Man, can you imagine, the meaningless platitudes that are normally said at these ceremonies, but it's not even a human speaker, but rather an overengineered loudspeaker.
Meaningless? I've listened to some excellent graduation speaches. Chris Hedges comes to mind
Yeah, I think, we'll have to agree to disagree on that one. I know, I'm on the extreme side with never having liked such a ceremony. I think, it's because I simply stop feeling represented with the kind of generic speech you get when addressing more than a dozen people, because I guess, I'm just too special of a snowflake...
