Unix isn't a cult or a fraternity with rites of passage, is it?  I could
have sworn it was an operating system.

No f*#$$ way.  Why the hell should I, because you say so and it's some sort
of silly-ass rite of passage to learn it?  There are a million other
alternatives out there.

Sorry I'm being something of a grouch, but I hate this fanatic type crap,
and will NEVER be one of those *nix users who think their OS is the only
one worth using and get on everyone else's case who uses another OS.  I
hate those f*&$#$ers.

Sorry, all, I'm grumpy today.  A lot of hrs. without sleep again.
