Hey, has anyone seen the new show on Netflix "The Curious Creations of Christine McConnell"?
It's like a cooking show crossed with the Cryptkeeper segments of Tales from the Crypt and a splash of MST3K. And maybe a little bit of Bob Ross. Seems like the sort of thing YOU might enjoy, yes you specifically, your-name.

Doing some public speaking on Thursday, anyone got any tips?

I already know the classics like imagining an audience full of underwear, summoning the ghost of charlie chaplin to keep the crowd interested, and using finger guns for emphasis.

Look in between the people while you talk, only glancing eye contact while going from one gap to the next, to give the appearance of making eye contact

-Never say "umm"

-Find a friend in the audience, someone who smiles a lot and seems friendly- talk to them. Sweep the rest of the audience from time to time, but center back on your friend and talk to them in normal conversational tones.

-Practice in a mirror beforehand- be confident and familiar with what you're talking about, and also what you are going to say

-Video yourself speaking, make sure your posture indicates confidence, an audience prefers a confident speaker

-Walk in on other people's presentations a few minutes before they are supposed to speak and do the presentation for them. Wing it. Ad libbing can be a great way to get comfortable with public speaking, just make sure you're faster than security, should they decide to be rude and interrupt your presentation!

You'll do great, just pretend you're posting here in BYOB- 'Yobbers would support you no matter what!

And on that note, a lot of people make this mouth clicking noise every time they start a new thought. It drives me absolutely loony, and if someone's doing it on a youtube video or something I will 100% stop watching just because of that noise. It's common enough that I can predict when it's going to happen.

I dunno if that's just me who it bothers but I have a thing about mouth noises. My mother started doing this thing where she sucks in air through her front teeth and it's gross enough I don't even want to speak to her anymore. But fart around me all you want I don't care.

If your nervous about speaking though, honestly the best fix is just to be super familiar with whatever you're speaking about and prepare appropriately. If you're an expert on the topic, then it's easier to be more relaxed and fall into a groove. Public speaking is terrifying, but 90% of the battle is in your mind. Once you get over your fears, then the rest is just speaking clearly and not rushing so that people can understand you better.

And on that note, never read off your powerpoint slides. All it does is tell the audience that you're not prepared and you don't know enough on the topic on to gab. Make sure you prepare a bunch of talking points beforehand, but if you read off of a script it won't feel organic. I have two eyes and a 2nd grade education, I already read your slides before you even started talking. Tell me something I don't know.

Thanks pals! I'm actually kind of excited for it (maybe looking forward to getting it over with?) and these tips are really helpful. Just gotta talk about my experience with my company, and hey, I'm an expert on myself and a lead in the field of Stooge-ology.

cutting bone but drat if you didn't just make a genius marketing move by suggesting bone saws made of bone/bone handled bone saw

never can tell when you and your 15 friends will get into a random fistfight and accidentally kill some guy and wouldn't it be cool when everyone pulls out their bone saws and you are the one with the artisanal crafted bone handled bone saw?

it's a bone saw, not a status symbol. it may be a no-name chinese knockoff, but it saws bone just the same, for like a third of the price, AND it supports flash. okay, the battery life sucks, but that's why god made extension cords.
