1. what you would normally do
2. you consider “what would X do?” (you choose X)
3. you say what you would do instead

I was riding my bike and I came onto a body of water. I was going to turn back, but then I thought, “What would Pee-Wee Herman do?” I grabbed a vine and swung across the water, making Tarzan sounds, with my bike between my legs.
