Binary format Memes

While normies are busy making Windows executable (.exe) memes, cultured programmers are offering the superior alternative—Elves (ELF files). For the uninitiated, ELF (Executable and Linkable Format) is the standard binary file format for Linux and Unix-like systems, the sophisticated cousin to Windows' crude .exe files. It's basically like offering someone a fine aged whiskey when they're drinking store-brand cola. The pun works on multiple levels—both as a Linux superiority joke and a play on the fantasy creature. Compile that with the "trying times" of cross-platform development, and you've got yourself a kernel of comedy that only segfaults in the best way possible.
