Pointing out presentation pitfalls

Do you have any horror stories you relive constantly over the presentation that went haywire?  I am failing superbly at staying within MINDFULness, the latest phenomenon not quite realized.  (remember April 2015 when I predicted on my blog OptioneerJM that adult coloring was going to catch on and why you should too?)

What disastrous presentation can you never forget or let yourself go on? Me? I did some reflection upon creating powerpoints and how this is a skill that I have under developed while critical in my lifelong learning journey, prevailing self-development, knowledge junkie crutch and continual improvement ......

Just like that with the zippy exclamation point (don't overdue it with multiples::.... that screams desperate for attention ....:: so you tend to ignore it or stop reading right there). I found myself at my stepdaughter's wedding, as the "evil stepmother" I told everyone I was. That was to downplay no input and my manners meter on high alert.
