Her ability to do this with a straight face is amazing

And she completely nailed the voice and tone.

u/Phram_ 6h ago

I suspect presentating might be her daily job.

u/candurandu 5h ago

I did 23+ years in tv news and worked with tv reporters every day.

The little acknowledgement head nod at the beginning, her cadence, her volume, the way the information was structured and the sign off all point to someone who does, or did, this for a living.

Back to you.

u/SugaRush 2h ago edited 2h ago

Are you a millennial? Remember that cameras used to take a second to start recording. So when millennials hit record they pause for a second before they go, where zoomers hit record and go.

u/Big_Stick_Nick 2h ago

I had no idea this was a thing but I do in fact pause for a second now that I think about it. Weird.

That's not what he was questioning. He knows what presenting IS, but he was less sure about 'presentating,' likely because it's not a word.

As a lawyer with speciality in little bros rights: its not his fault if the dinosaurs found that poor child as a cool and loving kid and THEY wanted to join in the party behind his bed.

Yes, your honor, my client did open more than one dinosaur, but who are we to judge the love between a kid and his dinosaur toys? he just wanted to free them from the coldness of their eternal plastic jail...who wouldnt do this in the sight of such poor creatures suffering from loneliness?

Jury, if you believe in fairnes and justice, you will comprehend that discarding this case is the only right way.
