I for one support our new meme overlords :)

I wonder if it isn't some kind of inside joke relating to AYB & Ubuntu's preoccupation with animals. 'Cats' was the enemy, 'AYBABTU' is the socially-accepted goal of every capitalist organisation, and the ending 3 lines of the sequence go 'You know what you doing. Move Zig. For great justice' (people running a server should generally know what they're doing)
At a stretch, 'wings' relates to a graphical environment and the game AYB came from was called 'Zero Wing'.

Maybe I'm just reading waaay too much into it.

The US invasion of Afghanistan was code-named 'Operation Infinite
Justice.' Apparently, it was changed because according to some in Islam,
only Allah can provide 'infinite justice.'

Does this mean Ubuntu is God?
