Saudi Arabia should be stripped of all chess titles because they discriminate participants in an international event.

As a German, I also demand that all Saudis are only allowed to enter the country in Bavarian Lederhosen and that their wives must wear a Dirndl, and they must eat white sausage with radish and liver dumplings, and they must only drink Hefeweizen, because our national traditions are at least as important as those of the Saudis!

Yes, I know, this message already has a beard, but even I have to shave from time to time! πŸ˜‚

@kalfatermann @jeffowski What are you both on about?

First of all, there is absolutely no requirement for a woman traveling to Saudi to wear any specific clothing, to have a male companion, or to cover any part of her body that isn't to do with modesty. That's complete bullshit. Both my sister and wife have been, ALONE, to Saudi.

Second, if that requirement to enter Germany is applied to all countries, not just Saudi, I'd delightly oblige if there's no limit on the Hefeweizen.

BewarePizza

@kalfatermann @jeffowski and before either of you go: "COVERING HER FACE IS MODESTY????", I mean general modesty. Women dress moderately modestly in Saudi. No short shorts, no tank tops. That's practically all of it. We've visited countries in Asia and have been asked to respect their cultures. It's the same.

People generally speak of sarcasm and if you are open-minded, then you also understand this type of humor.

Also nix für ungut und locker bleiben ☘️

@kalfatermann @bewarepizza @jeffowski This type of sarcasm doesn't translate well on a screen, my apologies. Now allow me a moment to use Google Translate.

The beer yes, the sarcasm only to a limited extent! πŸ˜‚

@kalfatermann @jeffowski @koehntopp Weißwurst mit Radi? Hast Du noch alle Tassen im Schrank???

[ツ] For Harris and Walz

@zappes
Nein, ich verwende GrundsΓ€tzlich nur CafΓ©-GlΓ€ser mit 700ml, die Tassen haben einfach zu wenig Volumen, da trocknet der Inhalt allein beim Hinsehen aus.

Übrigens: Der Fachbegriff lautet Sarkasmus!

@kalfatermann @jeffowski Sachertorte too, and strong black coffee with a little glass of rum on the side

Bavaria is unfortunately still a male domain, amazing that so many girls take part. It's definitely crazy, but in a nice way.

@kalfatermann And all official dinners must conclude like this - but with lederhosen and dirndl outfits youtube.com/watch?v=V2r6Id0tGS

@kalfatermann That's the one! It should be added to every official gathering

Just not in those uniforms and certainly not having to re-experience that time!

@sinabhfuil @kalfatermann omg that is both hilarious & deeply strange & disturbing, especially in mixed gender bumdrumming or spanking or whatever the fudge that is

There are many types of "Plattlern" traditions, especially in Bavaria, such as "Schuplattlern" (see video) and similar dances, and there's nothing terrible about that.

Here in Germany, there is no gender segregation in schools, only in some private schools.

In Florida, you should tax your churches and not let them feed you so much bullshit as if you were little mice.

Man, please grow up!

@kalfatermann @sinabhfuil I'm not sure what taxing churches in Florida & children slapping each others upside down butts in Bavaria have in common but you do you & have a nice day.

@3dogcouch
Indoctrination has something to do with it! American churches interfere everywhere and spread fear. That's more like brainwashing than religion. They do not pay taxes, but interfere in all state affairs. How can those churches accept a rapist, racist, liar, fraudster and mass murderer, who wants now to become God-Emperor, to legally murder political opponents, and is deeply supported? All these indoctrinations lead to fear over a children's group's "Plattlern" video!

[ツ] For Harris and Walz

@sinabhfuil

@3dogcouch got excited about the kids patting each other on the butt in the "platter" video of this tradition performance. It also came up to that it was a mixed group of girls and boys. In Florida, they see evil and devilry everywhere, and this should come as no surprise. I had added a warning, but then I was blocked, and 3dogcouch is very happy now, that this possibility exists in Mastodon. Technically, this is not right, but if someone feels comfortable with it. πŸ˜‚

@kalfatermann Ah yes, was watching a Harry Potter film last night in which a ragey woman dressed all in pink with bows, and looking suspiciously like Thatcher, instituted a rule that no boy and girl may be within 8" of each other… same thinking

[ツ] For Harris and Walz replied to Petrichor

@sinabhfuil
Now I remember, thank you, in one of the Potter movies she becomes principal and has totally old-fashioned views on the duties and rights of the students. I should still have my godchild's DVD set somewhere, maybe I'll manage to watch them all in order at Easter.

Petrichor replied to [ツ] For Harris and Walz

@kalfatermann Yeah, it was funny, but the ending lost me - she was the best thing in it - with strong competition from Miss Trelawney

@sinabhfuil
Now I remember even better, thank you ☘️ The lady on the right in pink was the principal.

Petrichor

@3dogcouch @kalfatermann I'd think myself that the concept of churches being tax free, whatever kind of religious organisation we're talking about, should be long gone
