History Meme

The new rage seems to be piping this to your blog:

history | awk '{a[$2]++}END{for(i in a){print a[i] " " i}}' | sort -rn | head

It reminds me of history class at school. Always painfully boring, which is such a crying shame, as history itself is fascinating. How school managed to take the subject that could be so enjoyable, and such a tie in to all other subjects, and instead make it incredibly boring is a crying shame.

The only thing that could put me to sleep faster would be:

148 ls
83 cd
29 download_saucy_mare_pictures
28 vi
24 ping
24 git
16 whois
15 wget
13 sudo
12 rm
