Linus, in one of his less bright moments, called the OpenBSD team a bunch of masturbating monkeys [1]. Unfortunately, the Linux kernel's conspicuous lack of attack mitigation measures (compared to Win/Mac/OpenBSD/etc) does make one wonder who has been masturbating over the past few years.

(to be clear: I like and use Linux a lot... but Linus's disregard for security is becoming a liability)
