I understand where these people are coming from but I don't think anyone here would take them seriously. A lot of power points are very boring especially those done for some presentations or meetings. Those where people just read exactly what is written there I think are the most boring, especially when they do not even add images for people to look at and at least get entertained with something. The one that got me more curious is the animal party. How are the animals going to vote or choose what they want when it comes to politics? Just depending on what side they move to or something? Or the person that gives him the best food? This just makes no sense.
