When people mention sudo I usually think of the T-Shirt DataForce wears from time to time:

“Make me a ham sandwich.”
“No.”
“Sudo Make me a ham sandwich.”
“Okay.” — xkcd

However – perusing a CentOS host – I was presented with the following:

$ sudo bash

We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System
Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things:

 #1) Respect the privacy of others.
 #2) Think before you type.
 #3) With great power comes great responsibility.

Now those are pretty sound words to live by let alone changing to root user.
