Who's your audience?
If I can turn in a seven page dissertation on slasher film history, then you can do a seven minutes speech on batman
>art of rhetorics not a serious topic
For padding, try coming up with a third option, and also try to fill the speech with as many anecdotes and accounts from people with a personal stake in the topic as you can.
Or, you can just get up to the top of the class and do squats.
I remember I had to do this in 9th grade, so I talked about pie (it was kind of in "fashion" in humour terms). It was a shitty improvisational bit, but it garnered some laughs, a C grade and had me greeted with the word "pie" by other students for the next year.
So what I'm saying is just freeball it.
Audience is college class. Draw your own conclusions on what you think appeals to them.
Sex jokes, you'll get an A.
So the stupid thing is I knew I was going to spend a lot of time worrying about being overdressed for the date, and now it's today, and here I am worrying about it.
Ah, I'll be okay if I drop the jacket. Or switch into the red one she commented on last time--but then I'll have to change into a different shirt. Also, I got the red one for cosplay, so that might be weird.
The really silly part is this wouldn't be happening if she hadn't mentioned she'd be in heels, which, I've never seen her wear anything but this one pair of boots. Which suggests the overall bar is correspondingly raised. But I'm still a little overdressed--I can look nice without wearing a three-piece suit. (I do kind of want to, though. Suits are awesome.)
do the suit
even if you look like a dork, you'll look like a pretty dork if nothing else
I still can't believe I still don't have a speech topic. Is this what you call Writer's Block?
Make it about Team Fortress 2. I know you play a lot of that.
Speak about having a writer's block. Although that duck-goose idea has some appeal.
Can't have a valentine's day on IJBM without this song.
Do it on abortion. If you're feeling adventurous, you can add some controversial stuff like "women should be allowed to abort, and men should be allowed to relinquish ties and forgo child support".
This is merely a speech to inform, I've got another on to persuade which is actually looking easier to talk about.
Ladies and gentlemen, I am a free man.

Congrats, Kraken.
What is Kraken free from?
His conscription is finally over. Now he shall join my army to fight meta-reality zombies.
as it's all meant to be.
^^ His term of military conscription is up. Now he has the terror of the external world to confront.
Oh, looks like Serpent's Tongue is at the printer. Estimated delivery: May or June.
Excellent.
I am so hyped about this game.
I misread this as "What is Kraken's free form?".

Free form poetry? Free form dance?
/pointless
No, as in, like, [adjective] form, like "human form", or "beast form", or "spirit form".
