TED-talk voice
1) A self-important tone used by a TEDtard to explain something obvious or stupid.
2) A manner of interpersonal communication that sounds too practiced or polished, like public speech.
3) Any way of communicating that betrays the speaker's desperation for validation by an audience of people who self-identify as intellectuals.

1) John's TED-talk voice did little to compensate for his lifelong habit of unoriginal thought.
2) Weekly meetings would be less intolerable if Lundberg would quit using that TED-talk voice he must have learned in B school and instead show some humanity.
3) Martha's incessant TED-talk voice stood out like the one Australian accent in the room, only instead of charming it was obnoxious. Her desperation for peer validation was as pathetic as it was irritating to anyone within earshot.
