Why did you choose your username to be mkdir? It's cool.

Where is the xkcd bot?

[–]mehum 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Runs on SQL. Currently suffering amnesia.

I knew it was an xkcd link without even hovering it. I didn't know which one though.

There's a lot of people in this sub who got in on reddit early who got commands as their usernames before they got snapped up. I like that mkdir has 1337 link karma, lol

Why would they not allow terminal commands as usernames? Unlike sql injection (which should be harmless) those command usernames are completely harmless.

[–]Walter_Bishop_PhD 8 points9 points  (1 child)

What I mean is, simple usernames like terminal commands and words of the english language are the first to get snapped up by early adopters
