Poles apparently regard thermselves as Europe's most attractive people who have the best food and can hold their booze better than others. Do you agree?

No, we don't. I think you only raise this issue to provoke some well-known trolls of the Polish Forums to take part in another pointless discussion.

Yes, actually ;) ... Well, OK, the fairer half, anyways.

However:

TFA:
[...] 17 percent of Poles think they are the best drivers in Europe, however.

So 17% of the sample were clearly smoking crack when responding. That's gotta be a concern.

The Polish are equally "British" as the British! - reveals the Guardian poll!

Question: Is Great Britain a country I admire? was answered 'Yes' by 47% of the British respondents as well as by 39% of the Polish respondents [and only by 33% of the German ones, 22% of the French, 29% of the Spanish].

Question: Is Great Britain a country I do not admire? was answered 'Yes' by 23% of the British, of the German, of the Polish, while other nations were more sceptical towards Britain: 25% of the Sanish and 35% of the French did not admire Britain.

The women? But of course! The men? Average-looking.... (don't mean to generalize). Polish food is nice, but you'd have to be a retard to say it's better than Italian or French food in terms of being the best; I wouldn't say Polish food is even among the international best. As for booze, I'd say the Irish tend to be more drunks than Poles, but then again Poles are greater heavy-liquor drinkers, but not as much as the Russians in my opinion.


Haha look at one guys comment on the article page:

British Self-depreciation.

If we thought we were good at things then we simply wouldn't be British.

It was asked a bit different way , who can take more and not to get drunk ..... In my opinion British drink t much more strong alcohol and more frequently .

I think Polish guys are very goodlooking. Who is the sexiest TV star in USA? ........ polish guy - Jared Padalecki . See on You Tube how female audience reacts , haha . :)

"Fifty seven percent of Poles told opinion pollsters ICM that they thought they were the most attractive in Europe" Well Polish girls (while still young) in general are pretty, there are definitely a lot of them. As for men i dunno i don't look at them that way.

It's obvious that the world needs to be Polanized. We already have the North Pole and the South Pole. Now it's time to convert the middle.

Whatever. Everyone's ugly, and if they're not ugly on the outside they're probably ugly on the inside. I don't think there's a reason to be proud of being a heavy drinker either.

Where do they find these people to answer the questions? I've never been interviewed for a poll and no one I know has ever been interviewed for a poll

It's all depends on whether they have their mask on or off ;)

Maybe some ginseng tea during the day, and Valerian root at night.

You do realize that Teekanne Group is German. Perhaps that’s why you get ‘visuals’ on peppermint. It’s been genetically modified by army of Dr. Mengele’s miniature clones, they all say hi btw.

One night in Warsaw I was at Club Underground.
Some girls on holiday from Britain overheard my American accent, so they started a friendly chat.
I asked, how's the trip going?
The response: "It's so unfair, we can't compete with these damn girls"

Nooo, that's a joke, right? Of course we're the best drivers in Europe! And that's why the world loves us:

TEEKANNE is in Serbia presented as Polish product. So, Serbians consume it. We have a lot of tea on our market but we prefer TEEKANNE exclusively because it nicely says on declaration: `Product of Poland`

well, Poland is respected here. So yes, if manage to present product as Polish, one can profit from it. Only important thing is that product originally was produced in Poland (that declaration confirms it), no matter what brand. Serbian logic goes in direction: ``if i buy this, people in Poland would have more job. i`ll buy it and be nice on Poland. Poles are our people. On the end, Polish products are good, better then German, British or French.`` and Serbian goes happy out of supermarket

Polish rubber industry is presented here very well. You won`t believe who promote it. Russians. LUKOIL
