It's that damn time again for another speech. I thought getting a persuasive speech topic was going to be easy but not exactly. I'm stumped and I need help getting a topic that I can easily talk about for 10 minutes. It would be helpful if y'all can hook me up with a topic where I can show pictures and video clips so that'll take a good amount of time off my talking. I was thinking of doing it on street racing but some fool took it. If you can help me, please nothing with politics involved. I would like to hear great topics you've heard of in your experience in a speech class. Thanks.

I think I did one on euthanasia. There is a lot of good shit on the net, just type it on google. Lots of good stats from Switzerland, since they are one of the only countries in the world where it is legal.

Again, as I stated before in regards to your other speech, the key is picking a topic that you are interested in. Don't pick something that you dont give a fuck about.

Internet music pros and cons -- Educating people about the REAL factors behind the declines in music sales, Itunes selling 100 million songs, etc.

Underground vs commercial music -- persuading people to tap into the local market, and buy cds and go to shows

-- Would both be where i look to start.

Although, last year i did the Palestenian-Israeli conflict...shit was thorough.

Thanks Tadou. I already got my topic, I'm doing it on acid rain. It's more suitable for a college audience especially if it's about the environment.

What a Fucking stupid topic. You're going to have a bitch of a time looking up facts and figures of some lame scientists, when you could be talking to rappers and CEO's first hand.

Much more involved, yes, you fucking kook. What room of college students do you know that wants to sit around and hear someone bitch about acid rain for 10 minutes?

^LOL aye man, trust me acid rain is a good topic. The teacher said it herself that it was a good topic, you should of been there listening to others blabbing about nonsense, shit like animal cruelty and codepedence. I don't really care what the students think, it all matters on what the teacher thinks, and I'm sure I'll get an A, that's all I want. I've done this topic before so I'm quite familiar with it, that's why I chose to do it.

i did a persuasive speech on three strikes law in california

brought up a few points.

some of it is unfair sentencing.. brought up a few examples of fools that just stole some golf clubs out of kmart and got 25 years.. and stole toothbrush. got 25 years...

i brought up the fact that three strikes law makes it dangerous for police.. if a police is trying to arrest a third striker. the third striker will almost do anything to escape the prison sentence including killing the police officer, since its pretty much going to be the rest of his life if he gets taken in..

i forgot the third point i brought up.. but u get the idea..

i think its an excellent topic for persuasive speech.

tadou...what the fuck kind of skewed ass logic do you work from?

"You can talk to rappers and CEOs". Who? Jay-Z? Brotha Lynch? Or are you counting the flood of nobody CEOs of "make bread" industries or whatever generic label the 200 CD selling average Siccness member makes?

Acid rain is a perfectly good topic. There are probably several people who don't give two fucks about internet music. And who said writing a college paper on some topic gives you instant access to the highest level members of that area? If I write an essay on rap can I get a personal phone interview with Snoop Dogg?

And "good luck if you get lost"...what the fuck? Is he more likely to get lost if he writes an Acid Rain report? Since there is a profound amount more data on it...that must mean it's much easier to get lost on. *slaps wrist against chest*. You are one strange motherfucker.

tadou, youre a fucking moron. You live this bi-polared life in which one life, you spend all day rapping but making excuses or promises as to why you havent blown up yet. you have 5 styles and the most complex vocabulary ever, yet no one has ever heard of you.

in the other life, you are studying 5 languages to learn the law and run for public office. youre ridiculous.

more proof of your bi-polarism can be seen how you tout yourself as a big conservative, but then ride NAACP dick. its incredible that the lefties on this board dont hate you more than they do hatch. At least he knows where he stands.

@WHITE DEVIL
Once again, you proove to be a vindictive, ignorant son of a bitch. People like Cool Nutz--who has sold over 11,000 copies of one of his albums--are right at your fingertips. The man is very open. Same with Bullet, who has sold over 5000 albums to date. And i am sure there are other Bay Artists like Cellski that woudn't take too long to get a hold of, and you'd only need to talk to them for a minute or two.

