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.
