Kissasean.sh May 2026

💋 This feature is a work of creative tech writing. No Seans were harmed in its production. But one was kissed. You know who you are.

The script itself is tiny. Here’s a pseudo-version circulating in the wild: 💋 This feature is a work of creative tech writing

So go ahead. Run it. Check your logs. And if you see a kiss from someone you don’t know… maybe blow one back. You know who you are

In the dim glow of a terminal window, where logic usually reigns supreme, a new piece of folklore is making the rounds on GitHub, DevRant, and late-night IRC channels. Its name is deceptively simple: .

The script uses who , grep , cut , write , and date —standard tools from 1970s Bell Labs. No dependencies. No containers. Just a kiss, a log, and a little mystery. “I installed it on our production jump box as a joke,” says one Reddit user, “and now there’s a cron job running it every Friday at 4:59 PM. Sean from accounting has no idea why he keeps getting kissed right before the weekend.” To be clear: kissasean.sh is not malicious, but it is mischievous. Sending unsolicited terminal messages to another user ( write $SEAN ) is borderline workplace chaos. Some IT departments have banned it. Others have integrated it into onboarding.

#!/bin/bash # kissasean.sh - Because even servers need affection. KISS="💋" SEAN=$(who | grep -i sean | cut -d' ' -f1 | head -n1) if [ -z "$SEAN" ]; then echo "👻 No Sean found. Kissing current user instead." echo "$KISS -> $(whoami) at $(date)" >> ~/.kisslog else echo "$KISS -> $SEAN at $(date)" >> /tmp/kissasean.log write $SEAN "💋 Pucker up, $SEAN. You've been kissed by $(whoami)." fi
