A Linux House
Being a Linux user is sort of like living in a house inhabited by a large family of carpenters and architects. Every morning when you wake up, the house is a little different. Maybe there is a new turret, or some walls have moved. Or perhaps someone has temporarily removed the floor under your bed.

UNIX
“UNIX is basically a simple operating system, but you have to be a genius to understand the simplicity” — Dennis Ritchie

Linux Friendly
Linux is user friendly. Its just picky about who its friends are.

Microsoft
Microsoft: “You’ve got questions. We’ve got dancing paperclips.”

Failure
Failure is not an option — it comes bundled with Windows.

As a United States veteran, I find a couple things about Linux funny.
First off, I would never have dared to boot a Kernel.
But I have seen a Kernel panic (pun intended).
Then when shutting down, it's not enough to terminate all processes, they must then also be killed!

When I first downloaded Damn Small Linux a friend would call up and ask "What are you doing this evening?"
"I'm just playing with Damn Small."

But my favorite error is:
Too few arguments
I wish I heard that more often!

Thanks all. I needed a good ROFL about now.
