We have a 'jump' server, used to ssh into remote boxes, a truly public space with numerous users, such as myself, logged in poking around looking for the right hostnames etc. Having just learned of the wall command, I alt-tabbed to a session and thinking it fun to give a whirl. My message?

"Whats up playas"

A brief reprieve. But ah the word!

"Yo."

So came the flurry. A new message. And another. And another. Messages scratched across the server wall as though all the company had congregated outside this massive sleek black edifice where our words so glowed. I'm sure even some HR slavers or sales kin made the trek through the Terminal Wastes to bear witness to this spectacle. It was our digital Wailing wall except our shrieks were laughter. We were posting ASCII art by the time a sysadmin stepped in and put a stop to our revelry. Anymore posting would result in bans, temporary of course, but exile nonetheless.

Silence.

Then the CEO:

"Sup."
