Lesson from High School: Don't be an Individual

One of the funniest speeches I've ever heard. From YouTube: "A speech given at the Paideia Senior Dinner a few days before graduation."

Camera work is a bit irritating, but he is quite funny.

Funny line that stuck out for me and a nice turn of phrase:
"I am a walking awkward pause."

Excellent writer. He's got a real future if he applies it and follows through. I'm already envious.

I for one will follow his advise and not live life. Who needs to live life when you can come home from work and fall into the deep dark black hole that is the internet?
