thefuck and Other Funny Useful Tools

So recently I was introduced to nvbn/thefuck
by @alfcnz

It is a very useful tool that allows u to type the word fuck after you fuck up a command and it will run the command you were trying to run instead (within reason). Not only is this tool super useful but it was developed with a very playful and humorous writ. I have such an appreciation for people who can make things and do so without taking themselves too seriously. People who do this well remind us that software and how it is written should be fun as well as useful. Sometime this can be easy to forget.

So I am looking for other useful & funny tools to add to my stack. Share any that you think do this well. What are your favorites?

tldr is fantastic when you just need to know which flag to pass to tar to get it to do what you want and don't have time to pore over man pages.
