What should the content of the short?

Usually, life is pretty observable. YOu have a good understanding of where you are, what you're doing and you're able to interact with your environment.

Sometimes, if you're me, you drank too much. You wake up with no memory, messages like "where did you go" or "haha that was wild" and you somehow scraped your knee. YOu spend the rest of the day hesitatingly putting together the night before.

Don't debug systems like a hungover maniac. Instrument them so you can just see what happened.
