Ha. No. High school and Collegiate debate. Both at the national competition level. Won state titles several times. I also did public speaking, and original interp. (a form of acting).

Good times. Learned much about focusing on the argument, and not on the person, honestly the first thing I would teach anyone doing debate (in person, professionally, or in a forum).
