And snicker at the snobbery of those who recommend the CLI for everyone.
I don't think I've ever seen someone snicker because CLI was used instead of the GUI but I have seen the CLI users snicker at the GUI users. It's unprofessional and the few that do give the impression that it's a general user trait, reality though there are always a few aholes in every group.
That is not to say that there aren't uses for everyone in the CLI. But it is hard to put to work on an occasional basis.

I feel a lot of the CLI is better just comes down to it being easier to instruct on and it's also often more consistent. Run this command rather than:
what GUI are you using, what version, do you have a icon that looks like a bird, yea, click the little arrow, what just came up etc... WTF did you just click on??? Ummmm, was OK the ONLY button.... No I did not tell you to click on that.... WTF are you talking about, you click the button not me, next time 'Warning' appears don't click the Freakin OK button unless I tell you too...
