Also Italian and Portuguese moms. Heck, all of the European moms anyway.
RELATED:
Daniel Czapiewski turned architecture on its head when he designed a rather unique and strange building in 2007. Poland’s ‘upside down house’ became the first of its kind on the planet. And since then, several others have popped up (or down) around the world. Czapiewski’s work aimed to teach visitors about the country’s political history, and its relationship with communism. The architect’s message: life in Communist Poland turned the world upside down.
As Atlas Obscura reports, “The upside down house is essentially a fully furnished home like any other, but took much longer than normal to build as workers kept becoming disoriented, forcing them to stop work. It wasn’t even built simply upside down, but on a tilt as well, essentially eliminating the comfort of a reliable, flat surface.”
Visitors enter the house by climbing through the attic window, and are able to walk around on the ceiling once inside. The interior is furnished with 1970s decor and a television shows propaganda from that era. Many have reported feeling dizzy and a bit confused after visiting the tourist attraction.

It's an Eastern European thing, I guess. Greek moms do that too! I'm 48 and my mom still does that 😅

I can’t imagine Europeans wearing that to be honest. We just don’t care that much about stuff like cursing. It’s still funny to me that the US even censors TV and radio. Must be annoying to listen to a song and hear “beep” all the time.

And that is actually a big problem here as Catholic Curch has a big sway over our politics and our lives in general, especially when it comes to older generations. As a result our people often are very unfriendly toward LGBT people, we have religion in schools (though it's no longer obligatory, yay!), our abortions are mostly illegal, day-after pills hard to obtain and only with prescription and many other Church-morals-related problems.

Does this not apply to every country? It's standard here in New Zealand too.

Actually, Poland's legal drinking age is 18 - higher than in many Western European countries. But it is true that many of us try alcohol earlier (quite often with our parents knowledge as they believe that it's better to try it in controlled environment than get unconscious drunk during a party) and we have rather liberal attitude toward drinking

Wasn't that thing a frikkin show of bribery? I think this was build in National Park.

The castle was not built in a National Park, but in the Nature 2000 area. This is a huge difference.

Hm, I put down a drink one night next to my bed and passed out. Woke up thirsty, grabbed the glass. Whiskey is one sure fire way of waking up quick.

Tbf we don't have too many things to smile about. In general, when you talk with a Pole and suddenly they start smiling - you screwed up, especially if the smile is not changing. We start to smile a lot when we're angry and/or upset but social situation doesn't allow us to show it - it's a defense mechanism of sort.

While we have a lot of painful history with neighbouring countries - I guess the same may be said about most if not all other countries. But we like to show our pain and suffering, and martyrdom, and we love our failed uprisings (almost all of them failed) - to the point where a big part of our culture is built around it. And it isn't a good thing as it makes us paranoid and often makes economical/social/any-other-kind growth much harder (as we distrust everything reccomended or preferred by other countries and often prefer to i.e. pay financial fines that agree with this or that "because this evil EU told us so"). I blame XIX century and its poets as during this time the idea of Poland being a martyr started being very popular.
