Been tagged by melissande88:

List 3 things that bug you - things that others may find trivial. Then tag 6 of your friends. Only list 3 things because you may/can be tagged again.

1. People who say 'wziąść'. It makes me want to send them back to their primary school. And ask their teachers what they were doing. It's absolutely disgusting. (For my non-Polish flist - Wziąść is correctly spelled wziąć and said wziąć. It's not difficult, it's just a nasty mistake people make when they are careless. Still, it's such a basic one...)

2. Polish Labour Party, aka SLD - because it's time is nearly over and they're destroying whatever they can. The next Parliament will have to tidy the mess, and it's a grand one. I wonder how in the world they intend to create a budget if they give the miners the money they promised. Oh, I forgot - they took away the money they promised to the young people who want to buy new flats. And they really should face charges for how they dealt with the gas problem - you really have to be f***ing stupid to relay on just one (and unfriendly at that) country as the provider of such a strategically important thing as that.

3. Polish Conservative Party, aka Law and Justice (doesn't that sound like a crime series?), because they promise things they can't give the people even if they can do magic. Such as lower bills, considering the state of the budget.

4. This keyboard, because it makes strange things and I had to type half of this comment twice.

Law and Justice (PiS) more irritating than Self-defence (Samoobrona)?
On the second thought, you might be right, Samoobrona is not iritating. Is beneath contempt.
But I'd argue PiS being conservative. With their economic program?

[novin-ha.livejournal.com]

That's because nothing is the way it should be here. Would you really call PO liberal? Apart from their economic program? Considering Donald?

[bufo-viridis.livejournal.com]

Yes, they're liberal, meaning "as liberal as one can be here". I'll vote for them anyway, there isn't much choice.
Na bezrybiu i Donald... Kaczor? Oj, chyba nie...

[novin-ha.livejournal.com]

I knew a Polish liberal is someone who, during an interview for a women's magazine (let's use an euphemism) answers that he is definitely against state dotations for pills and other birth-control thingies. Liberal after my own heart ;D

Z Kaczorów wolę Donalda :D

[bufo-viridis.livejournal.com]

Well, economically it's quite liberal policy...

[novin-ha.livejournal.com]

My ex history teacher is in PiS :D I'm not going to vote him, despite the fact he's already promised my friend a job once he gets into Senat :D

[bufo-viridis.livejournal.com]

I don't have much against PiS as it is. I believe they mean well and I willing to assume that they are relatively honest. Problem is, they have very centralistic vision of state. All these "special prosecutorships" can be fine and dandy, when they're in their hands (let's assume they;ll resist the urge to abuse the power). But after four years they'll loose the elections, and commies will grab those instruments and they will use it for their own nefarious purposes.

What are social strata in communist society?
Stratum of communists, stratum of lime, stratum of communists, stratum of lime, stratum of communists...

[novin-ha.livejournal.com]

I am generally against people who promise thing that are so totally improbable it hurts. PiS promises lower bills, better health-care... They will never do that. What PO promises is much less, but more realistic. At least so it seems to me. And I know it's silly and immature, but I liked it when they waived off their 'trzynastki' (Christmas time special money).
And I like Tusk, which is so mature. He seems a reasonable, chivalrous, pleasant man. I was always telling I'd marry him to become Mrs Prime Minister, but I don't want to be the first lady, so that's off now.

[novin-ha.livejournal.com]

I feel disillusined - I must admit I thought better of PiS than they proved to be...

Here cometh the bird flu...

[bufo-viridis.livejournal.com]

We'll see - when the post-election quarrels'll calm down and the gov't start acting. Prime minister makes a good impression and he may steer into unsigned-but-real coalition with the Liberals.

And bird flu - at least the real one - won't be a danger before spring...

In the worst case we''l have to watch "Duck Soup"

[novin-ha.livejournal.com]

Good impression... not really, on me. That is to say, he himself yes, good enough, but Ludwik Dorn or mister Ziobro? They give me shivers... And nice Marcinkiewicz says one thing, JArosław another and yet another is done.

I think I should finally become a politician.

[bufo-viridis.livejournal.com]

We'll see what they do - at least at the moment Dorn and Ziobro appear honest which can't be said about their commies predecessors.
You don't prefer Kalwas, who as Minister of Justice actively lobbied in the interest of one laqyers' guild, threatening with leaving his post and than of course not having enough honour to carry on with his decision, when he lost the cause, do you?

[novin-ha.livejournal.com]

Nah. I just so don't like Ziobro... I think the only way to stop this madness is to become a politician myself. This decided... d'you think I oughtta begin m'camapign right now? Why wait?

First: Get a good American accent...
