First, this is not the standard “cowsay”, this appears to be from the NPM version of “cowsay”. (npm install -g cowsay)
Second this is the “meow” cow, so cowsay -f meow "hello". Also called “A meowing tiger?”.
Third, the fortune is available in the, now commonly removed, fortunes-off, package. I know Debian removed it, I think others did too. But you can install it manually.
And finally the source of the quote seems to be “Jester’s Condescending English Dictionary”.
Oh I went digging for like an hour to find that “cow” and I found out it was a tiger and not a weird unicorn.
That would be a cool design for a beast to be honest
Is this cowsay?
I think fortune | cowsay, but someone else probably knows better (like which collection of fortunes this one is from)
I did some digging.
