blackware 

Code, normally written in C "to be faster than that perl tat you're using" which will if given half a chance use all the RAM on the machine on which its running (while doing its best to nail the CPUs if it can manage it, preferably using the real time scheduler).

Blackware is working to design if you get this message...

kernel: Out of Memory: Killed process 1 (init).
/* BLACKWARE */
<some C code capable of consuming all the ram on your box goes here>

Saying the alphabet backwards, from Z to A. Thanks to the Captain Kangaroo show, which aired it so very, very many times, I somehow managed to memorize it & can say it in 3 Seconds flat! No kidding!
People doubt that I can say the backwards alphabet & are shocked when I accomplish it! They always ask how I can do that!

Listen here, you twelve year old. Just because you found some "clever" thing over the internet doesn't mean you have to type it in. And if you found this without typing it in I apologize that you had to see such cringe.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
