Today I gave my talk at WordCamp Minneapolis! My topic was about the right way and the wrong way to ask for help with your WordPress problems. However, I tried to inject a bit of humor into my slides…

I even got the hearty laugh I was looking for with the GI Joe slide. YO JOE!
It’s great talking to “my people” – the dumb nerdy jokes I say are understood and appreciated! I also was pretty proud with myself for not saying “fuck” anytime during my presentation. I think “batshit crazy” and “asshole” were the worst offenders, language-wise. #winning
Having a great time meeting new people and seeing old friends today. Looking forward to the afterparty at WestWerk tonight too.
WordCamps are amazing!!
Can we see the other slides? 🙂
They’re linked to on my Speaking page! 🙂
Replying to blog post subjects where appropriate — figures. I miss WordCamp in 2014 when there’s prime opportunity to heckle. (I kid, I kid.)
I really need to make it to a WordCamp someday in the near future. Thanks for posting about your talk.
