Funny Unix/Linux Commands

Some of these seem to be platform-specific, but here’s a funny look at some odd results you can get out of your shell: [link]
% cat “food in cans”
cat: can’t open food in cans
% nice man woman
No manual entry for woman.
% “How would you rate Quayle’s incompetence?
Unmatched “.
% Unmatched “.
Unmatched “.
% [Where is Jimmy Hoffa?
Missing ].

You forgot:
:~$ mount a_hot_chick
mount: can’t find a_hot_chick in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
I think it’s looking in the wrong place… And what’s all this stabby stuff about?
fsck /a_hot_chick
fsck 1.35 (28-Feb-2004)
e2fsck 1.35 (28-Feb-2004)
/sbin/e2fsck: No such file or directory while trying to open /a_hot_chick
What is with this whole stabbing and cutting business? I just wanna get on da love!
