The first time that I found bash.org, I was laughing so hard that I had tears streaming down my face. What a great day that was.

I was browsing the top posts and cracking up at some of them, truly some of the best things on the internet

One of my absolute favorite features of the game "Hacknet" was finding these logs in various filesystems you hack into. Such a nice touch.

I made it a personal mission to copy them to myself before exiting the target. I distinctly remember the one about "duck stand-up comedy" too lol.

Keep calm and wipe the logs. :)
