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.
Debriefing is what happens when you win the final round of a strip poker game.
