I never thought such a thing could exist, but here’s a Ted Talk that is worthless

It’s given by a woman with a Ph.D. in history who complains that she can’t find a husband who is taller than herself.

Since no one has mentioned it, she’s 5’ 10”. So she could wear heels and still be shorter than me. But I don’t think she’s my type. In fact, I know she’s not my type.

That was sad. I’m sorry she is so wrong about so many things. She has made herself almost completely unattractive. (The “Likes bad TV” in her first list earns her the “almost.”)

All I know about Ted talks is that a Marxist I know raved about them.

Ted who?

I’ve listened to interviews at Uncommon Knowledge:

Many have been very good.

I, I, I, I, Me, Me, Me, I, Myself, Mine, I, I,....

Whiiiiiiiinnnnneee. Me, Me, Me,....

Hard to understand why she’s single still. Maybe she needs to worship herself a bit more.

Jeez, you hit the nail on the head. Roseanne with baby rabies, narcissism and no self-awareness.

I dated a woman who was five inches taller and 14 years younger than me. It’s not really a problem.

Watch this one - definitely worth the time and the Snowflakes out there could learn a thing or two about oppression.

This one with Tommy Emmanuel is worth every minute, and more...

Yes, thanks so much for that. Good beyond words. Thank you!

Oh, I thought it was the body positivity thing by the 350-lb woman.

She lacks grace and charm, doesn't have a clue about dressing well, doing her hair, standing up straight, and modulating her voice. What could go wrong?

A worthless TED talk?

Imagine that!

Glad someone lampooned that! My favorite TedTalk is still James Randi’s. Brought a little vaudevillian touch to it.

TED talks used to be interesting but recently they have become just as politicized as everything else.

For a while I got banned from certain threads there because I challenged their left-wing views.

Then, last year, it turned into just another jangling liberal monkey-house of screeching and merde-throwing. Ruined. Waste of time.

For a while I communicated with a SJW type on a Quora thread about liberal vs. conservative media. It was like talking to Hannibal Lecter.

Starts out the talk withing the first few sentences spewing SJW crap and then goes on to say she is “charming and fun”....

Yeah, that is how she thinks of herself.... such a special little snow flakey that spends 11 minutes whining and bitching...

Very fun and charming indeed.

I watched 5 seconds of her talking. I know why she's not married.
