There's probably a really good way to parody TED Talks, but these just aren't up to it. 4 minute clips that set up the most obvious "Mundanely powerpoint (shocking topic)" joke and call it a day.

-1 extra for not putting a muzzle flash on that pistol in post-production for the cost of a half-days work for one artist.
