Poland can into space?

Magma_Dragoon · Sep 9, 2013

I was curious about that achievement name, so I did some research. Turns out it started as a comic on krautchan, a German equivalent to , in the /int/ (international) subforum. It started a joke by a British poster using some of the more hilarious posts in broken English by a certain Pole. It then evolved into a current event and historical humor delivery vehicle. Here are some of my favorites so far:

Into space!

Umm. . . that last one? I'm not, like, particularly pro-Israel but c'mon dude. That's some Protocols of the Elders of Zion shyit right there.

It's supposed to be patronizing.

Countryballs are hilarious! Reddit is a decent place to find some, imgur too.

Polandball is hilarious, though all the comics above are one of the worst I've seen. These are from reddit, aren't they? Gotta check if I have any saved from the birthplace of Polandball.

The original Poland cannot to space one

The Fakenavia

Russians being russians

Polandball finds oil

I am actually about 75% sure that the "Poland can into space" TERM originated on /vg/ from the Grand Strategy General. "Into spacing" was a term used to refer to countries that could easily "blob" and conquer the entire world or quite a hefty portion of it (You conquer so hard you go into space, get it?). However, no matter how hard you tried, it was extremely difficult to world conquer with Poland, so Poland could not into space.

Polandball existed way before /vg/ was even created, and originated on Krautchan. The Grand Strategy threads just take the term from there.
