- asher12000, on 07/17/2008, -4/+817"Wanking Walruses"? Sounds like a good Ubuntu name to me!
- kragil, on 07/17/2008, -13/+405Sorry, corrected title:
Linus Torvalds calls Diggers (and I quote) "Wanking Walruses"
But a good digg headline has to have errors, right? - inactive, on 07/17/2008, -11/+274As a Fundamentalist Christian Walrus I find this offensive.
- dualscreenman, on 07/17/2008, -12/+274I lol'd.
- baron42, on 07/17/2008, -5/+233Im bored at work I can't help myself.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybK_qbo9h70 - usingpond, on 07/17/2008, -4/+186Haha, it worked.
- YodaJones, on 07/17/2008, -3/+146Linus is right.
- inactive, on 07/17/2008, -4/+122Wanking Walruses -- a candidate for a future Ubuntu release!
- inactive, on 07/17/2008, -1/+110How exactly does a Walrus wank?.....never mind I Googled it.
- conchur, on 07/17/2008, -1/+101or just drop that redundant inner clause entirely:
Linus Torvalds calls Diggers "Wanking Walruses"
The fact that it's a quote is adequately implied by the quotation marks... - Virtualtaco, on 07/17/2008, -8/+92If they don't release Ubuntu "Wanking Walrus" I will be pissed.
- leszek, on 07/17/2008, -1/+83Good strategy... Front Page guaranteed
But does he really need it ? - neopherine, on 07/17/2008, -7/+85I think he was referring to this: http://digg.com/linux_unix/New_Logo_for_BSD
Freaking funny. - twiztidsinz, on 07/17/2008, -4/+78I wank'd.
- Elissar, on 07/17/2008, -1/+74Only if I has my bucket...
- mnemy, on 07/17/2008, -0/+64Wow, and here I was thinking "Can walruses actually wank"? Thanks for clearing that up for me
- theaceoffire, on 07/18/2008, -1/+60I think you missed a few letters.
"Jerkoff Jackrabbit"
"Kissing Kangaroo"
"LoL-ing Lombax"
"Masterbating Monkey"
"Necking Nuthatch"
"Orgasming Ostrich"
"Pulsating Peacock"
"Quivering Quail"
"Randy Raven"
"Slippery Silkworm"
"Tingling Turtle"
"Unhampered Unicorn"
"Voluptuous Vixen"
..
And THEN, "Wanking Walrus"
God that was harder to do than I thought... - eltrev, on 07/17/2008, -0/+57There is a woman's voice in the background and she actually asks "Is that a boy walrus?"
No, female walruses have 14 inch long vaginas. - fussbucket, on 07/17/2008, -2/+57I resemble that remark.
- samurimaster, on 07/17/2008, -0/+52Who told him ?
- martalli, on 07/17/2008, -0/+51If we weren't already, Linus, I think we have tried to become what you expected of us.
- meeces, on 07/17/2008, -10/+58It's a trap!!!
- martalli, on 07/17/2008, -2/+50I think that will be about version 13.10
- JDoorjam, on 07/17/2008, -3/+46But to actually see _pictures_ of wanking walruses, you have to go to 4chan.
- inactive, on 07/17/2008, -0/+42Ubuntu 22.04 "Wanking Walrus"
- ramenite, on 07/17/2008, -2/+44Linux Torvalds calls Diggers--and I quote--"Wanking Walruses"
I believe that's also acceptable. The em dash, the spork of all punctuation. - inactive, on 07/17/2008, -2/+43"And to get wider distribution for this message:.."
Linus, single handedly, just gamed digg.com :| - diggB, on 07/17/2008, -3/+44I am the eggman, they are the eggmen.
I am the walrus, goo goo g'joob g'goo goo g'joob.

- Hollow5, on 07/17/2008, -0/+35you didn't need to go far, just one comment above you...
- SverigesKung, on 07/17/2008, -6/+41I love you Linus
- ToadLeg, on 07/17/2008, -1/+36it goes up one letter of the alphabet per version, and we are at letter "H" right now, so:
23(W) - 8(H) = 15
15 / 2(per year) = 7.5
2008.04 + 7.06 = 2015.10
For it to be 13.10, 4 letters would have to be not used. - animefx, on 07/17/2008, -6/+40I has a Bucket...
Noooo they be stealin' my Bucket! - Dweed, on 07/17/2008, -5/+39Goo Goo G'Joob

How can you not like this guy? - t0x2c, on 07/17/2008, -1/+34THE LIMITATIONS OF HIS APPARATUS SHALL NOT BE THE PREJUDICE IN THIS GRAMMAR ACCUSATION AND SHALL NOT AFFECT POTENTIAL APPREHENSION PROCEDURES.
That's like rule 3 of being a grammar nazi. - chobit, on 07/17/2008, -1/+33Actually, theodenking, that's two hyphens next to each other. Muphry's law strikes again!
- hyphen
– en dash
— em dash - billizm, on 07/17/2008, -0/+31From the page, flewellyn responded with:
'Please, please, please let some future release of Ubuntu be called "Wanking Walrus"' - tech42er, on 07/17/2008, -0/+31Damn, those are some slutty walruses!
- inactive, on 07/17/2008, -0/+31I swear i'd switch to ubuntu just to say i installed an OS with that name.
- Chebsi, on 07/17/2008, -3/+33Please don't hang yourself. You have a life worth living!

- raskali, on 07/17/2008, -5/+32It's true I am hung like a walrus, but I certainly didn't expect Linus to go broadcasting it to the world!
- derjames, on 07/17/2008, -1/+27first Masturbating Monkeys and now this....
- twiztidsinz, on 07/17/2008, -38/+64better title:

- yertthedigger, on 07/17/2008, -0/+24Yes, Linus has great sense for naming Ubuntu distros.
