Sorry to hear we'll be missing out on the talk — are you sure it is
incompatible with the guidelines?
The main reason why my talk violates the current policy is that it mocks
and somewhat ridiculizes the very rich aristocratic people, including
their appearance and the affectionated manners usually associated to
them [1].
On some other slides I also make fun of people begging for money in
internet... of the mediagoblin mascot... and probably other things I
can't recollect right now.
All that combined with my foul mouth... yes, I am sure the policy would
be compromised :(
[1] For example: our mascot (Uncle Gnubags) is defined as a "despicable
high-class old fashioned snob". Pic attached.
