(FROM)....50 WAYS TO CONFUSE, WORRY, OR JUST SCARE THE BEJEEZUS OUT OF PEOPLE IN THE COMPUTER LAB
---------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Log on, wait a sec, then get a frightened look on your face and scream "Oh my God! They've found me!" and bolt.

2. Laugh uncontrollably for about 3 minutes & then suddenly stop and look suspiciously at everyone who looks at you.

3. When your computer is turned off, complain to your neighbor that you can't get the damn thing to work. After he/she's turned it on, wait 5 minutes,turn it off again, & repeat the process for a good half hour.

4. Type frantically, often stopping to look at the person next to you evilly.

5. Before anyone else is in the lab, connect each computer to different screen than the one it's set up with.

6. Write a program that plays the "Smurfs" theme song and play it at the highest volume possible over & over again.

7. Work normally for a while. Suddenly look amazingly startled by something on the screen and crawl underneath the desk.


[i]There's more (duh! 43 more! but some may not be quite appropriate for posting here [img]smile.gif[/img] . I thought these would be a good start, tho [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] ..)

Here's a few more

30. Take the keyboard and sit under the computer. Type up your paper like this. Then go to the lab supervisor and complain about the bad working conditions.

31. Laugh hysterically, shout "You will all perish in flames!!!" and continue working.

32. Bring som dry ice & make it look like your computer is smoking.

33. Assign a musical note to every key (ie. the Delete key is A Flat, the B key is F sharp, etc.). Whenever you hit a key, hum its note loudly. Write an entire pape this way.

34. Attempt to eat your computer's mouse.

35. Borrow someone else's keyboard by reaching over, saying "Excuse me, mind if I borrow this for a sec?", unplugging the keyboard & taking it.

36. Bring in a bunch of magnets and have fun.

37. When doing calculations, pull out an abacus and say that sometimes the old ways are best.

38. Play Pong for hours on the most powerful computer in the lab.

there was one going around the office a couple years ago that was funny... when you opened the email it turned the sound card volume all the way up and yelled out "Hey everybody, I'm watching PORN over here!"

now they filter all emails so you can't pull ones like that but it was pretty funny to listen to it propegate around the office.

Any of u lot go to Aberdeen Univerity, cos this coudns awful familiar.

I usualy work as described in 4, sometimes because im evil and sometimes to copy what their code looks like.

doing 36 with a monitor can be fun - till they knock a magnet into your disc box. still, redoing 3 months work in a week is all part of the fun, right?


Oh, and if the rest are this funny, could you PM or EMail me a link plz?

Now that one is fun, especially when you do the mice as well, so its just the speakers and keyboard which are right!
