He should have asked mastodon about the worst man pages too. Some of them are really bad. My pet peeve are the ones that assume a particular audience with a particular knowledge set. My second pet peeve are inconsistent command line flags.

Man Page for park-dribble

Utility for parking the dribbles.

park-dribble -U Unstash context before parking

park-dribble -x or -X Execute preliminary cleaning

park-dribble --1 Only use one preprocessor

Note that the behavior of this command is undefined on systems with the X-CRLT-1 chipset versions 23 and above. Thank you very much, Dave.
