So kindly fuck off.

That's a "no".

Agree with Mord

Less is more.

Always.

I agree with Lil Zhan because most audience members are only devoting about 50% of their attention to you. I know this because I've been in audiences of speaking engagements numerous times. It's not an excuse to shirk doing well, it just means you don't have to sweat bullets over it because nobody'll crucify you for it. It's a smart move to keep a speech like the wedding one short because people will get bored very quickly. It's a valuable skill to keep your speeches concise.

Did he relay any gems?

As for speeches, it not always WHAT you say, but also HOW you say it.

I just asked my class where Buenos Aires is. One dude said, "Russia". I facepalmed and muttered something about this being a national university. Everyone laughed. Obama was there. And that kid's name was Albert Einstein.
