Hehe.... the post about all the different shells out there got me to thinking.

I mean, we have C Shell (Sea Shell), BASH (Bourne Again Shell)... but I think we need some more.

How about.....
Turtle Shell - It lives forever (about 150 years) but it's so SLOOOOOW!

She Shell - About every 28 days, it bloats up and demands a pint of Ben and Jerry's

Snail Shell - A derivitive of turtle shell, it's slower, but easier to kill if you just SALT the data.

Artillery Shell - Mainly used in NUKe attacks....

Egg Shell - Goes bad quickly if your CPU isn't cool enough. Refrigeration cooling suggested....

Can you guys think of any others? (I know this isn't a "joke" forum, but hey, a little humor goes a long way towards having a better day!)

::)

Clam Shell - only runs as a background process, closes as soon as you go anywhere near it.

Annihilannic.
 
Luser Shell - returns nonsense with evey command ('cause the idiot wasn't going to get anything done anyway...)

Annihilannic:
You know, I came up with "clam shell", but I couldn't think of anything to go with it! Good job! hehe

Hmmm.... how about:

Oyster Shell - Takes several months to develop a PERL application. :D

when you tell your manager what the REAL effort and schedule is.

Sorry, Greg:

Blame the lacquer, but I'm feeling a bit shellacked.

I can't decide whether to disappear or just varnish. Hehe- I'm "finished" either way!

You're "finnished"?

And here I thought you were norwegian.... ;)

Maybe you're half cuban, half icelandic... an "Ice Cuban"....

I have 40% Chippewa, 40% French and a fifth of Scotch.



 
fse shell: The shell that is constantly updated with a listing of adult websites and can do nothing but deliver the content to the user environment VIEWER binary as argument in loop..

Might be pretty popular.

Peanut Shell - Plays a version of "Linus and Lucy" called "Linux and Lucy" every time you log in.

I thought the fse shell was a variant of the Korn shell - the porn shell...

Social shell - won't do anything unless it's absolutely comfortable with the circumstances.

Protective shell - displays a prompt, does nothing else because it risks violating system security.

Turtle shell 1 - requires commands be written in Amiga (?) Turtle Graphics language only

Turtle shell 2 - very slow, and keeps all output inside itself to prevent it being seen.

Taco Shell - Cannot be exported to Mexico

Band Shell - Only uses a MIDI interface; you have to be able to read music to enter commands

Egg Shell - If you make a mistake, then the yolk's on you. (Ugh... I can't believe I just said that)

SSH (Pt 2) - Requires a strong password of at least 72 characters, half of them must be japanese katakana, then a biometrics scan (retinal or fingerprint), followed by a challenge/response passphrase, before it denies you login.
