Thread: started my first scuttle

Public speaking classes are ridiculous. Im in a specialized section for engineers. I lose about 1/3 points on every speech for being too technical. I'm a computer engineer, speaking about computer engineering. Not exactly something that readily "dumbs down". I'm the only computer engineer in the class, there's also a computer science major. The prof asks people to raise their hands if they understood everything in my speeches... The computer science major raises her hand. I'm like, well yes. I won't have to explain the design of computer engineering solutions to people who have no knowledge of computers. It's funny. All the A's are ArchE's who's speech is something along the lines of this... "Bridges are falling down. We should maintain them better. My solution is to maintain them better."

I facepalm every time I think about the amount of research and work I put into my speeches to get a C for being too technical.


Cool looking scuttle. Now make me one!
