    Gonna be honest, this is the post that caused me to learn (via dictionary definition/Wikipedia) that I’ve probably been using the word “debriefing” wrong (I assumed debriefing referred to something like aftercare, but in a military/espionage context),

    Probably not at all what you were expecting to accomplish with this post, but thanks much regardless.

      Am I using it right? I think it means “you telling them what actually happened” after you do the thing, whereas the “briefing” was “them telling you what’s supposed to happen” before you do the thing.
