T-Rex: I have some bad news, everyone. I hope everyone is sitting down, because everyone is going to hear my bad news in like two seconds.
T-Rex: We are almost certainly not living up to our potential!
T-Rex: I know, it sucks!
T-Rex: But here's the thing: even if you're super talented AND super successful, for every thing you do there's almost infinite things you could've done instead. How can you say whatever you're doing is the one thing you'd be best at?
Dromiceiomimus: You're talking career-wise?
T-Rex: Everything-wise! I could be a great politician, but if I'd been a doctor maybe I'd've been even better!
Utahraptor: We can't know what might've been, T-Rex. It's impossible!
T-Rex: Sure!
T-Rex: But we CAN make an educated guess, and with so many choices that could've gone differently, the odds that anyone's doing the ONE thing they'd be best at are vanishingly small.
Utahraptor: I suppose we can only do what makes us happy.
T-Rex: Happiness doesn't equal greatness, but sure, whatever!
T-Rex: It's not all bad, though! All these choices suggest that in an alternate universe somewhere, each of us is TOTALLY KICKING BUTT.
T-Rex: Hence my new emergency fallback epitaph!
T-Rex: "I - I guess he was just here to make the alternate universes look good?"
