1 --- 2 title: Polish skin cream 3 dream: dated 4 date: 2024-05-14 5 --- 6 7 I was on holiday in a European city in a cosy but sparesely decorated room with a double bed, white tiled walls and a patch of black mold on a high ceiling. 8 9 I was with a friend who had brought with them a group of people I didn't know who'd just happened to be there and we were all socialising in English. 10 11 In the middle of the conversation one of the women in the group had mentioned a specific skin cream so her and my friend left the house to get some, leaving me alone with the group of unknown people. 12 13 A tall blonde haired man then started speaking to me, he had a son of about 14 who looked mostly identical to him. His son was explaining that my friend was very pretty while his dad encouraged him to ask her out in a sort of joking manner. 14 15 The father who was in his mid 30's then explained he was Polish, so I tried explaining I knew only one word in Polish, *czkawka* for hiccups but I was pronouncing it wrong. I then tried explaining the *other* word I knew in Polish but he already was well aware of the prevelence of kurwa. 16 17 He then tried explaining to me about 'sniffins' which was a kind of jokey rude word for male toilets, like 'bogs' in English. 18 19 By this time my friend had arrived back with a clear glass vase shaped vessel with a screw lid with a thick creamy liquid inside that was applied with a honey dipper.
