Summary/Abstract: In my article I want to focuse on phenomenon which functions as “loser culture”. In addition, the purpose of these thoughts will be characteristics untypical community of “losers” and their the most recognizable antihero, whose Tomasz Bąk called “human cunt”. The basic example belonging to the broadly defined “loss” will be the poetic work of the contemporary Polish poet: Tomasz Bąk. The starting questions for my thoughts will be the following fundamental problems: 1. Did the phenomenon of “loser culture” really occur in Poland? 2. If so, what is it and what are its characteristics? 3. Who are the community of “losers” and the “human cunt”? 4. What social, economic, political and cultural consequences do the phenomenon have? I hope that the answer to the mentioned problems help to characterize “loser culture”.
