What?! I can’t see how using « nips » in that context would ever be appropriate for a professional conference.

I can't remember if I ever found such jokes funny. It's infantile, in many ways. My response to these jokes is a bland I-dont-get-it stare, because really I do not get it. I don't care if people without sense of humor think I don't have a sense of humor.

I made a breastfeeding joke about nips to NIPS once (we have a collection of mugs). That said, with a name like NIPS, I hope the conference lactation room for nursing mothers is top notch!pic.twitter.com/p7w2Leawdr

sadly childcare and inclusivity in STEM conferences are still a pipe dream
