Brainstorm For Me

deletedabout 9 years

Persuasive speech ideas. It has to be something you think I actually believe in. My first idea is the Citizens United ruling and the implications of such on democracy. Help, please.

i felt bad because we shared this moment together, ASAP Rocky and I, and i didn't even go to the concert. i just was walking back to my apartment and chatting up a modestly cute babe that was working the show. It was then when the hood pope and I locked eyes and he waved casually to me. i've never forgotten it.

babies because they're some stress on people who are 'aware'


Haha, for a second here I thought you were talking about babies who suffer from such debilitating disabilities that they'll never approach the intellect of a 10-year-old and whose lives will cost countless dollars to maintain that could instead curing tons of people of malaria. Well, that's just what I thought you were going to say.


People who breed even tho they know their child has a high chance of having one of these things are terrible people.


I agree.

"golf cart induced injuries" is probably the whitest way to hurt yourself.


Only if it was at a Taylor Swift concert.


ugh

back in school ASAP Rocky rode out on a golf cart into the crowd at the springfest and waved to me. It was like seeing the pope.

I'd probably look pretentious though


if you didn't want to look pretentious you wouldn't be asking on this forum


Nah, I don't want to look pretentious. I'm probably going with Citizens United because I care about that. I just need a pretty list of ideas to bring in
