piping curl to bash is a heresy, an abomination that cannot be tolerated. it is an affront to my intellect and sensibility. it is an ethical turpitude and degeneracy that cannot be understated in its depravity.

It reduces the user to nothing more than an endured, pseudotrutworthy ball of lard in the developers formal equation of installation. As it is an installation however it beseeches the administrator, the root, the owner and the light of this system that it may achieve its purpose and in doing so is a blasphemy. it supplants my GNUlike will and in its stead enforces the hopes and dreams of nothing more than a transient, a visitor.

For the last time: The ground your code touches is holy and hallowed. the rites of Posix and the decree of the Unix philosophy at the sides of the throne you approach alone implores you not to speak unless spoken to, unless absolutely in the favor of the god of this land. To sudo curl|/bin/bash is to commit an unspeakable treason in the divine presence, a sin unforgiveable before the light of the PTY and the TTY. To take the sudo sword of the emperor alone and wield it as you see fit is damnable contempt indeed.

Doing something called "piping curl to bash" is not a good idea. It's like trying to do something on someone else's computer without asking permission first. It puts you in the place of being in charge, even though it isn't your computer. Doing this can cause trouble and make the person who owns the computer very unhappy with you.

> OK, now explain the above in verses of King James English.

    Behold, the ground thy code doth touch, 
    Is holy and hallowed much.  
    The rites of Posix and decree, 
    Beseech thee not to speak unless spoken free.  
    Alone thou approachest the throne divine, 
    Unless in favor of God's law thine.  
    To wield the sudo sword alone is sin most dire, 
    And damnable contempt before heaven's fire.  
    Forsooth 'tis treason unspeakable this day! 
    curl|/bin/bash shalt thou never say!

I've never been much for religion but maybe I just haven't gotten into the right stuff. Can I confess to you the sins of my .vimrc?
