Help me pick a speech topic
I am a college freshman taking a class called Introduction to Public Speaking. Basically we get up and make speeches. I've done 2 practice ones, 1 graded one, and all of them have elicited an above-average to very good amount of laughes from class.
Next up is the 6-7 minute informative speech. It can be on any subject as long as it is approved by the teacher. In about 11 hours my topic must be approved. I would probably think of my own but there are a lot of bored people here who need something to do. SO, let's hear em. And please remember, the topic is going to be approved by the teacher, so no blatantly offensive or inappropiate suggestions. I'm thinking it's going to be a subtly funny subject that is usually not regarded as such. But who knows, I might get surprised. Results and trip report probably to follow.

Re: Help me pick a speech topic
meh. If he hasn't already covered the phenomenon of the current explosion of [card game], he should do that. But I figure it's odds-on that was his first speech.

[ QUOTE ] How the hell is he going to do six minutes on Belgium? [/ QUOTE ] That's the challenge! But to help, two words: Asterix, Tin-Tin or is that three? [/ QUOTE ] He could talk about how the diamond traders in Antwerp are responsible for thousands of African kids getting their arms hacked off.... not much humor in that I guess. Damn I'm in a miserable mood today [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]
