The sole goal of this presentation is to demonstrate you how important and significant this text is. All statistical tests and empirical hypothesizing support the greatness of minds of anyone whose attention was fixed on this text for more than fifteen seconds straight.

I have chosen this size not to undermine is equal importance, but underline how unimportant a text may look if it is small and difficult to read from the first row of seats. I deliberately used polysyllable words and substantially heavier grammatical constructions than necessary so that you could feel with all its upcoming inevitability that a text written in so long expressions and without any slightest hint of punctuation, to say nothing about colloquial construction interjected into the main text is quite difficult to perceive even for the original author of the text with no regard to (im)possible case of rampant plagiarizing.
