract is not to bind the people together these days. It's to ensure that the laws will protect them / apply to them when they split and start dividing the assets.
