'grep -e' and 'egrep' all you to use Extended Regular Expressions
(ERE) which are fancier and let you trade consuming more brain memory
for typing less characters. Compare the length of the above examples
and then use said knowledge for picking up a barrista at the local
coffee shop.

Seriously though, watching yourself use more and more shortcuts makes
you feel better about yourself, gives you more job security, and
prevents carpal tunnel.
