Today is the Indian independence day. A few years ago, when I was still in school, I was forced to give a speech for the independence day celebrations. I used to be a national debating champion, etc. so my school decided I WILL HAVE TO be the one to give it. It was a holiday, and instead of sleeping peacefully I had to go to the bloody school for a bullshit speech.
Guess what? If someone spent years developing oratory skills, they know exactly how to fuck it up too. Pronunciation, diction, clarity, pacing? For 20 mins the most garbled nonsense came out of my mouth. You wanted me to speak. I spoke. Never said you would enjoy it.
Anyway, they never forced me to do anything again.
