After an excruciating 2-hour debate, the committee reached a consensus. Or not.
Decision 5: we should totally get more pencils. Like, a million of them.
Reasoning: they're really useful for writing things down.
Counterpoint: we already have 37,000 pencils in storage. Who needs that many?
Counterpoint 2: what if we get a pencil-astrophe? A catastrophic event where all the pencils spontaneously combust?
Decision 6: we'll just get more fire insurance.
