👴 Grug discovers design, and it's a wonder he's not clubbing his monitor in frustration. Apparently, "less is more," unless you're in #Figma hell with ten thousand buttons that do the same thing. 😂 Meanwhile, Grug learns that design manuals are for 'complex systems,' also known as "I-don't-know-what-I'm-doing" guides. 🧠

🎨🤖 Apparently, humans can’t fathom the concept of hex codes without a verbose API to hold their hand and translate it into a "human-readable" color name. Because who wouldn't want their color palette dictated by a tool that suggests "Salmon Pink" when you really just wanted #fa8072? 🥴
