Well if the men look like bull dogs and the women look like the men then technically don't they all look like bull dogs?

I don't know but the Polish seem to have some strange stereotypes of the Irish.

Sweet jesus you have been deprived, vast majority of the polish women are far better looking and in better shape than a lot of Irish lasses! Where are you living? Pop down to your local tesco, i guarantee that every fit mot there is from Poland!

Before: Polish women are not in the EU, are hot and I have a good chance of scoring because marrying me means a visa.

Now: Polish women are in the EU, are still hot and wont touch my pasty fat Irish ass with a barge pole.

Before: Polish people are coming to Ireland to work hard in the building boom and sure why not, the economy needs them to grow.

Now: Well, it seems that a lot of the polish people were cleverly working their asses off and saving money as they went, while silly Irish people bought ridiculously over priced apartments, built by polish people, which were then rented to polish people, that where here to build apartments which were really only needed to house polish people that were here building apartments....my head hurts...

A man walks into a bar, sits down, and says to the guy next to him, "Hey, you wanna hear a great Polish joke?"
"Listen, pal," the guy replies. "I'm Poland's kick-boxing champion. My two friends here are both world-ranked judo masters, and they're Polish, too. Now, you still want to tell that joke?"
"Nah," the man replies, "I don't feel like explaining it three times."

Agreed! Most Polish women are slim......but not that hot IMO (then again Poland has a population of 38 million so there has to be a fair few belters!)

When ever you hear someone say "Jaysus dat Polish burd is a bleedin' riode"! they are usually referring to Slovak, Lithuanian, Hungarian, Croatian or Czech girls that most people neatly pigeon-hole as all being from Poland :rolleyes:

Are u really that self important and paranoid? U think that when you are in a shop/cafe ppl actually pay any attention to you, whatever their nationality?

a polish friend laughed heartily at this joke:

"How do you stop a polish tank?
Shoot the guy pushing it."

Most ''Polish'' people aren't from Poland at all: most of the people Irish love labelling ''Polish'' are usually from some other Eastern European nation and we just lazily pigeon hole them in 'Poland'...

Tchaikovsky

And can you tell the difference?

It's the same if we're in Eastern Europe; they won't know whether we're Irish, British, American, Australian until we tell them.

Zatman

I dont think polish people are as hard working as people say especially in my job where they doss like the rest of us but i remember when they came people said they were not great at socialising among us but ive always found them nice guy/girls.

Obviously you will get the odd bad case but same as any nationality

Azureus

There must be some law that states that a Polish girls clothing must be 95% rhinestone!! Everything seems to have em on it!

Most Polish people will insist out that Poland is in Central Europe

Mind you having studied Geography in the eighties I have enough trouble remembering that "Czechslovakia" is two countries, Germany is one, Lithuania/Latvia/Estonia arent "in Russia" and in "Yugoslavia" every house is now an independent country with the neighbours arguing over the garden fence and at least one family member who thinks the people next door are their real parents.

Spare a thought for those from Poland (or wherever) who live/work in Northern Ireland. Some of the locals get upset if one calls them "English" others take exception to being called "Irish" etc etc -must get very confusing !?!

Are you kidding? It's sooo simple to tell the difference:
the fat ones are American,
the chavs in tracksuits are British,
the ones walking upside down are Ausies,
and the ugly ones with red hair and freckles are Irish - everybody knows that...:rolleyes:
