In the middle of all the gimp naming controversy, if there's a name I would stick to with ease, it would be something involving the green pepper.

"Controversy"

Gimp as been around for 26 years. You probably should've complained in 1998

Was probably not aware of it b

Yeah, I was gonna say, holding Chrome OS above Windows because its Linux based is bizarre. That's getting more true about Android, too. For all its faults, I can still say I'm the admin of my Windows OS (for now), and not Google.

Admittedly this is where the meme kind of breaks down.
