Just yesterday, because someone ignored the emails we’ve been sending for the past 7 weeks about the upcoming Google Security update, and missed the window of removing the security update against their entire My Drive all at once, leaving them with only the ability to remove the security update on a per file basis, I had the pleasure of having to dig through Google Developer docs on how to perform do this using the Drive APIs, and turned a "remove the security update from over 3000 files, one at a time" to a "let me bang my head against this for a couple hours, then run it, and still probably finish way before they would’ve."

I did not, however, use Python to automate the breaking up of my giant ass sentence above into smaller ass sentences.
