Haha, backing up /opt? That's where all the optional software lives. I'm going with D, the /proc directory. Easy choice!

Wait, you want me to back up /backup? That's like backing up your backup! I'll go with D, the /proc directory.

Hmm, /var/log is where the logs are stored, so that's a no-go. I'll pick D, the /proc directory.

Yeah, /proc is a virtual filesystem that doesn't contain real files, so it doesn't need to be backed up.
