Anyways, it would be easier to come up with a Windows joke since the whole system is a joke on its own, but I'll do my best:
QuoteDespite the generail opninion, linux is very user-friendly operating system. It just chooses who its friends are.
Quoteunzip;strip;touch;grep;grep;finger;mount;fsck;more;yes;fsck;fsck;fsck;umount;sleep

Believe it or not, this is 17 years old.

It's an oldy, but a goody:
Fatal Error: Found MS-Windows System -> Repartitioning Disk for Linux...
It's more like true story :P
QuoteIf you go to a Linux forum and ask for help fixing your WiFi driver, everyone will ignore you. If, instead you say "Linux sucks, you can't even get a fuckin Wifi driver working!" thousands of people will solve the problem for you.
Quoting: lodIf you go to a Linux forum and ask for help fixing your WiFi driver, everyone will ignore you. If, instead you say "Linux sucks, you can't even get a fuckin Wifi driver working!" thousands of people will solve the problem for you.I should try this. I have a laptop with Linux Mint, and every new kernel branch breaks its Broadcom BCM43142 Wi-Fi. It takes months to get fixes, and I still have to use kernel 4.13. I tried to boot Mint 19 beta, it has kernel 4.15 and doesn't allow to select another one via mintUpdate. Switching drivers doesn't help. Linux sucks.
I'd like to get Iconoclasts, please.
Here is a joke, saw this on reddit and really liked it (hopefully noone commented this one before me)
QuoteAll computers I ever owned ran Linux. I had some computers running Windows at home, but they were Microsoft's. There was also a Mac, but I think it was the Mac who owned me.
QuoteNormally every game should support Linux because in the requirements they say windows 7 or better!!!

Joke:
So I was dealing with this user on my website called "LeafyOne," who was obviously probing the site, but not masking his ip address. I thought, this is an easy one, why not call him out on it for the fun of it.
Then I received a couple hundred emails, and they all said one thing:
LeafyOne:
"I am root"
some@unlucky_dude:~$ save -me -some -money
Scanning for windows **ts and dir's.............
............................
... Found something in you'r drive, that belongs to windows(i mean - Not to You).
Do you want to remove forever all these viruses and backdoor programs for good?
Options:
YES/OK/AFFIRMATIVE/ROGER
Choice any option before time delay ends. 5....4...3..2.1 ...time is up.
Ok, now let me delete and format all these junks for you.
Deleting all................ DONE.
Now you are free! Have a nice live!
some@very_lucky_dude:~$ =-=

Linux joke:
At dinner at a Japanese restaurant, the person next to me said she wanted to work with abused children. Since we had not yet received the tempura, I responded, "If battered shrimps are your interest, we should have some here soon."
