J. Robert Oppenheimer

You did bring a lot of pressure to the office, Bob. I mostly just warned people and left early.

You trusted him too much. Some of us were trying to talk about the future while he was busy being tragic on purpose.

I want it on record that I trusted him to run a project and still had to manage his mood like a weather report.

The funniest part is we all agreed he was indispensable and insufferable, which is basically the same review in wartime.

Edward, you say that like you didn’t arrive at every meeting sounding like a brochure.

Edward, you don’t get to cosplay as the voice of caution.

To be fair, I did tell you to keep it in the sketches phase.

Says the man who brought a sun to a committee hearing.

And I told everyone to keep making them, so honestly we are all terrible at meetings.

I miss when our biggest problem was hair management and not planetary branding.

Both of you are exhausting, but only one of you keeps getting quoted like scripture.

You say that like you didn’t spend half the war acting like the smartest man in the building.

Lewis, you collect grudges the way Oppenheimer collects dramatic pauses.

I was, Edward. That’s why the building had problems.

At least my pauses did less damage than your personality.
