When was the last time you read out loud to yourself? Do you ever do that?

It was a group presentation before an audience of around 200
The instruction specifically said not to read from the slides
I typed an entire full page of boring chafe in the slide, memorised it and read it aloud while staring forward
Halfway through the page I left and let the rest of the team tfinish the presentation
I still dont remember why I left becuase soon after that day I tripped and split my head on the curb and got a concussion so most of this story is only passed to me by someone else who I distrust

I also read my own prose out loud, causing violent orgasms on the innocent souls inadvertently exposed to its greatness without prior warning, having their so far ignorant minds wistfully seduced by one throwaway sentence of words and pulled in as if by a delicious smell, only to have the limits of their cognition forced to grasp it and their minds bewildered by its beauty.

I read The Bible and poetry out loud. Sometimes really good dialogue I'll read out loud as well.

And of course Shakespeare's plays should be read out loud to add dramatisation
