It checks the exit status of your command and prints praise for success or encouragement for an error. Funny idea, customizable too 😂

SHELL_MOMMYS_LITTLE: Sets the affectionate term that mommy will use to refer to the user. The default value is "girl".

That's a build-in sudo feature, set by Defaults insults in your sudoers file.
