You couldn't help it, could you? :)

  Many moons ago I mentioned the story of "more" and "less" to our (female) DBA, who was unfamiliar with the commands, and the expression "less is more". "It's right in the manpage, actually". "No." "Yes, I'll send it to you." And so I did, with the subject line "man less". She sat at a desk right in front of mine, and I detected a somewhat painful silence as the email arrived. And realized I'd just inadvertently commented on her social life (confirmed through later conversations).
