Remember that time a few weeks later when everyone had to answer for said crazy week? #wishfultweeting
Remember that week when everyone decided to do the thing that made the least amount of sense in every situation?
Lots of lessons to be learned this week, it's really unfortunate that we don't yet have a single clue what they are.

Note: Being decisive leads to really, really good optics. Being right leads to, you know, other stuff.
Is it better to be decisive or to be right?
