Real Estate / TV Show looking for Expat Home Buyers in Poland [13]

I love this show! ( and Invader Zim ) anyhoo..there was an episode where a teacher and family moved to Poland and chose a unfinished house, when they did the update months later....not much work was done to complete it.

Study / Is Poland a good place to study for Black Africans? [90]

I thought people in Ireland had a command of writing English.....without run on sentences.

USA, Canada / Where is loyalty of Polish diaspora in America? In USA or in Poland? What is priority? [63]

I'm sure Japanese Americans had this dilemma after Pearl Harbor.

...But we threw em in camps before they could choose.

USA, Canada / Why are Polish Americans mocked in the American media? [226]

Since Pope John Paul II was the most famous Polish figure in American media for such a long time, he eradicated negative Polish stereotypes created by Archie Bunker from "All in the Family" with his, "Dumb Pollack" references almost singlehandedly.

Today American youth prolly supplant him with Marcin Gortat ( The Polish Hammer) as the most recognizable Pole.
His star keeps rising now that he's starting in Phoenix.

( Anytime the players and fans give you a nickname,you're good )

Even the former players on NBA TV ( Who criticizes everybody and everything) rave about him all the time.
They think going against Dwight Howard (who is a freak of nature) everyday in practice when he was with Orlando sped up his progress. He's one of the top 5 centers in the NBA at the moment.

This is true. Hollywood loves Russian gangsters and portraying Russian women as either spies or heartless gold diggers or both.
No one protests..so it will continue.

But..Italian Americans are up in arms about Jersey Shore. They're shooting season 3 in Italy. I don't think they will get a key to the city.

On a lighter note, the brainiac in the cartoon, Penguins of Madagascar is named Kowalski. Seems goofy but it does have a positive effect on next generation.

It's like a Train wreck, hard to pass by without staring in disbelief.

Here we go again.
If you have natural resources that we can exploit, ( oil, gold, diamond mines, cheap labor etc) then hell yea!
Why should you be exempt?

Life / As a black gay man (US) visiting Warsaw this summer, will I get beat up for nothing? [65]

Dude, you're a 6'2, 235lb ex-Football player! Black, white, or green. Who in their right mind would F with you?

Polish people are cool and mind their own business, nothing to worry about.

It's the drunk soccer hooligans on holiday, ( who always seem to travel in packs ) that you might encounter at 3am, that could be a problem...but that can happen in any city and to anyone.

Life / Girls in Poland shaving side of head!? [30]


The music is WAY worst than the hair.

Harlem is totally gentrified now. Full of lawyers and doctors.

History / Whoever is a Pole, of Polish blood and Polish origin... MUST listen this song of Racowie [57]


All animals are.
Lions will fight and kill other Lions for territory, females, and food.

Humans are part of the ape family, we're caught up in the same crap.
It's just masked under illusions.

Chimps and humans have 99% of the same DNA

I took the train from Zagreb to Ljubljana a couple of summers ago. That area is jaw dropping beautiful ( better than anything Disney could makeup). If these guys stopped squabbling, investment money would flood the place.

News / John Godson, born in Nigeria, might become Poland Sejm's first black deputy! [313]


It's called xenophobia. ( he'll deny it tho.)

Just one voice out of 7 billion.

I don't like saying "I told ya so"...in this case I'll make an exemption.

Your only hope is to move to a extremely poor country in political isolation to avoid this.

His mere presence would make it multicultural. Classic irony.

Love / Polish girls' attitude towards different kinds of sex [88]


Yup, had it offered by 2 different GF's. I declined. Not my thing.

USA, Canada / Looking for Polish beer in the United States [39]

Have you tried here? yespils.com

Zywiec drinker. Knocks me on my ass every time.

Life / Getting pretty tired of the postal service here in Poland [58]


The problem with international tracking is, one service handing off to another.
Their tracking systems are not compatible.
Companies like UPS charge more but they control the package all the way and you have 100% visibility.

USA, Canada / Travelling to Poland from the U.S. on a expired Passport [43]


She can book the flight over the Internet ( Orbitz etc..)
The problem will occur at the counter.
The airline will ALWAYS have last say on who they will allow to board.
If anything is out of order, you're rolling the dice.

Love / Simon Mol - would he have been so "successful" in other countries than Poland? [121]

Wouldn't communist avocation of an atheist state contribute to lack of morals about sex in these countries? I'm not saying you need religion to have self respect, but it does provide a foundation at an early age.

Hey! Madonna made a fortune with those hangups.

Love / Simon Mol - would he have been so "successful" in other countries than Poland? [121]

I had to Google this guy, never heard of him.
From what I gather, he was in total denial, even refusing treatment.

As for snagging so many girls, "fame" seems to be the attraction.
Nothing new there.

You're behaving like a monkey who spots another from a different tribe in the same tree. OOO ooo aahh ahhh!

It's already in motion. If you read through some of these threads, not only are they returning, but bringing their new mates with them. Americans, Irish, Brits, Islanders etc.

Eventually, all will be involved at some level.

This is where entrepreneurship comes into play. That "small %" you're referring to can have great impact.
