We want everyone to be able to craft an interesting and entertaining talk that enthralls the audience, without missing the mark on the intended impact of any jokes.
Please give this a read if you intend on using memes, jokes or satire in your proposals to #pyconau

I really love this reframing! Mind if I weave it into our upcoming workshops for #pyconau CFP? I think it’s a really kind-to-yourself way of approaching it and I hope new and first time submitters aren’t put off by a rejection!
