Time for me to lighten up a little. I stumbled upon the cowsay and cowthink commands today while reading the Wikipedia entry about Tux. Cowsay prints an ASCII art picture of a cow and a speach bubble around some provided text, and cowthink puts the text in a think bubble.
cowsay "Well this is all very amusing."

The -f flag allows one to specify different picture, for example -f tux draws Tux instead of a cow.
cowthink -f tux "Why is my kernel building so slowly today?"
_____________________________________
( Why is my kernel building so slowly )
( today? )

There are over 50 pictures to chose from, use cowsay -l to list them all.
To install, use: sudo apt-get install cowsay
Enjoy!
