I found out that this tool http://www.convertlit.com/ provides a program with a funny name. I wonder if there are similar programs with offensive names or puns like this one. For example, I remember reading a fortune output saying something along the lines of

man Why did you get divorced? 
man: Too many arguments.

And of course, there is the cliche touch grass.

    My go-to joke is

    cat /dev/urandom | pxz | grep haxx

    Or if you want to be nasty

    setsid sh -c 'cat /dev/urandom | pacat -p'

    As for puns, less command does the same thing as more on MS-DOS.

        The first one is a fancy CPU warmer. The second one will play loud noise through your headphones, and setsid will make sure you can’t stop it with Ctrl-C.

        There was a thread about console commands seen in movies or TV, when the actors need to do some ‘hacking’ on camera. And the most common one was just installing updates to your Linux distribution of choice.
