    Delivery is everything. This is a great idea, but if the person was too socially awkward to nail the timing or tone, I could easily see how this idea could flop.

      I don’t know, the mere fact that each action was followed by a slide detailing that previous action should be more than enough to show effort. Even if it wasn’t received as funny, it is still provable as an attempt.

      I feel if he is brought to explain himself, it explains itself. It is just down to whether anyone can identify actual creativity in his school. Odds aren’t in his favor.

        The point is to get more comfortable talking in front of a crowd, and learning to present your ideas.

        This accomplishes none of that.

          Definitely not when met with this sort of reaction. It easily could have.

          I dunno, this kind of meta commentary could easily accomplish both, if executed well. Shows that you’re thinking of things in terms of overall social norms and trends, and figuring out how to present that idea in front of a crowd in an approachable way. I still think that the delivery is the most important aspect of this idea, though, as a piece of comedic satire.
