APAD: the only consensus is there's no consensus

"the only consensus is there's no consensus" - Cartoonist Chris Wildt

What is consensus? I searched merriam-webster.com this morning and found these:
1-a: general agreement: Unanimity; 1-b: the judgment arrived at by most of those concerned;  2. group solidarity in sentiment and belief

But how about in real life (office politics, tug-of-war, choir, jury decision, etc)? I searched and found three interesting cartoons (== 3000 words):

1.

2.

3.

For some reason, I tend to agree with Chris Wildt: "the only consensus is there's no consensus" .

Note the reason of today's APAD is self-punishment for my mistake done under one WXC blog post (See comments under the two blog posts below):

where I misinterpret word "共识" (== consensus) as "common sense" (==常识), and even gave our APAD link to explain it .

It is no fun to make mistake in public, but it's the best to admit it than to hide it, as "not admitting a mistake is a bigger mistake."- Robert Half

More importantly: I learned and gained knowledge by doing so.  A wonderful experience, isn't it?

Wish you all a happy Friday!
