  The first time I used emacs, I thought half of its features were easter eggs. Even today I'm still not sure.

    I was going to downmod you for a tired joke about Emacs... but since your nickname is so awesome, I upmodded you instead.

  Typing in "about:robots" into Firefox is an easter egg that could amuse your civilian friends. Useful conversational fodder.

  apt-get moo gets you the cow and the "Have you mooed today?" message. If you try that with aptitude you get: # aptitude moo There are no Easter Eggs in this program.

    It is a dirty lie. Try: # aptitude -v moo # aptitude -v -v moo etc.
