Randy Pausch Last Lecture: Achieving Your Childhood Dreams

i hope when you die, people talk about how shitty your life was. how disrespectful to post this on his final video.

Actually, he has raised funds and awareness for
pancreatic cancer.. Which could be the start of a chain reaction for research for cancer...

here's a headfake: your a self absorbed @ss Randy Pausch. If he was actually great, which maybe he was, others would sing his praises. It wouldn't have to come from his own powerpoint. How transparent.

No he was exploiting his illness for a fameseeking and self promotion. when he suspects the audience is catching on to what is basically bragging he quickly takes a soft tone and tries to pull a "message" out of his $@s. It's really pretty disgusting. He even exploits his children at one point.

Really, really weak. A really UNremarkable life making computer games and visiting Disney World.

I know hundreds of people with more to say than him. If he said this stuff on a street corner, people would laugh at him.

You're right. Isn't it sad that most commenters ate up this weak, self-indulgent junk?

This whole thing was for the benefit of everyone else. He wanted to be an inspiration to others.

A little self absorbed don't you think?--to literally put on a show for your own benefit to talk about yourself and all of your own accomplishments? It's a horrible example of self indulgence. Dying doesn't give you an excuse for this kind of behavior. Sorry

i will totally agree with you i read the book frist but was planning on watching this lecture there both amazing but the book gives more info
