Travel / What is the ugliest city or town in Poland? [89]

Czestochowa apart from Jasna Gora is pretty ugly.

WaƂbrzych are pretty depressing too

Walbrzych is not bad,it has lot of potential,just severely neglected over the years.

WROCLAW - definitely, anyone with half a brain knows that it's Wroclaw, Poland's embarrassment of a city

Wroclaw is considered to be one of the nicest cities in Poland,strange choice:/
My choice would be either Bytom or Zabrze,as much as it pains me to say it all Upper Silesia is mostly grim and depressing.

Food / Your favourite Polish foods! [180]

What a joke....British food bland! a nation that invented the Curry, great lamb and wonderful beef...this from a Pole! a nation of boiled everything and centuries old pesant food!!!!!

]Can't take any criticism in regards to UK,yet he slams Poland any chance he gets.That's right English food is awful,just like English women are the fattest and ugliest in Europe,it's a fact.See taste your own medicine!

The best Polish food variety of soups and cakes,the least favourite golonka,disgusting.

News / Don't go to Poland ... because you could end up coming back in a coffin [313]

The Austria and Yugoslavia thing is weird. Did they actually say there there were land borders between them and Poland & Ukraine or did they use another phrase?

Lol,it made them look foolish.Check the map at 2:28.

Yeah "kibole" are disgraceful even I'd be affraid to go and watch the match between the local teams;)

News / Don't go to Poland ... because you could end up coming back in a coffin [313]

so behind the back then, avoiding issues like hooliganism and pretending there's no issue. Just as long as it looks ok to outsiders, that is.

I didn't say there is no issue,because there is,I just find timing strange,plus why didn't they show any international matches just local teams,no interview with Polish or British police,and while you're at it some smart guys you have at BBC,I didn't know Poland borders with Austria and Yugoslavia still exists.Seeing this kind of mistakes how can I take this documentary seriously?

Don't get me wrong,I hate "kiboli"and their retarted mentality,I just think for my taste the documentary was unprofessional and biased.

Strange that you should admit it here, but good luck to you in your endeavours, anyway.

LOL,you wish.I don't even live in the UK, I want nothing from your country,it just shows that Brits are not better than Polish,they just don't do it in your face.

News / Don't go to Poland ... because you could end up coming back in a coffin [313]

The problem is that she hasn't addressed it. Just given a press conference after the problem was highlighted by the media.

What do you want her to do, like she said,fans who support local teams are different breed from those who support national team.British fans can stay home for all I care.

I'm not saying Poland doesn't have a problem with hooliganism or racism but saying "don't go to Poland because you could end up coming back in coffin" is way exaggerated.

Besides timing of this documentary is suspicious.

UK, Ireland / Sooo many Polski Sklep in the UK, LOL [64]

What happened? Did some Polish girl tell you to **** off or something? lol

I'm affraid you're right,his rants are bizzare,either he's really disturbed person or he got dumped by Polish girlfriend.

It's called "things which remind you of home". It's natural. Moving abroad isn't easy, unless you're an "expat" with all the corporate benefits. Most English people won't move 100 miles for work, never mind 1000, so stop moaning about people who are actually willing to do something with their lives, other than troll online.

That's exactly what it is.Some older people might prefer Polish stores because they can't speak and read English.Mostly time I shop there if I feel like eating Polish sweets or cold cuts,sometimes juices or Polish "obiady". I prefer American supermarkets for grocery shopping and Italian for specility food products.

Life / A recent visit to Poland. First time after 12 years. [19]

and the changes that did take place were not all positive.

I don't know about Upper Silesia I've been the only once,but the whole area looked kinda depressing:/
I visit mostly Wroclaw,and it has changed quite a bit.Beautiful airport,new football stadium,Rynek and townhouses nicely renovated,new Multimedia Fountain,Wroclaw Main Station is being renovated as of right now,lots of pubs and restaurants,even the dreaded Osiedla got a facelift.

