How useful do you find these congresses? Do you learn anything new?

Yes, there are always some new things
Why don't they open the windows

Usually, windows are opened during breaks, but when there is, for example, a 1.5-hour session after a break with a room full of people, the room becomes "sleepy".

a scientific congress, i.e. sitting in a large darkened room with (sometimes) hundreds of other participants and listening to lectures.

I think that's what's meant by a conference over here. Thankfully, I only have to attend them twice yearly.

you cannot control drowsiness.

That's been my problem attending them. Usually because I find them quite boring, although this year we did have one absolutely riveting guest speaker which turned out to be the highlight of the day.

Fortunately, such people also happen. Returning to clothes, the vast majority of my colleagues wear suits and, just to be clear, no one wears sneakers with suits (which has been fashionable recently), and neither do I.

German women love Birkenstock shoes, the most 'unfeminine' shoes in the entire world. Why? πŸ€”

@Alien, because Birkenstock shoes are comfortable and Germans like walking and hiking? πŸ€”

And that they "like" it is probably an understatement lol:



"@thegravellesstraveled2320
I was a US soldier stationed in Garmisch Germany and I would hike up the mountains on my off days. One day I took a friend who was new to the base. We got about half way up and he crapped out. As he was sitting on the side of the trail trying to recover an elderly German women passed us and asked him his age. He said 22. She laughed and said she was 78 and kept on laughing until she was out of sight 🀣

As a german I can confirm that 19 km are the warm-up."

Me too, I try to walk at least 1 hour a day.

German women

Apart from wearing Birkenstocks, German women usually dress in loose, wide (too wide) clothes, the dominant colour of which is all shades of grey. Yes, German women are very practical.

walk at least 1 hour a day.

During this time I can take up to 8,000 steps. I recommend it to everyone, regardless of the weather....in winter, of course, waterproof shoes.

I told you it was coming a few days ago in a post when it was so cold here.
That post has since been deleted by the Mod. for some reason like so many of my posts have been.
This morning in Northern Michigan areas hit -25C.
We have been hit with TEN Polar Vortexes so far this winter.
Something to do with Global Warming I guess.
Put my insulated boots on and go snow shoeing.

Today we have "only" -15C, but beautiful sun and snow.

Same here, -15C ........it is starting to warm up.
The polar vortex is moving out of here.
By next week we will have above freezing temperatures which everyone is looking forward to including my deer and birds.
This means by the end of next week it should start warming up in Poland.

In Germany it is usually warmer than in Poland. German men usually do not wear hats, even in winter....and they wear half-boots all year round.

The LVMH Group, which owns the Birkenstock brand, wanted to legally ensure that the Birkenstock form is a work of art. Of course, in order to collect license fees for longer. Fortunately, a wise court rejected this yesterday.

This year, colors and natural leather are coming back into fashion. Interesting, interesting, the streets will become more colorful. A decent leather jacket and leather shoes for the summer. πŸŽ©πŸ‘’

Does the name Dawid Tomaszewski ring a bell? He is a Polish fashion designer living and working in Berlin. Very colorful fashion.

Business is business. Why shouldn't straight men take over the business. After all, women drive trucks or buses and play football.

Because.

Anyway, straights run enough things. Certain spheres of life are however ours. And we do them well.

Can you define what a woman is?

Its all lesbos that partake in those sports or drive trucks. The American woman's basketball team is 100% lesbo and they wonder why their attendance is so low. Now, they want equal pay as the men who actually fill the stadiums across the country.

If you are suggesting people don't watch them because of who they sleep with then Americans are even dumber than I thought.

The lezbos of the WNBA are constantly complaining that they dont make enough as the NBA players. Where is the money supposed to come from? They can barely sell 2000 seats at one of their games...lol Some NBA fans pay $1000s to go see them play.

Then we have foreign morons like the one above you that constantly tells Americans whats its like living in the USA.. How about a cup of STFU already!

I like living in the US.

You would have to pay me to go to Europe. Why? To see some cathedrals? I would rather cruise Michigan.

Maybe not but I can only go with what I see and Joker statement is either untrue or portreys Americans as imbeciles.

tells Americans whats its like living in the USA..

Can you please point out where I did that?

No.

You would have to pay me to go to Europe.

I feel the same way about USA. And even then I would have to think hard about it.

There's nothing to do in Europe except visit old buildings and museums. You can see the look of desperation in people who want to leave but feel trapped in a humdrum life, lacking true freedom of speech.

I could care less about some foreign moron opinions about the USA as well. This idiot cant even understand basic economics of basketball.

...and the stress of not being able to communicate with the locals - if only to ask for directions.

Without my car I feel homeless.

That's a cherry on top. The main reason is they are sh'ty, who wants to watch them lesbian chicks playing at playing and pay money for it while they have a real deal with professional men players? They only reason to watch them for men would be if they are pretty if they are ugly lesbos attraction is gone and there is nothing else.
