To sum it up, these are the best ones and probably closest to the truth...

You're Polish if...

you think any breeze or draft will be the death of you
you keep your Christmas tree up till February
if you say Polish like you say polish
think all American desserts are too sweet
if you can't name a country or city without saying "the" in front of it
you think Beer is a soft drink
if you think the English word "nervous" means "angry"
if you blame the air pressure for the way you feel
if you mutter 'dzień dobry' under your breath when entering a shop and directing it at nobody in particular

Yeah, quite accurate for the most part, Pierdolski :) I wonder if they'd say Netherlands instead of The Netherlands or Hague instead of The Hague ;) ;) if....you don't have an ailment of some sort, you have to create one (largely the women)

Pierdolski: You are Polish if... You drive past an Etap Hotel and you think it says Ełap Hotel :) You walk past a butcher's and you see "Pork Pies" in the window, and you think "WTF is a pork dog?? " :)

you hold firmly that children can only safely eat ice cream if it has first been microwaved
you secretly believe Coca Cola is a natural vegetable drink with significant health benefits
you know for a fact that lard with fried onions, kept in an old jam jar out on the balcony, is a delicious and nutritious snack
you own an undernourished yorkshire terrier, and regularly kiss it on the mouth ...

Spot on!

I'd add that you're Polish if you believe the people getting off the tram are actually ghosts that you can pass through effortlessly, and that when on the tram you stand right in the doorway and look surprised when people want to get off.

Pawian, I hope you are joking about the nose-hoover ... I really do ... And another one: You are Polish if you become physically excited at the thought of car boot sales on rainy Sundays.

You are an English girl if ...

You order a double-vodka and orange in a Polish bar.

When your guy gets drunk and throws up, you stroke his hair and tell him you love him.

Sometimes your shoes don't match your nail varnish.

With a real hoover, on full power? Or with the puffing device? Please say not with the hoover plugged in ...

I recommend staying on "being Polish, not English" topic. A road to suspension is short nowadays.
