Well since Brandon started an April fools joke, here is a link to some geeky computer related pranks! (check out the firefox add-in's, super funny)

You're still in time!

LOL. I've changed the start up and shut down screens on coworkers before, but never thought of the BSOD screen saver. Thanks for the site

 

Too funny

I've done some of those including the VNC one but I did it different. I signed up a flaming liberal to a Republican contenders website that sent out weekly emails. I could hear her in the other room cursing up a storm so I would kick on VNC and watched her remove herself from the mailing list. I opened up a Yahoo account for this politician and I sent an email that was something like this (it was years ago so this is not going to be exact).

The only reason we could make this work is because we needed to know when she hit the unsubscribe link. Once we knew that, we could VNC, send our fake email, and then I would go add her to the subscription list again. By the time we did this for about 6 weeks, her emails to be added to the fake "manual removal" list were HYSTERICAL!!! She was skilled at her job but EVERYBODY hated her guts so you know that email was shared with everyone else in the office.

 

It wouldn't have worked if I didn't pick someone who was the polar opposite of her.

 

Phew, I deleted my post just in case it was taken the wrong way. Glad it wasn't.


Kinda akin to hooking up Iraf to a PETA site

 

Nope....no harm no foul.

I wish we had security cameras in that office for when the weekly email came. It was too funny. We didn't leave our offices but everyone was laughing silently. She eventually ended up getting so mad that she was throwing things.

She kept her job because of her skills. But clients hated her, employees hated her, people we were in partnership hated her. Sadly, I think she hated herself. But after you have someone curse you out over nonsense enough times for enough years, eventually people want to get even and that's what we did.

 

Wow, that's pwnage to get her to throw things, hahaha

 

Awesome prank! lol...
