The first time I looked at this, when it was posted, I failed to recognize that “grub” is a slang word for food.
I used to know that, and I knew it for most of my life. I think it got pushed out by some stupid video I watched, or maybe a meme.
GRUBER KING
Kind of weird how GRUB is “BURG” backwards…
BURG stands for Boot UR GRUB
And GRUB stands for GRand Unified BURGer
at least it’s linux
Likely, but not necessarily. The grand unified bootloader boots a great many things.
This made me think of Mitch Hedbergs escalator joke.
“I like the escalator, man, 'cause the escalator can never break. It can only become stairs. There would never be an ‘Escalator Temporarily Out of Order’ sign, only an ‘Escalator Temporarily Stairs - Sorry for the Convenience.’”
Escalator breaking in such a way that it goes way too quickly could make it unusable.
I wonder how many non tech people thought it was their new slogan.
Is this Burger King?
No, this is GRUB!
Well, I’m at least glad to see that their sign isn’t running Windows.
Grub can even boot windows. It just doesn’t come with the standard windows installer.
Yeah, but in general, people who run Windows don’t use Grub.
