Traceroute Memes

Ah, nothing says "I understand computers" like running rm -rf on localhost. For the uninitiated, 127.0.0.1 is your own machine's IP address. So our protagonist here is essentially running a dangerous delete command on his own system while pretending it's some kind of virus scan. The rm -rf command is the digital equivalent of pouring gasoline on your house and lighting a match. The "-rf" flags make it recursive and force-delete without asking questions. Basically the nuclear option of file deletion. Someone should probably tell him that running traceroute on an imaginary virus is like trying to find your car keys by following a rainbow. But hey, at least his system is now "woke-free." Just like his hard drive is now "files-free."
