PowerPoint Party
Optional but contagious. Five slides, five minutes, one gloriously unserious thesis — "Why January Should Be Illegal," "A Ranking of My Friends’ Pets." The room votes for the most persuasive nonsense. Anticipation is the whole event.
What it's for
Give people permission to be ridiculous and deeply earnest about something that does not matter at all.
The guest's job
Prepare five slides on a gloriously unserious thesis and deliver it like you mean it.
The vote
Most persuasive, most absurd, and the one that secretly had a point — all separate categories.
The reveal
The presenter’s final slide: the thesis, defended without irony.
Food & drink spine
Easy, crowd-pleasing finger food — the snacks cannot compete with the content.
Conversation fuel
"How long did you actually spend on this?" (The answer tells you everything.)
How it flops — steer around it
Presentations that are actually just a flex. The joke only lands when everyone commits to the bit equally.
