a while ago i was in a meeting and someone asked a product guy about the timetable for some upcoming product and he said, and this is a direct quote because it was so amazing that i wrote it down

quote:

we've liased with stakeholders and feel that the proposed timeline is not happenable

and i've been trying to make happenable a thing ever since then
