Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-4920:
---------------------------------------

-1 on Honey Badger. I'm pretty ignorant of Internet memes, for full disclosure, 
but someone recently showed me the Youtube video behind this one and, frankly, 
it's one of the dumbest fucking things I've ever seen, to use a technical term.

> We could have a fluffy little duck that quacks 'hbase!' when you squeeze it

> Or we could have an Orca (Big!, Fast!, Killer!, and in a poem that Marcy from 
> Salesforce showed me, that was a bit too spiritual for me to be seen quoting 
> here, it had the Orca as the 'Guardian of the Cosmic Memory': i.e. in
