      That's a weird combo of US/UK spelling!
      TumorHumor or TumourHumour I could understand, but TumorHumour?
      I think you need to take a break from the intarwebz Simon, it's mangling your native (correct) spelling ;-)
      To totally add to the confusion, being a Swede, Simone would have a Swedish Tumour, which is spelt Tumör. So TumörHumör (No, not making this up!).
      That's some pretty good multilinqual word play she's got going on there!
      Get well soon Simone, the world needs more terrible puns!

      Tony James when I was in college, I was fabulous at procrastibaking, which is similar, because it’s baking first and then you get the added distraction of cleaning up afterwards. Never mind the fact I had a newborn too, that helps.

    You are so inspiring! As an young woman trying to go into a stem field, your passion, humor, and innovation encourage me to pursue my passion but remind me not to take setbacks or any one project too seriously. I tend to suffer from anxiety and perfectionism so this is a lesson that is really important for me to take in. Thank you so much for being your awesome quirky self and sharing it with us! I hope your surgery goes well. You will be in my thoughts that day.

  • @amozlim4753

    The TED talk was exactly what I needed at this point of my life! I have been feeling so down and useless lately, there are so many goals that I want to achieve and I never really end up spending more than a few hours on them before giving up BECAUSE of performance anxiety. I am definitely going to take your advice and plan for success by planning to succeed in creating something that fails!
    Thank you for the TED talk and All the best for the surgery! I look forward to seeing more from you! The world, but mostly me, definitely needs it!

    When they put you under anesthesia, you should sing "Daisy" in voices that keep changing pitch. Then do it again when they wake you up.
    The young doctors will just think you're weird, but the older ones will laugh themselves into comas. Also, just before you go into surgery, say "What do you think you're doing, Dave?" in a strangely flat voice.
    Or maybe not.
    Best wishes and prayers for a successful surgery that leaves all your important parts intact.

    Be strong, be yourself on surgery day. Fall asleep thinking of the most awesome happy place.
    The great meds will keep you in your happy place until it's over.
    My son had a brain tumor which was considered inoperable but a fine surgeon disagreed
    and so glad he was a champion much like yourself. The world is a better place with people
    like you! Safe journey....until you're back on UA-cam!

    Prayers, good thoughts, and all the best to you. I started watching UA-cam videos when I was recovering from a motorcycle accident. Engineering note, never whether on purpose, or accident shift from third to first, and let the clutch out at 40 mph. Bad things happen. Anyway I’ve come to love, and appreciate the talent, and energy many put into their videos. You’ve now become my favorite. It is your genuineness, and honesty that make you the star you are. I’ll be following your progress.

      Are you trying to say she pronounced Simone's name incorrectly? It is not pronounced how it looks. Simone has talked about that in her videos. They got it right, or close to it.

    Hey, Simone. I have massive performance anxiety issues. That was legit the best TED talk I've ever seen. I wish I could leave a comment that adequately describes it.
    Just... thank you so much. I really hope the surgery goes well. You're wonderful. Thanks.

    Great video. I think that shirt turned out great. I wish you the best. Surgeons are really great people. They do know what they are doing. The weirdest thing is you don't know anything about it. I woke up after 7.5 hours of surgery and was happy as being out on a beautiful spring day as I was alive. The anesthesiology keeps you under for the precise amount of time. You will appreciate them when you see the bill. Unfortunately these stock exchanged owned hospitals take 25% of the cut of everything. Dell hospital here in Austin has a better ratio. I hope your surgery goes as well as mine did. 14 months later I am just about done with the chemo and all of its little side effects. Good luck and get things in order and you will have a great appreciation of what is important in life. I would like to see your videos after. The healing process is pretty fast for getting you back to being alive but there are many things that you think about each day for months. Please document those for yourself and have them when you feel you can share them. I have alot of footage I took that I only showed to 1 or 2 people but intend to help others with it that are facing the big black abyss or so they worry about. REMEMBER Attitude is 50% of the healing process!

    I don't normally comment on videos, but after watching that TED talk, as an engineer who admires the work of science communicators, what a great talk! 🙌 Both the script, and the delivery. Excellent. With the proper dose of "simoney-ness" off-scripting slipped in. 👌 Perfectly encompassed everything about Simone in 11 minutes.
