My boss thinks I fucked up today.
I had to give a presentation to senior staff concerning risk mitigation for a serious legal problem we have.

I have researched the issue for weeks, and I put together a 90 page presentation.

Well *apparently* when I got up to the podium to start the presentation, I *supposedly* said "Sorry, I got a fucking hellish buzz on". Then, *supposedly*, I fell asleep with my eyes opened.
