From an alternate universe:

I apologize for my erratic behavior which has tarnished our brand and created unnecessary turmoil within our organization. Regrettably, we will need to implement a 16% reduction in headcount to address the financial challenges we now face. I have decided to step aside and hand over control to my deputy, who I believe will provide the steady leadership needed to rebuild trust and restore our company's vision.

You can trust me, facile3232, instead. I will improve upon all things the leader of automattic.com failed to improve upon.

This messaging is compelling. Are you also perchance against all bad things, and in favor of all good things?

You can't just say "perchance."
