be on stage in time
or little before

how to
mess up
giving a talk?

don't introduce yourself and ignore the vibe

don't have your topic
in mind or at notes

don't give a fuck about your audience

forget
your slides 

maybe don't use

the super awesome

slide tool

don't use high contrast
for the text

read from

your slides

and put too much content on one slide, because the audience will listen to you while reading the content and don't get bored.

dont' have the laptop battery charged

don't use purresome
cat pictures or memes

overwhelm the audience with details

don't give a fuck
about their level

of knowledge

ignore
questions

give a talk

and mess

it up!

thanks

How to mess up talking on a stage

There are already a lot of great articles and talks about how to give a talk or to collect topics for a talk. With this one, I'll not raise the number of those but want to demonstrate what happens if things go/done wrong. While it is more or less a fun talk, I'll give some very useful hints on how to prepare yourself for a talk and to give a talk.
