    Having been involved in debating licensing of hold music for teleconferences in the past, all I can say is never again will I willingly be in a meeting where that is on the agenda

    Shaw routinely has two hour wait times.

    Two hours!

    And our customers complain about 10 minute wait times! When the normal waiting time is 0!

    People up here have no idea how good they have it.

    From a deeply skeptical standpoint yoga is still good stuff

    Even if you don't buy the cognitive or more extensive health benefits, yoga is a comprehensive stretching and stable strength exercise program

    Stretching is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT for your physical health and is drastically underrated in the west

    Lack of stretching is a major cause of injury even among pro athletes

    This basically seems like they're stating their orientation in a strange way

    In context it was not.

    It was something more to the tenor of "I'm done with cisgendered straight men, so if you are don't bother messaging me."

    But it's not exactly like that attitude is prevalent or something. I think this was just a lady who happened to be bitter.

    EDIT: I am not an expert on the subject, but when I played competitive sports the general consensus at the time appeared to be that stretching before competition was not a good idea.

    I don't know what this means but I sense you were trying to be either funny or offensive.

    Possibly both.

    no, because "political correctness gone mad" is really dumb and incredibly offensive also that wasn't a totally serious thing

    Yes, it is Brony. It is male, anthropomorphized versions of the characters.

    This article says it probably helps for some sports and is potentially little or no help in others

    So I guess yes?

    I mean from a really obvious standpoint, stretching regularly improves your range of motion, which means you don't strain your tendons and nerves when extending your limbs in odd ways

    It also mitigates injury which is why physiotherapy involves so much painful stretching
