10. The wonderful presentational skills of Jimmy from Ontario showing us a version of triumph that "I've been practicing for about 5 minutes since I pirated the DVD, so I think I've got it 'down' now. By the way I'll post a tutorial vid in half and hour so EVERYONE can be as good as me!!"

Don't you mean, a spotty teenager typing "wow, man, u ave wikid skillz!" on someone's YouTube video from the darkened secrecy of their own bedroom...?!

12. A new torn and restored card that needs 2 hours of prep involving splitting certain parts of the card, coating them in vulcanized rubber, putting a false signature on 3/4 of the back and ruining five decks.

The trick will then take you an awkward 2 minutes to perform and will take one gimmick per performance.

It's not magic! It's juggling!
I, however, am a juggler, so it's OK for me to do it.

17. People showing how knowledgeable and experienced they are in magic by constantly using the cringeworthy phrases 'the real work' and 'bit of business'.
