Some Aussie must hate the Polish

Or some Polish ex-pats in Australia have learned to laugh at themselves.

Interesting. In Australia there's no assumed racism against Polish people like in the US. You have Polish jokes, we have Irish jokes (and even those are on the way out). So I don't think most Australians would make the connection between the whole Polish = stupid thing. If that's what's supposed to be happening with those ads. I just saw it as a bit of silliness, based on the origin of the vodka. The first one isn't bad, the second is boring, needs to be cut down to 15 seconds.
