My curling pants are that kind - only the pockets are a hint (in fact only their direction "inside" the pants") :p However @Olympian1010 is not the person I'd accuse of wearing curling pants at the university. :d

Yeah, not wearing pants. They’re a pair of sweatpants that I wear since I skate to and from university.

I would absolutely wear any of the above, just maybe not University. Too many of private school uniforms to dress “out-there” for school.

In the newest viral joke here, one Indonesian Child Protection Agency commissioner warned girls to be careful when swimming in public pools because they could be pregnant from stray sperm in the pools :facepalm:

 

 

And of course it is quickly parodied:

Haiti is really devolving into chaos. Carnival has been called off after the army and protesting police officers began shooting at each other :facepalm::yikes:

 

What is it about French speaking countries and public servants fighting with each other?

Something about this song (sung by any singer) brings me back to it in times of need. I don’t know Macedonian/Bulgarian, and don’t have any connection to that area. However, this song has continually got me through life’s troubles, and I find myself listening to it again tonight. The lyrics are very curious. On one hand it’s sad reflection on death, on the other hand it feels like the beginning of life. I didn’t want to post this in the music thread becuase it means more to me personally than any of the songs in there ever will. I thought I’d share though, since it’s been so good to me.

Weekly mass shooting, at least it wasn’t a school or place of worship this time. 6 dead today, 6 more next week probably :(

I know it's in hebrew but it says that a company here in Israrel, that studied the CoronvaVirus on birds, now saying that they have got a breakthrough in making a vaccination for humen against the current CoronaVirus and they belive that in few weeks they will be able to produce mass ammount of this vaccination.

so good luck for them and it is good news for Tokyo 2020:cheer::clap:

    • really sad when you win a olympic medal 3 years later and no one cares Of course it will be registered and so on, but all those moments of joy etc are gone. Yes its first Croatian wrestling medal since independence, but there was a medal won for Yugoslavia by Croatian.

    • Surely they will unless I am missing something. 
    • So, will they appeal to CAS like in Sinner case?
    • https://www.skysports.com/tennis/news/12110/13262332/iga-swiatek-five-time-grand-slam-champion-accepts-one-month-suspension-in-doping-case Cwnt see WADA not overturning this. One month for a banned substance is very low even for accidental consumption. I’ve only ever heard that short for something banned only in Competition and therefore not seen as fully doping. . 
    • big big news regarding Olympic bronze medalist and two time World Champion  Zurabi Datunashvili   https://ita.sport/news/the-ita-acknowledges-cas-add-decision-sanctioning-wrestler-zurabi-datunashvili-for-anti-doping-rule-violations/   to be honest everything was suspicious about this guy, his sudden improvement since 2021, his body, his sudden retirement in 2023 . its great to see him finally getting caught.   they will reallocate the medals later after the end of the process but his Olympic bronze will go to  Ivan Huklek, I think that will be the first ever wrestling medal for Croatia   his 2021 World title will go  Maskevich and the 2022 gold goes to  Bisultanov Bisultanov will benefit more than anybody else, he also gets a bronze from 2021 and  Kessidis will get a bronze from 2022.
