How come some adult can't do a proper presentation?

Some of them have months to plan out their subject, but when it's D-day, they stutter, the powerpoint is an utter failure that you can't look at and not be ashamed of, and worst of all, the presentator doesn't even look interested in his own presentation.

And then afterward, when you tell them how bad it was, they go all "uh but I adult, I better, I no need class of presentation, nuh-huh".

    Funny... You just described a whole bunch of kids in school too.

    The youth of today have all the advantages of knowing all of the computer stuff that some adults are just learning. Yet, kids seem too stupid to take advantage of simple stuff like spell checking not to mention getting reliable information.

    Example: Kids use this site trying to get book report info. Whenever I see that, I give bogus answers in hopes that they actually pass it in to their teacher and make total fools of themselves. How stupid and lazy is that?

    Besides... you are not privy to all the presentations that adults do. The vast majority of them are clean, accurate and professional looking. I would dare say that a business professional could make a presentation that would make any high school presentation look like a giant turd.

    PS - You seemed to have trouble just asking this question.
