...?  What the *hell* are you even doing?

Is this some sort of bash-completion nonsense?  It's gotta be.

So, yeah, if you're actually using bash-completion (*shudder*) and if
your bash-completion is set up to issue ssh commands to retrieve the
names of remote files while you type, then having unprotected noisy
commands in your dot files is an *extremely* bad idea.
