Why terminal shows "/home/igoru /etc/bash_completion" every time I open it?

Why terminal shows "/home/igoru /etc/bash_completion" every time I open it?

I've added some lines to ~/.bash_aliases yesterday... And today my gnome-terminal started showing me this expression in the beginning, just before the prompt.

"""."" is a synonym for ""source."" Some line in some file is trying to source /etc/bash_completion after you have aliased it to ""echo $PWD.""

I think realiasing the bash builtins is a bad idea. Too many scripts will depend on it to act the original way. Consider ""."" a reserved keyword."
