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:

    • Does Ukraine have good relations with Poland, or are they more cold, like, for example, Italy with France?
    • Until recently, Ukrainian fencing was just Kharlan and sabre. Maybe epee sometimes. I don't remember them ever was strong in foil. There was a time when Russia, Romania and Poland were strong in foil at that time when Italy dominated but I don't remember Ukraine anymore.   Hungarian women with Aida Mahomed were too strong for many years.
    • No surprise with Aaron Judge winning AL MVP and Shohei Ohtani winning NL MVP awards.   Ohtani is the second player in history to win MVP in both leagues. Frank Robinson (1961 Reds & 1966 Orioles) was the only one before.

    • Argentina also has ski centers on the Tierra del Fuego but that doesn't mean it will immediately become a powerhouse in this sport 
    • Speak for yourself. Why should we give up our one great talent of the younger generation when we have no one else? Maybe from the same reason that the USA didn't give up Schiffrin to another country when she had 17-18...
    • A very ignorant statement.   Of course the UK is not exactly known for its winter sport but there are some ski resorts mainly in Scotland, like the Cairngorms or the Nevis Range.
