con is a reserved system name.

Speaking of con, I remember that long ago, if you were type /con/con on a 9x box, it would instantly blue screen. Oh the days when I was like 13 telling people to /con/con in IRC and watching 50 people disconnect! The good old days!

Go to a users desktop, do a print screen. load up paintbrush and paste in the desktop. Select a white paintbrush and remove eveything else like the paintbrush toolbox etc, so nothing else shows.

now watch from afar when someone tries to click or drag icons and look completly confused when they start drawing thick white lines over there screens! Try it its real fun.

also watching someone write an email over terminal services whilst your on with remote control and without needing user confirmation for your presence. Then just keep hitting the caps lock whilst they type and ignore the helpdesk phone when it rings!!!

Spoof ICMP dest unr packets to my coworkers to hear them say "why the hell is xxx connecting to me". Other times, I change my caller ID to something like Pizza Hut closest to one my friends/relatives and tell them their pizza is waiting... (I work at a VoIP provider so caller ID is clockwork). I once called my friend who just returned from a tour in Iraq that I hadn't spoken to in a while and told him he needed to be on base at 0400 for re-deployment. Then I called him back two hours later to say "gotcha".

My biggest joke to date... Spoofed an advisory through security lists on FreeBSD complete with modified PGP key

Oh history...
