Live action?!?! GAY.

The Asterix and Obelix movies are terrible. The books are where it's at.

Goscinny and Uderzo

What's that supposed to mean?

Oh, right. Couldn't tell if it was that or he just didn't believe it was possible.

quoteable:

“Did you see that pig on TV?” Phil Blissitt recalled Howell asking him. “I said, 'Yeah, I had one about that size. He said, 'No, that one is yours.'

“That's when I knew.”

Really? fucking

I had to sit through some horrible pathetic meeting yesterday, and the woman giving the presentation said we all needed to wait for her last powerpoint slide because it was a real hoot. So the last slide finally comes, and it starts out blank...

...then the words 'YOU THOUGHT THIS MEETING WAS A BIG BORE?'...

and I can feel the punchline coming...

and next fades in that picture of the inbred fat hick kid that shot the boar with his .50 cal pistol.

and more text flies in

'THIS IS A BIG BOAR!'

And I ended the seminar with "And now its dead so we can really appreciate it."

And everyone laughed more than I really expected because it wasn't a very funny comment... And the presenter looked at me like I had ruined her joke.

So long story short - I hate people who use stupid fly ins, call outs, fade ins, and lame sound effects in powerpoint presentations.

I KNOW HOW TO GET THE AUDIENCE...I WILL MAKE A TYPEWRITER SOUND AS I FLY IN THIS TEXT LETTER BY LETTER WITH A MOUSE CLICK ON EACH ENTRY!

Truth.

Nothing irritates me more than students who give presentations in my classes with powerpoint and think their presentation is somehow deserving of a higher grade because they went to the trouble of adding all sorts of transitions, etc.

Problem is there is a teacher in my department who gives her kids extra credit for that kind of stuff...because you know, that is what a good science education is about...powerpoint effects.

Why do you allow power point presentations? Or maybe not you, but the administration?

I graduated high school in 1980.
We had calculators at our disposal, but we were not allowed to use them!
Why are rules bent to follow technology in the learning process?

This reminds me of the Southpark episode where Tolken got the good science report grade because he had the computer presentation of weather paterns!

Am I making a valid point, or does it just seem that way becasue of the aftergolf boozing?

i think all students deserve to pass.

who cares about any of the details as long as everybody has a fucking good time!


plus the parents paid fair and square so they are emtitled!

If they don't use powerpoint, how should a student giving a presentation format their information? Powerpoint in and of itself is hardly a problem - it is what people are taught (or, more aptly, not taught) about what makes a good presentation.
You can't expect too much out of high school kids though when it comes to presenting information. Being a good public speaker/presenter is something I try and emphasize in my class even though I'm teaching science - I tell the kids they will be presenting throughout their lives in job interviews, etc., and that the more comfortable they get with it the better off they will be. I've had kids come back after graduating and tell me that this focus in my class ended up being one of the most useful things they took from HS to college...

I gave an ironically over the top powerpoint presentation in my art seminar. Being art students, everyone else had been tasteful and restrained in their presentations, but I thought "that's not what powerpoint is about - it's about clashing backgrounds, comic sans, pointless graphs, pie charts, transitions and horrible clip art" and that's what I gave them.

At first it was pretty uncomfortable because they thought it was just genuinely quite bad, then one guy had a little laugh and people started to realise it was a piss-take. By the time I brought in the flying crossroads art I had them all laughing and clapping. Easily the best presentation or talk I've ever done.
