You can make the command line meming tool even more obscure: echo "How CLI memers look at GUI memers" | convert -background transparent -fill black -font Liberation-Sans -pointsize 24 label:@- twilight-snobs.png -gravity center -composite jpeg:- | curl -F "file=@-;filename=meme.jpg" "$(sed -n 's/^UPLOAD_URL=//p' config.env)"

Imagemagick is basically command-line GIMP. It's very handy for doing server-side image processing, like scaling down profile pics or adding watermarks.
