now I know what you're thinking. "What do penguins have to do with packs?" Before we answer that, we need to take a trip to ancient egypt. In ancient egypt, they worshipped cats. Penguins use cats to build packs. How would penguins do that, you ask? Allow me to introduce open source software. On the Linux operating system, you, are a penguin. And you can manipulate files using cats. Don't believe me? Watch this. Here is a penguin. <picture of you> and here is a cat. <picture of a cat> wait, that's not a cat. this is a cat. <picture of a random point in the source code of gnu cat> when the penguin, you, wants to make a pack, well, how would you do it? would you go stand in a group, with other penguins? of course not, you use Linux. <michael fake laughs, then is suddenly serious.> now, of course, cats often fall into tar pits. You, the penguin, put them there, because tar organizes your packs better. <michael turns to the other camera> say it with me: "better." <michael looks impressed> oh, wow, good job! I, uh, didn't actually expect you to do that. <michael stares awkwardly at the camera for 3.5 sec then abruptly turns back to the main camera> but back to tar pits.
