Tip: Kegels are an excellent wake-up when absolutely desperate not to fall asleep in public.

It can't be as bad as music conferences - songwriting workshops, guerilla marketing seminars, afforementioned "demo derby"s, etc.

This has made it all worthwhile

Oh man I hope I remember this thread next time I'm at an insurance agency data-management system conference. Yes, "next time".

― nklshs (nklshs), Friday, 16 February 2007 21:56 (nineteen years ago)

i have never attended a conference!

my dad goes to about 3 billion a year though.

the last conference i went to featured drunken IT sluts from Jersey trying to bone the unsingle bossman the whole time.

Anybody know what thread this is!?!?

― nklshs (nklshs), Friday, 16 February 2007 22:59 (nineteen years ago)

i'm in an airport

― ^@^ (map), Friday, 16 February 2007 23:02 (nineteen years ago)

i have been to many conferences, some with boring parts

i have not done kegels while at them though, that i recall. [tmi sentence]

― impermanent rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Friday, 16 February 2007 23:49 (nineteen years ago)

Reasons kegels are good:

1. Wake you up
2. No one can tell
3. Good for girl-parts health
4. Kind of hawt

― Laurel (Laurel), Saturday, 17 February 2007 02:43 (nineteen years ago)

I was at a conference today too. But it was on copyright so I thought it was interesting and enjoyed it because I'm pathetic and geeky.

― The Many Faces of Gordon Jump (Leon), Saturday, 17 February 2007 02:53 (nineteen years ago)

otm. my tmi sentence said that in more tmi ways - also, sometimes they can, uh, wake you up too much
xpost

that is a good thing to be geeky about!

― impermanent rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Saturday, 17 February 2007 02:55 (nineteen years ago)

i mean, i've been to conferences with more than one panel on, like, comic books, and enjoyed the whole thing even though i knew nothing about comic books (i now know some stuff)

― impermanent rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Saturday, 17 February 2007 03:00 (nineteen years ago)

i have to go to one in a couple weeks and it is going to be sooo boring and about databases -_- but i get to go to san diego!!!

plus you get lots of blinking necklaces with company logos and fake beanie babies and laser pens. someday i will find a use for these things.

― bell labs (bell_labs), Saturday, 17 February 2007 05:09 (nineteen years ago)

san diego is a dump which produces unseemly louts like myself and shasta

― vahid (vahid), Saturday, 17 February 2007 05:12 (nineteen years ago)

ohh also what should i do in san diego besides zoo and stalk miller puckette? WHERE 2 BURRITOS?

― bell labs (bell_labs), Saturday, 17 February 2007 05:29 (nineteen years ago)

I don't know about downtown burritos other than Pokez (10th and E).

― Tim Ellison is number one proponent of Beatle!!!Mania!!! on nu-ILX (tim ellison), Saturday, 17 February 2007 05:32 (nineteen years ago)

will travel for best burritos

― bell labs (bell_labs), Saturday, 17 February 2007 05:40 (nineteen years ago)

Actually, Valentine's is a pretty good taco shop that's downtown. It's on Market.

has anyone ever actually sat and listened to all of "I am sitting in a room" that didn't have to do it for school?

― chaki (chaki), Saturday, 17 February 2007 05:46 (nineteen years ago)

i make a living off of conferences.

ive had to sit through too many.

the best are the marketing ones. the worst are leagal or medical ones. the most hilarious one was a conference for b0tox. pharma reps are like the cool kids you never hung out with in high school and b0tox reps are like trhe cool kids in a high school of nothing but pharma reps.

i didnt have to work today though, i got high and hit golf balls instead.

i hate socializing with people at conferences, but i like having a hotel room with a giant bed and cable. also hotel breakfasts are awesome.

― bell labs (bell_labs), Saturday, 17 February 2007 06:11 (nineteen years ago)

has anyone ever actually sat and listened to all of "I am sitting in a room" that didn't have to do it for school?

yes, but i've never had to do it for school. you can get credit for that?

― children of mentalists (get bent), Saturday, 17 February 2007 06:13 (nineteen years ago)

ohh also what should i do in san diego besides zoo and stalk miller puckette?

go to hillcrest and waste a few hours in the gay bookstores. and go eat a gyros plate in that greek restaurant with the blue and white decor.

― children of mentalists (get bent), Saturday, 17 February 2007 06:16 (nineteen years ago)

conferences are always too busy to enjoy mornings

― jw (ex machina), Saturday, 17 February 2007 06:30 (nineteen years ago)

has anyone ever actually sat and listened to all of "I am sitting in a room" that didn't have to do it for school?

Yes, but only a few times. Usually I skip straight to side 2. Which basically just sounds like it could fit on selected ambient II.

― ian (orion), Saturday, 17 February 2007 07:10 (nineteen years ago)

if someone brings waffles, fruit and coffeee to your room at 7:30, morning is nice!

― bell labs (bell_labs), Saturday, 17 February 2007 07:21 (nineteen years ago)

I had a business room once with a river view, a fireplace, and a bathroom the size of my current kitchen (also hot tub). I could have stayed a lot longer than two days. No room service, tho.

― Laurel (Laurel), Saturday, 17 February 2007 07:23 (nineteen years ago)

8:30 @ the earliest or else i will fall back asleep and the coffee/waffles will get cold. xpost

― ian (orion), Saturday, 17 February 2007 07:24 (nineteen years ago)

i luv luv luv staying in nice hotels. if i were super-rich i would live in one.

― children of mentalists (get bent), Saturday, 17 February 2007 07:36 (nineteen years ago)

how do i shot business trip + hotel room? the extent of my work traveling is usually taking the subway downtown to the county clerk and state dept. but at least i get $4 from that (i use my metro card but get to charge for 2 $2 train trips!).

― tehresa (tehresa), Saturday, 17 February 2007 07:47 (nineteen years ago)

you can have 2 red bulls

― jw (ex machina), Saturday, 17 February 2007 08:01 (nineteen years ago)

my next "business trip" (the apa conference in philly) i'm footing the bill for airfare + my part of a shared hotel room, but the apa is reimbursing me for the actual conference fee (already discounted student rate) because i'm giving them a few hours of volunteer time. hopefully they'll give me some time off to go eat cheesesteaks!

― children of mentalists (get bent), Saturday, 17 February 2007 08:17 (nineteen years ago)

if i were super-rich i would live in one.

this is my dream. i want a whole floor.