Yeah people can be a pain,don't you know complaining is our national sport:)
The one thing I hated is people would bump or run into me and they just kept walking,no sorry,no smile,nothing.And how could I forget the annoying drunks either on the street,bus,trams,a real turn off.

Roads need improvement,I was scared to drive or be driven in Poland,but not so much because of the roads but all those crazy drivers.

You do have some valid points but I saw many positive changes,couple more years and Wroclaw will look like any Western city.

Its not hard to figure that you yourself are a pole!

Lol,good one,I got that impression too.Looks like her visit was a nightmare;)
I can not believe she didn't have any positive experience.
I go to Poland every year and sure lots of things that irritate me but overall the positive outweigh the negative.
Better luck next time.

Love / Polish women are the most beautiful in the world! [1718]

You do realise that she's half Polish?

It says her mother was born in Britain,grew up in France,but born to Polish parents,(Polish wikipedia) hence the name Jola,so I'd say she's more than 50% Polish.Pretty but never heard of her.

Love / Polish women are the most beautiful in the world! [1718]

You're so mean about British women,one of my favorite actress from "Quills" Amelia Warner is British and she is beyond beautiful.

Have you seen Rachel Weisz,Kate Beckinsale,Cheryl Cole,Elizabeth Hurley,Keira KnightleyHelena Bonham Carter, you can't tell me those English women are not attractive,I would say they're way more attractive than Polish actresses or singers.

About Polish women,sure lots of pretty ones,but I don't know what's worst horse-face overweight British girls or Polskie solary and blachary:/

Food / Polish cuisine for Euro 2012 - poll results [9]

Pork jelly should be out,foreigners find it disgusting,at least my friends.
Sekacz is an odd choice,it should be sernik or makowiec.
Agree about the zurek,it's tasty .
How come pierogi are not on a list?

She was on the front page on aol and her last name caught my attention,she's very pretty and speak Polish.

I don't agree about the British women,some of the most beautiful women come from England,plus British women have the best skin.
And like the old saying says beauty is in the eye of the beholder .

Love / Polish women and foreign men [76]

None truth to that,it's quite the opposite.Majority of my friends are married to Poles,one to Slovak and another one suprise suprise to a Jew.

Either way I think a lot of Polish parents just don't care,they want their son/daughter to be happy whomever she/he choose to be with.

You have some strange obsession with Polish women and foreigners:/

Life / Television in Poland - embarrassingly bad? [44]

You're welcome.I'm exposed to American TV,and it's not that great either,way too much reality shows,ever heard of Kardashians:)

I don't know if you into tv series but Czas Honoru is nice,I also really enjoyed Rewers,Dom Zly,Roza,Pregi,Rozyczka,Mala Moskwa.Dzien Swira it's a must,one of the best Polish comedy(dark comedy) that came out lately.

Life / Television in Poland - embarrassingly bad? [44]

TVP Kultura is pretty good.I don't like to watch Polish news,the announcers are way too serious and stiff.As for the actors,can't say I agree,have you seen any movie with Marcin Dorocinski,Michal Zebrowski,Mateusz Damiecki,Artur Zmijewski,Jan Wieczorkowski,that's from top of my head,but I know there are plenty more good male actors in PL.

Life / Why are Poles always so miserable? Why do they never smile? [512]

Same here,love the country,hate the polish mentality,it doesn't really cost that much to smile once in a while,say hello to your neighbor,not to mention some people are just plain rude.Is it so hard to say thank you while someone holds the door for you,or I'm sorry if you bump into somebody,the constant complaining and distrust get on my nervers the most.I'm not living in Poland but visit quite often and that's the main thing that bother me the most about polish society.My hubby always jokes that polish people have"stone faces",but he agrees once they get to know you they're very friendly.Could it be "post communist mentality",something in our DNA,our tragic history,who knows,I'll hope it will change for the better with the younger generation.
