I know sudo insults you if you type the wrong password, and I remember
the controversy over the Windowmaker themes package (which was an
unchecked compilation of previously-existing themes, some of which
contained wallpaper featuring nudity-- female, of course-- which was put
under the 'offensive' flag not only because it might be personally
offensive, but because you might be installing Windowmaker at work, and
a random wallpaper or theme change might put you out of a job without
you being aware of the possibility that that could happen).

The others I don't know personally, but are likely similar to one or the
other of these cases as appropriate.
