• A vertical image with colors ranging from blue at the top to golden in the middle and red at the bottom. At the top, a bright blue star is illuminating surrounding clouds of gas, making the top third of the image appear blue. Below the bright star, a couple dozen fainter stars shine yellow. One of them has a fuzzy, golden arc to its left. At the center of the image, a brighter yellow star illuminates the surrounding gas. It is partially obscured by dark streaks and clouds of dust, making it resemble the moon on a cloudy evening. The bottom of the image is noticeably darker than the rest, with the exception of a dramatic splash of red almost like a bug splat on a windshield. A handful of faint, red stars also appear there.

Me: [in line at the programmer's bureau looking at assignment] Don't you have some other work? I'd rather not program in Javascript.

Me: I really wouldn't say I'm a a kid anym...

Bureaucrat: Suck it up! Get with the program! Javascript is everywhere, like bacteria. If you're alive and breathing, you can't avoid it especially if you're a programmer. Here, learn these frameworks. Come back next week for the new ones.

Me: *sigh* ... [shuffles off]

Bureaucrat: Next!