You can keep throwing out names like Jay-Z and Snoop and belittling the logic all you want, but you are only making yourself look like the fucking idiot. OBVIOUSLY< if this is an INDIE SITE, the focus of the speech would be on INDIE ARTISTS.

WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU SUCH A DICKHEAD?

You my friend are smoking certified, 180 proof crack cocaine. Where do I "ride the NAACP dick", friend? And don't act like i dont know exactly which threads you are lumping together. I never praised the NAACP once. I just said it was important to understand who they are and what mission they have.

And i dont make excuses why i haven't "blown up", because i have never TRIED to blow up, you fucking DOLT. If i CARED, i would walk down to the bank on monday with a business plan in hand and get a $5,000 loan, but i could really care less right now.

I'm a conscious minority, in college full time, making money from rapping, staying up to date on my politics, and some of you redneck non-rappin ass not-in-college-ass no-talents can't stand it. And the shit is fuckin sickening.

Cool Nutz and Bullet are out there and open to be talked to. Cool. Funny you mentioned that, since I have no idea who Bullet is, where Cool Nutz's forum is, etc. This would only be known to someone who either 1. spends a major amount of time frequenting these boards or 2. has been here for awhile, such as yourself.

Obviously this is an indie site, but you talk about speaking to artists and CEOs like you actually have a chance to talk to someone people know about. I could spend 12 months posting on NRA message boards to get a chance to speak to Charlton Heston, and that is all neat and good, but I wouldn't blow up on someone in the NRA boards saying they're going to do a speech on acid rain, saying it's a fucking stupid topic when they could talk to Mr. Heston himself.

You call me a dickhead, when you talked shit on a topic some dude chose to report on, for no reason better than you thought yours was cooler. In addition, I'm sure the Republican fear and loathing of anything having to do with "the environment" or any other "stupid liberal cause" had something to do with it. Dude chooses to talk on acid rain instead of internet music, and you call it a "stupid topic" and "wish him luck when he gets lost" - as if there is a meager amount of info out on the subject. I will personally apologize for homeboy in advance for not reading your mind first. You, my friend, are the dickhead.

If you dont know who Cool Nutz is, that is your bad, because his next album is "E-40 Presents Cool Nutz", so the man is far from a ghost. So you can blame yourself for being a sociopath.

NRA is one thing, friend...contacting multi-million dollar actors is one thing, friend.....but CEO's that are actively selling thousands of copies of each album, touring up and down the West coast, and using the internet as a tool to sell records and stay in contact with their fans is another.

If i'm a dickhead, sport, then you are a cock-smoking piece of shit. All you ever do is bitch and complain and lump large paragraphs together, as if someone is just going to give in and throw up the white flag. And its not going to happen, because all you ever do is say ignorant shit and exaggerate. You can't even go one thread without bringing out your favorite buzzword, Republican. You are a sad, sad little man.

Actually tadou, before you started actively posting here the word was usually not high in the recurring vocabulary, but you're such a parrot for the conservative media it's sometimes hard not to call you on it.

And regardless of the grandeur of Cool Nutz' enterprise or the rapper pipe dream that is the Siccness, you can't basically yell at other people because they don't share your starry-eyed fanboy status. It's typical tadou - blow up over something small when someone disagrees with you.

Fuckin A, if you only posted this faster I would have loved to do that topic. I'm done, topic was acid rain, I fucked up. Not because of my topic but because of a jealous friend in the back hatin on me because I was gettin better grades. He was waving fuck you signs and actin an ass makin everyone in the back laugh and that straight up fucked me. I was lost and stutterin cuz I had to maintain eye contact with the audience and this fucker was makin everyone in the back laugh. I couldn't go on, i was 1/2 way done and I snitched his ass out by stoppin my speech and lettin the teacher know. Boy did she let his ass have it. I was heated as fuck by the end of the speech and this fool was gonna get dropped in front of everyone in the classroom. He was scared as fuck because I don't have this name for nothing, he was gonna get his ass beat and he knew it. Lucky for him, we was still in school and he even said he was sorry. The teacher let his ass have it some more after the class was over also, straight up embarrassed his monkey ass.
