A fast-growing distro of Linux, geared towards optimisation and people who like to tinker than other distros. It's straight forward to install if you RTFM, but still takes ages as it compiles everything from source code, so that it is faster and more optimised for your system.
The Debian user generalised all Gentoo users as elitist pricks, when, ironically, he was being the prick.
(I'm not generalising- this is a hypothetical character.)

Much like the blinker fluid prank for car noobs, “Install Gentoo” is a prank for people who don’t know how a computer works.
Gentoo is a Linux distribution, which by default, is just a command line. This definitely throws the computer illiterate for a loop, and the computer gurus laugh at you.
