sudo rm -r / --no-preserve-root

The command in GNU/Linux (or maybe other Unix-based operating systems) that deletes the root directory (/). Some trolls from the internet tell new users to run this command, saying that it will do insert something good here to your system.

If you have ever stumbled upon a person on the internet telling you to enter the command "sudo rm -r / --no-preserve-root", don't do it. Only do it if you know what you're doing, it will delete the system and all of your data.

Pseudo sudo

When it looks someone or something is in control but it feels/actually is fake

Everyone knows that the student council's president is just a pseudo sudo, all of the members follow the vice's lead.

The sudo

When the smell of rotting food at the PDU turns you on that much you have to have a bash and get caught half way through
