catfight

When two or more *nix shell scripters argue whether cat is necessary or if shell redirection will suffice (and/or is superior).

Admin 1: You don't need to `cat file | grep word` you can just do `grep word file`
Admin 2: Is it really more performant <eye roll>??!
Admin 3: You can do this `var =$(< test)` instread of `var=$(cat test)`
Admin 2: Umm yeah I accidentally clobbered a file when I goofed up and did `var =$(> test)`, I'll keep using cat
Admin 1 & 3: Noooooooo! It's a Useless Use of Cat (UUOC) !!!!1!1!!!!
Admin: How did this become a catfight?!

Burnt Catfish

A person who uses many filters, lighting and knows their angles precisely to make pictures likeable. When person is seen in person does not look anything like their online presence. Attractive in pictures vs. in reality. Visually unappealing. Technically not a catfish but altered version.

I met her in person and turned out she was a burnt catfish in person.
