All of those jokes are interchangeable for different groups in different countries and territories. Irish jokes in Australia, Newfoundlanders (”Newfies”) in Canada, Cajuns (”Coonasses”) in Louisiana, etc. How they ever got applied to the nation that produced Copernicus, Chopin, and John Paul II may be a mystery, but the jokes are universal.
Horses. The Poles are stallions. So much respect for them.
Look up "Witold Pilecki"
Very nice people. Krakow in particular is a gem, and Auschwitz is a place everyone should see so it’s never forgotten. But their cuisine makes British food seem spicy. Don’t forget to pack some Tabasco or Sriracha sauce.
Don't forget the Wieliczka Salt Mine. And a lot of people rag on Warsaw, heck even the Poles do, but I enjoyed it, especially walking down Krakowskie Przedmiescie to the Old Town. And Warsaw is absolutely booming.
De Georgio: Harry hates everybody. Limeys, Micks, Hebes, Fat Dagos, N*****s, Honkies, Chinks, you name it.
Gonzales: How does he feel about Mexicans?
De Georgio: Ask him.
Harry Callahan: Especially Spics.
Today, those lines would lead to Watts riots.
I would love to go to Zakopane.
Torun, birthplace of Copernicus, our tour was supposed to go there, but they changed on us.

Well, living in Chicago where we get the most Polish immigrants I think I can speculate. I don’t think we tend to get the cream of their society over here, at least not in the majority. Basically, a lot of them are what other Poles would basically call “hillbillies”, and when they come over here they are not sophisticated at all and the results can be hilarious.
Every Polish person I’ve met has been a good one. One I almost married (but let’s not open that wound). Defend Poland Yes, Rest of Europe Nyet.
“..Poland is the biggest former communist country ...”
Ironic, isn’t it.... the democrats are trying to turn US into the LATEST communist country.
There was a funny British show called “Harry and Paul” that featured skits, one of which was about a Polish Cafe in London, the actresses obviously aren’t Polish, but it was kind of cute in showing how Poles are.
“He was very old, he was 47!”

It’s been their goal since the 50s.
All the deaths in the prior 50 years didn’t mean anything to them.
God bless Poland!
Move the Tac Fighter Wing from the UK to Poland they are willing to pay for it and the 48ths been to Poland once or twice before in 1966....we were welcomed with open arms and parties of celebration.....Move the Army of the rhine from there to either Czech Nation or Hungary...both countries have walls all ready to keep the crazies out...
