Sorry this is a bit off topic but this woman is driving me crazy so i have to respond.
Ohh Patrycja you have got to learn to pay attention and not assume so much and if you are going to assume things than make sure to state that and perhaps ask for a correction if you happen to be wrong, other wise u just come off looking like a 40 watt bulb..
Like with your post on my thread i'll take the time to explain things to you and hope for the best.
Please point out where i discuss how hard my life has been or better yet claim that it was hard. As far as i can tell all i presented in my statement was that it was not an quick/easy process to get out of Poland, a communist country @ the time. A commentary on the topic @ hand and something AmirahJanowitz & plk123 were talking about. As things would have it, in fact my life was quite easy and worry free for the most part due to the hard work and love of my parents, but that's neither here nor there.
Quoting: Patrycja19 I would think you would be more appreciative..
If you would think @ all you wouldn't make such an unsupported claim.
Without getting into too much detail i can safely tell you that i appreciate what this country did for my family and all the other immigrants like us immensely. My American friends are astonished how patriotic and involved i am ( much more so than they are ) in the fight for this nation not even being born here. I fight to keep it moving in the right direction every day. Not being a person holding a political position of power i do my little bits to keep this nation going in the right direction, although more and more now trying to bring it back from the of wrong direction it has been moving in for some time. Disseminating literary, audio and visual information to as many people as i can reach. Contacting my representatives in government on a regular basis in the effort to keep them voting correctly etc. etc. etc.
How much do you do Patrycja ?
My guess is not much, my guess is that you're not even particularly well informed on what is actually happening in this country of ours. I derive that guess from your comment, because if you were informed you would not questioned my appreciation for this nation but understood it what i said about falling like Rome and perhaps commented in agreement with it, despite it's exaggerated level @ least for the time being.
I tell you what i do agree with you on...
Quoting: Patrycja19 yes we are going thru some tough times right now, but its the people that need to stick together
that is true we do need to stick together but thus far that couldn't be further from the truth could it. Since never in history of this nation other than perhaps the Civil war has this nation been more polarized. All the while our own government takes advantage of our divide over petty things, further plunging this nation into turmoil and eventual collapse, like Rome Patrycja........ providing that people do not wake up and involved.
Do you know what the average life cycle or a republic is.... about 300 years.
Do you know why they usually fall, mainly due to internal corruption and apathy on the part of it's people.
Quoting: Patrycja19 you say mean things about American girls, but you only been with a few of them, not the who nation and so you make like those few represent the whole America.. would you want people to say the same about Poland?
Ok here we go, r u ready ??
The 1st part is a fabrication of your hyper imagination ( see the reply in my thread )
by the way how do you know how many women i've had the pleasure of being with or knowing ?? There is that prophet syndrome kicking in again.
I think i figured out correctly that you tried to say in the second half of that statement so i'll try to reply to that.
People generalize on things all the time some are generalizations are true and some are not. some examples for you : Polaks are stupid, Jews are good with money, American girls are nuts.
Polaks are stupid: is that true, of course not but ask was it true when it originated and the simple answer is yes like it or not. How is that true u may ask, well during the mass immigration to America between 1899-1930 or so the bulk of the immigrants were uneducated simple people. So to the established populace ( previous immigrants ) that was an easy generalization based on lack of the immigrans formal education. Does that mean that all were stupid or that even the ones that were not highly educated but highly adaptable and street smart were, of course not. However, on a educational level as a generalization it applied and was true. It certainly doen't apply any more.
Jews are good with money: Is every Jew good with money ? Nope
but as a people comparatively to other societies do the Jewish people more often stick as close nit families and pass on their acquired business knowledge from generation to generation yes.......the proof is in the pudding my dear, how else can a people that have been brutalized so much through our history survive and flourish. making the generalization true.
American girls are nuts: again is every one of them nuts ? nope
Statistically are American girls more prone to be self centered, career oriented, materialistic, not as family oriented, driven, independent, quicker to take the divorce route women that lets say Mexican, Chinese, Japanese, or Polish for that matter. That would be a yes. Simple cultural differences, not even commenting on right and wrong or better and worse just different.
So when it comes to marriage and setting up a family those characteristics make them nuts to me.
Without generalizations there is not truth...... i am not going to take the time to explain this to you, in case you don't understand what i mean.
****Lastly for Christ sake don't take everything so literally, there is such a thing as humor, look into it, it's fun. ****
Quoting: Patrycja19 no u just have to vote for the guy that deals with it..
In a two party system with both parties corrupted with little difference between them do you honestly think voting is the solution ? Can you be this naive ?
