Not quite the usual media post, but I performed a self introduction speech in my Communications 100 class at Northern Illinois University, using Furries are my topic. About 8 of the 20 students in my class mentioned having heard of furries before, 2 of which notably winced when I said the word.
The speech was met with many positive remarks, including the teacher saying that in her 15 years of teaching, she was glad to finally hear a topic she had never heard before.
Each student was required to paraphrase a speech back to a speaker. The student who was forced to kindly and politely review my speech later came up to me and told me that he was a *channer and had disgraced his honor as Anonymous by reviewing my speech.
My final grade was 87/90
