Proposed Ubuntu Artwork and other sillyness
Proposed Ubuntu Splash screen. Damned funny.
(Not so much if I have to explain the joke).

While looking for a link to explain the joke above I found some parodies of those motivational style posters, describing the various distributions:

Ubuntu

Linux #

Red Hat

Linux #

Fedora

Linux #

Debian

Debian GNU/Linux #

Slackware

Linux #

Caldera

Caldera Linux #

Mandrake

Linux
# (Mandrake now known as Mandriva).

Gentoo

Linux #.
See also Gentoo users are Ricers which compares Gentoo users to modified car enthusiasts.
(the # symbol links to where I found the images, it would be inconsiderate to waste their bandwidth by direct linking them)

I doubt that Ubuntu will ever live down the pre-release debacle from 4.10 with the naked people. However, I still use the distro.

However, I must know where you found that woman for the Ubuntu picture.

Hello All,

I loved your humor on these various distributions. And the humor seems to fit the natures of these distributions, although it is not meant to be taken seriously.

Keep up the good humor,

Michael Walters

I love these. I didn't really get the Debian one (when I tried debian) ... but hey, it's still funny. Actually, I would personally have done that with Gentoo myself but hey, thats just me. (not trying to be a firestarter you rabid damn Gentoo folks)

I think Debian has the reputation for being the most FSF/GPL fanatical major distro.
Whether or not it's deserved, I dunno: to busy getting hit with the Gentoo jackhammer.
