Fun fact: in #bash, comments are not limited to scripts. You can write them in interactive sessions too.
This can be useful for leaving yourself a note for later, perhaps on a separate tmux window where you'll be doing the thing.
Comments will also appear in your bash_history, so if someone will be investigating what you're about to do and it's going to be a bad look, you can leave a comment to explain.
