From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

The Linux socks thing was odd until you showed up, thanks bbg
It was a bold move cotton, and it paid off
Happy cake day homie, if I don't see your hairy ass legs and socks every week from now on, I'll cry
Every week? Dang, I uh... I'm flattered! I'm just not sure that I can keep up with that type of commitment. 😅
Only time will tell
