Thanks a million!

i know Im asking the wrong place but does anyone know of a tool to log back into an instagram account?? I was stupid forgot the account password. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me.

@@daithinihill This is interesting talk. I am 1/4 Irish. My only comment is that it feels like much of your comedy is aimed at disparaging the US (not this talk.) Good luck. I wish you much success, but less butt of jokes. PS Ireland looks beautiful in photos.

Facts

@@Applecompuser I'm pretty sure that's the point. He makes fun of us and that allows us to laugh at him. It's not making us the butt of the joke it's misdirection

​@@Applecompuser Everyone laughs until the joke is on them. He has tons of self deprecating jokes that people love but you can't handle it when the spot light is on you? It's extremely hard to be friends with someone who can't take a joke. None of it is mean spirited. Fragile snowflakes, we have become.

Me too! And I was even TAKING NOTES! Even though I'm a senior citizen who does nothing and will never be making a presentation anywhere anytime! But I loved it!

Anyone who gets you to think they are a genius at public speaking while public speaking is obviously a proven genius, right? But there is also a thing called the eye of the beholder. I notice you started out listing your credentials in your comment, before stating your opinion, so you might just have little bit of a self-esteem issue. Like your opinion wouldn´t be perfectly fine and interesting without the credentials... I, as the benevolent dictator of a small nation, that shall remain nameless for privacy reasons, hope you see how pointless self-proclaimed credentials can be in establishing trust or authority... I like your enthusiasm for the speaker and agree with it, but fear of public speaking and revering teachers might be symptoms of a low opinion of yourself, not the cause. I might be totally wrong, just a hack with nothing better to do at this particular moment.. In case you were wondering why it is there: The first statement I made was a non-sequitur (it was meant as a "reductio ad absurdum", initially, but I realised that might not be clear after re-reading).. I picked on your first statement, so it is only fair to pick on my own...a non-sequitur is an example of a phallacy. it means: "it doesn´t follow...". It´s a nifty little trick to convince people of something by making sentences that seem to make sense, because of their structure, but really don´t. logically.. If you think it through... 1) Just because someone is good at public speaking, doesn´t mean he is a genius, not even at public speaking, That just doesn´t follow from the observation.. First of, it´s opinion based... but even if he got an hour long standing ovation and we would accept that to mean he was subjectively good.... He might just be having a really good day... He might be trying to bomb and failing miserably.. We just don´t know.. It doesn´t follow. 2) And "genius" kind of suggests "good at everything". Even granted he might be a "genius" at speaking, also doesn´t mean that he is a genius didacticly. Even if he turned out to be a bona fide genius, huomo univeralis, polymath, modern day Leonardo, he might not be able (or willing) to teach you anything. There is a lot of that going on in self-help land and seminars etc.. It can cost you a lot of money, before you figure out that that´s the basis of that particular economical niche. It´s like saying anyone good at public speaking is obviously a great gardener.. Only then, it´s a bit more obvious that it doesn´t follow. That one would need a bit more wangling to sell the self help books. We do it in politics too: anyone with good tie is presumably a good leader. People are crazy that way.. Then I notice you said: "His tips on speaking could help anyone who wants to give a presentation" this is just a statement that is always true, because it always could... but it attempts to suggest something. Which to me says: You bought into it, so you want to convince people. Means you are uncertain.. That´s what evangelism is about, strength in numbers. Again.. not the strongest statement sefl-confidence wise. Usually this happens subconsciously. Evangelists don´t think they have a low opinion of themselves, because they are camouflaging it sooo well.. I can´t decide if I am being mean or practicing tough love, but this "could" really help you :) You spoke publicly and got heckled. Not the worst thing, that could happen. It says more about me, that you triggered me somehow, than it says about you, probably.. No if I would want to be mean I would have emphasized the YOU in the first statement.

@@Ludifant Out of respect (misplaced?) for the effort and time you took to respond to my little comment and the fun I had reading it, I will make some brief comments. Brief, because you opened the road to numerous tangents, which I cannot give a proper response in the time I have presently. I don’t know if I triggered you because I remind you of a past relationship that left you without consideration or if you think you may see, in me, the one you have always imagined and hoped for. In any event, you made the effort, so… First, I have been in front of many rooms, and I have never been heckled. Perhaps the audience was not sufficiently large or hostile. I find public speaking a pure pleasure and have taken so many workshops (which you referenced) on the topic so I could learn how to become a better speaker. As for the remarks on Dave Nihill, I find his speaking engaging, and I thought the idea of doing stand-up to improve was genius. (I watch Stand Up regularly…can you guess who my favorites are?) I provided a list of my workshops to create a context of experience in which I was viewing Dave Nihill’s material, i.e., not in a vacuum (as it seems you may have preferred.) Perhaps my urge, or habit, to provide context or references is driven by my lengthy time in academia; one never really recovers. Accordingly, those are my comments at this time. “The ball is in your court,” as they say. 😎

As a bilingual person who often hears that she 'hasn't lost her accent' on meeting inquisitive strangers, I love your comment and will use the concluding part of it in future encounters..
