Trying to free up some space on a unix box
I attempted to delete a directory way down a chain of archive directories called "home" but instead of typing "rm -rf home" I typed "rm -rf /home". How the boss laughed! I say laughed, it was more "threatened me with the sack".

Alt: Hadn't really thought about it, as I assumed we were too worldly wise to fall for that marketing guff. But I discovered earlier that I am very much in the minority of our relationship on that one, so need to figure something out pronto.

AltAlt: bollocks parrot

I don't think even the people who are into golden showers consider it something particularly romantic.

Sometimes just spending time alone with your partner is enough.
LOL

if you don't regularly spend time alone with them then they don't count as your partner
that's just somebody you're stalking
