    Linux. The joke is that a person once sunk their entire business because they intended to run that command on a folder to nuke it and forgot to specify which folder so it just ran on the root, deleting every single file on the computer's network, including the backup. It's supposed to be really hard to do but because of the combination of little negligences, it ended up happening in a single command.

    Why did he have to call the Superuser? Why did he tell the command to force? Why did he suppress warnings? These aren't things you're supposed to do if you're responsible.
