Debian/ubuntu Aptitude Easter Egg

[Rob]

Ok, so not everyone knows about this.. open a terminal and type:

aptitude moo

Then, add a -v for verbosity:

aptitude -v moo

Then, keep adding a v..

aptitude -vv moo

And, you'll evenutally get to the easter egg.

rob@station-222:~$ aptitude moo
There are no Easter Eggs in this program.
rob@station-222:~$ aptitude -v moo
There really are no Easter Eggs in this program.
rob@station-222:~$ aptitude -vv moo
Didn't I already tell you that there are no Easter Eggs in this program?
rob@station-222:~$ aptitude -vvv moo
Stop it!
rob@station-222:~$ aptitude -vvvv moo
Okay, okay, if I give you an Easter Egg, will you go away?
rob@station-222:~$ aptitude -vvvvv moo
All right, you win.

What is it?  It's an elephant being eaten by a snake, of course.

Haha, very nice find there.

I find it very interesting and cool that they would take their time to put in cool little Easter eggs in there.
