Timeline for I was pushed to submit a mediocre paper to a conference. To my surprise it was accepted. How to save face?

Make your talk interesting and entertaining, and no-one will really care whether it has much relationship to your paper. | |

(hey, i'm still alive and i still edit WP anonymously. thanks for sticking up for me about a decade ago.) | |
