Introduction

Ah, PowerPoint presentations! Some make us laugh, some make us cheer, and some simply make us want to pull our hair out. Without a doubt, creating and delivering a PowerPoint presentation can be an emotional roller coaster. That’s why we’ve put together some carefully selected funny PowerPoint GIFs that capture the essence of both creating and giving a presentation.

When you’ve just made some amazing edits to your slides and PowerPoint says “Not Responding”

We’ve all been there, right?! As much as we try to save our beloved PowerPoint deck every five seconds, sometimes we simply forget. Then, the unspeakable happens: PowerPoint goes brain dead with its “Not Responding” message and freezes all motor functions, leaving you twiddling your thumbs like an idiot and pulling your hair out.

Keep hitting Ctrl+S (the keyboard shortcut to saving your presentation) throughout your work until your fingers get numb!

Your audience when you spend the first 10 minutes troubleshooting technical issues

Seriously, why does every technical problem imaginable happen when you’re about to give the most important presentation of your career? While you should be packing for your presentation like a pro, it seems there’s always something that goes wrong. As a result, your audience patiently (or not so patiently) waits as you nervously try to get your PowerPoint up and running.

When you can’t tell if your PowerPoint slide looks awesome or terrible

We all know the feeling: you hopelessly stare at your computer monitor asking the all-important question, "Does this slide look remotely legit?" PowerPoint anxiety sets in, and before you know it, you’re sitting on the shower floor with cold water running over you, shivering, wondering if anything will ever be normal again.

The best way to know for sure is to simply review your presentation with colleagues and ask for their feedback.

When you’re desperately trying to finish your PowerPoint before your favorite show starts

Don’t we all wish we could have Bruce Almighty’s special powers when creating PowerPoint presentations? It’s amazing how fast we can knock out a presentation when we have an extremely important TV show to watch. PowerPoint productivity always goes up 300% when a new season of Game of Thrones comes out.

When you finally figure out that PowerPoint issue that was driving you crazy

There’s nothing more frustrating than a PowerPoint deck that’s not behaving. When you finally figure out how to solve the problem after hours of searching on Google, the feeling is beyond words. Luckily, for PowerPoint 2016 users, there’s now the “Tell Me” search bar that can help you find tools and functions.

That feeling when you sit through a PowerPoint presentation filled with cheesy images and lengthy bullets

Death by PowerPoint is real! Most people who’ve endured a terrible presentation will have experienced boredom, followed by frustration, then anger because it took up an hour of their lives that they will never get back. Make sure your slides are engaging and to the point to avoid this scenario.

That feeling when the presenter is 20 minutes over the allotted time and still powering through slides

Oh, that joyful feeling when you thought a presentation was coming to an end but the presenter keeps firing away slide after slide! This is when you kindly tell the presenter that you’re late for your next appointment and run out of the room while you still have some sanity left.

When someone asks you a challenging question during your presentation

Did you just ask me a question during my presentation? How dare you! Ideally, nobody wants to be challenged during a presentation, but it’s bound to happen. In these situations, it’s important to keep your cool and refrain from getting defensive. Listen, reflect, and evaluate the comment, then try to move the conversation in the right direction.

Your audience … after you’ve delivered an exciting presentation

When you just nailed your presentation, you’ll know it. The key decision-maker will quickly pour out a glass of the company’s finest scotch and give you a salute. This is when you break out into your happy dance.

You … after you’ve delivered an exciting presentation

You did it! You nailed it! Your audience went wild and tossed flowers on stage as you took a majestic bow. Time to hit up happy hour and bask in your PowerPoint glory.
