Death Penalty Not on My Behalf Death Penalty: Not on My Behalf
Terry Kimura

"They're going to kill him because he killed somebody, so when they kill him, who do we get to kill?" (Amnesty International)

One day, I returned home to my dorm room in Maine to find the light blinking on my answering machine. It was a frantic message from my parents, who were in Japan, telling me they had received a call from the Police Department in Denver, Colorado, telling them that my brother had been murdered. I quickly called my parents and noted down the contact number they had received. I then called the Denver Police Department.

The murderer had already been caught. He was a homeless
Happiness He sat alone on the couch in his living room, staring at some stupid show on TV with actors who barely deserve the title, a bottle of beer left forgotten on the table, long turned lukewarm with the heat from the fan in the side of the laptop he had absentmindedly set the bottle down next to almost an hour ago.  He didn't even like booze.  Didn't understand why anybody would want to muddy one's mind - after all, nobody spins in office chairs to voluntarily induce vertigo, fuzzy vision, and the urge to vomit.  He hadn't showered in two days, and even in a T-shirt and shorts, his hair was flattened with grease and his nose and forehead were shin

rm -rf / is a command line on Linux shells (and probably UNIX too) that's somewhat of a joke in the geek world: it removes (rm) everything recursively (r) and forcefully (f) from the root directory (/), resulting in a COMPLETE deletion of every file on the hard drive (until the program "rm" deletes itself, at which time the computer becomes retarded).

You want to pipe the output of rm to echo?

after rm removes itself, what happened? will it return to the shell because the shell maybe still remain in the RAM? or.. rm -f /dev/ram will erase everything in the RAM too? :-)

Ahaha, god I love it. I feel very sorry for the suckers that actually see and try the command. Hopefully those users arent given root access.

Cool man! I probably would have chosen a different font.
