I Don't Do Windows: The Linux User's Mantra

The perfect fake etymology doesn't exi--

Whoever created this brilliant linguistic bamboozle deserves a promotion. No, Linux isn't actually Latin for "I don't do windows," but the fake definition perfectly captures the spirit of the Linux vs Windows rivalry. Linux users have been smugly avoiding Microsoft's OS for decades while insisting their terminal commands are actually more intuitive than clicking buttons. The definition even throws shade by implying Windows just pretends things work while Linux shows you the brutal, unfiltered reality. As someone who's stared at kernel panic screens at 2AM, I can confirm Linux definitely shows you what's "really happening" whether you wanted to know or not.

Must Have Long Hair For CLI

The eternal battle between GUI lovers and command-line purists rages on! The security team is freaking out about GitHub Desktop while the Linux admin (sporting that glorious CLI-worthy mane) is having none of it. It's like bringing a mouse to a keyboard fight. Real devs type commands with their eyes closed while drinking coffee with their third hand. The GUI crowd might as well be using Fisher-Price "My First Computer" while the command-line warriors judge silently from their black terminal screens. The hair length is directly proportional to terminal proficiency. That's just science.
