Windows is like the corner prostitute: pay some money, usually get what you want although not the best, occasionally get some horrible disease

Linux is like the sweet SO: has its quirks but you love them for it. let's you grow in your skills but that can be challenging at times. Surprises you in good and bad ways.

Edit: for grammar

I have a different perspective after trying to go linux as my daily driver for decades:

Windows is that kind of easy girl in college that everyone has a chance with but is pretty mid and highly controlling.

Linux is that hot alt girl that you keep seeing in strange clubs like the anime or robotics club, and is really fun to be around until they have a major meltdown out of nowhere and absolutely no one is willing to give you any advice until you take a 6 month course and prove you know enough about girls before they will respond to your questions.
