My family did a Christmas card design contests and for some reason I really cared about and put a lot of effort just to find out in Christmas Eve is it was fixed so my two 7 yo cousins won since the beginning and everyone but me knew about it. Everyone on my family got a big laugh on me and therly were like dude you're 17, you don't even participate on birthdays and suddenly you care? I was really piss and didn't talk to anyone in the New years party. One of my aunt's took pity of me and made my 7yo cousins made a card to me saying that they share the design price with me. I found that cute and let it be. Nowadays it brings a smile when I remember that because for real, I was the last person on the family to show any interest in anything, so I get it was a surprise for everyone that I cared.

I used to work in a hostel and when clients asked me to waking them up so they don't miss their plane I told them that if they don't wake up after I push them I'm throwing a cup of water on their face, they were like haha ok and then get surprised when they wake up with a cup of water in their face.

Writing an email and sending it are pretty different functions, it's doesn't looks like that because the sending part is just pressing a bottom and all the protocols and sever communication is done in the background hide from the user.

It's like asking the postal service to also write and package your mail and then open and read it for the recipient.

I personally like that philosophy and try to use it in my job, with functions that only do one job and programs that only do one job and then just chain them and make calls from each other. My users doesn't know it's like that and they doesn't notice any difference, but it's help me debugging or implementing new functionalities.

Unix philosophy is 1 program = 1 function, so if you want to send a email Unix way you use 1 program to write the email (vim of course) and another program to send it. The joke here is that sex is a functionality to the alistra program making it not ok with the Unix philosophy, therefore that functionality is going to move to its own program alistsex
