This is a little pick me up that I like to think of when I have a psycho-SC on the line, I type in in terminal, and it makes me happy. You should be running OS X for this one.
You first set up a file on root called Barley Hops Fermentation. Then create folders in root called Beer Store, My Fridge, My Stomache, then open terminal.
Type:
mv /Barley\ Hops\ Fermentation /Beer
mv /Beer /Beer\ Store/Beer
mv /Beer\ Store/Beer /My\ Fridge/Beer
mv /My\ Fridge/Beer /My\ Stomache/Beer
mv /My\ Stomache/Beer /Pee
sudo rm /Pee
And the whole thing is done. Managers are none the wiser because you have removed the file called Pee.
Small things, I know.

okay, I have no clue, at all that is being said. Maybe one of you can explain in great detail, what I am not understanding

They're just using linux commands to describe everyday stuff.
(from the first post)
mv = move.
rm = remove.
(from the third post)
cd = change directory
talk = a chat type of program
finger is just being used because of the name of the command.
pkill = sends a signal to a process. In this case send a kill signal to me. (i.e. kill me)
mesg -n = disallow write access to the terminal. i.e. stop doing work.
less is just being used for the name of the command, less will take the a file and put it's contents into a scrollable window for reading.
more is just being used for the name of the command. more is similar to less, with some slight differences.
cat is also being used just for the name of the command. cat takes files, concatonates them, and displays the output. Good for quickly looking at the contents of small files.

Yes, less is more. However, the commands are not actually limited to linux, they are unix commands and therefore work in Mac OS X as well.
