While dabbling about Ubuntu 9.10 ! I came across this command ! .....

sudo get-apt moo

acer@acer:~$ sudo apt-get moo
         (__)
         (oo)
   /------\/
  / |    ||
 *  /\---/\
    ~~   ~~
...."Have you mooed today?"...

Which most surprisingly 'made a MOO' ! .....Does anyone know any more such funnier outcomes of command line etc ?

This is an easter egg in ubuntu ! .... and nearly every flavour of Linux has some !... how unfortunate for the cows !
