The Grug Brained Developer (2022)

> given choice between complexity or one on one against t-rex, grug take t-rex: at least grug see t-rex

I think about this line at least once a week

grug obviously never took on invisible t-rex

this grug keeps one on one invisible t-rex, grug cursed

"...even as he fell, Leyster realized that he was still carrying the shovel. In his confusion, he’d forgotten to drop the thing. So, desperately, he swung it around with all his strength at the juvenile’s legs.

Tyrannosaurs were built for speed. Their leg bones were hollow, like a bird’s. If he could break a femur …

The shovel connected, but not solidly. It hit without breaking anything. But, still, it got tangled up in those powerful legs. With enormous force, it was wrenched out of his hands. Leyster was sent tumbling on the ground.

Somebody was screaming. Dazed, Leyster raised himself up on his arms to see Patrick, hysterically slamming the juvenile, over and over, with the butt of the shotgun. He didn’t seem to be having much effect. Scarface was clumsily trying to struggle to its feet. It seemed not so much angry as bewildered by what was happening to it.

Then, out of nowhere, Tamara was standing in front of the monster. She looked like a warrior goddess, all rage and purpose. Her spear was raised up high above Scarface, gripped tightly in both hands. Her knuckles were white.

With all her strength, she drove the spear down through the center of the tyrannosaur’s face. It spasmed, and died. Suddenly everything was very still."

I know this is fiction because everyone is focused on the same problem.

I felt like my third eye has been opened after reading that. Truly inspiring.
