A 10 minute speech

[Topha]

I have to hold a 10 minute speech for my english class at university sometime in the next couple of weeks (teacher will chose people randomly), but I can't think of any topic that I can talk about for 10 minutes. All the ones I thought of so far can either be concluded with a couple of sentences, or they are way to complex (we may not use any visual aids).

So, do you guys have any ideas? All suggestions are highly appreciated

Spam?

The influence of useless (?) forums on the technical support regarding products and on the social life of the posters of those forums ?


Seriously: does it have to be computer related ?

You can talk about yourself and your exploits. It'll chew up a good chunk of time as long as you can remember what you did 5 mintutes ago, hehe.

Had some sorta social class in college where that's ALL we did was speak in front of the class.

[Maggi]

bah, just babble about MURC and why you spend so much time in here ...

or make it more general and talk about the great opportunities that the internet offers for making and keeping global friendships

Explain Object-Oriented programming.

Err... does "visual aids" mean you don't get the blackboard either?

Hmm...

Recite Coleridge from memory.

How about choosing the subject bullshit.

You then talk about anything.

ah, If you can't use any visual aids, then wouldn't you be as blind as a bat?
I know I am without my glasses.

Well, you can always talk about how many people offered you suggestions on what to talk about.

I think Gurm has the right idea, object oriented programming.

They will all fall asleep within 30 seconds, you can pick your nose for 9 1/2 minutes, and then smack the desk and shout "Wake up!"

I once had a history professor who did that every day for an hour.

[lAmerZ]

talk about useless threads ('bout Zokin')...

[The PIT]

How about all the strange people in MURC.

[Admiral]

Well, if you manage to pull this through you'd probably make a good politician
