Ways to Confuse, Worry, or Just Scare 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 out of the room.



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 the monitor on duty 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.



8. Ask the person next to you if they know how to tap into top-secret Pentagon files.



9. Use Interactive Send to make passes at people you don't know.



10. Make a small ritual sacrifice to the computer before you turn it on.



11. Bring a chainsaw, but don't use it. If anyone asks why you have it, say"Just in case..." mysteriously.



12. Type on VAX for a while. Suddenly start cursing for 3 minutes at everything bad about your life. Then stop and continue typing.



13. Enter the lab, undress, and start staring at other people as if they're crazy while typing.



14. Light candles in a pentagram around your terminal before starting.



15. Ask around for a spare disk. Offer money. Keep asking until someone agrees. Then, pull a disk out of your fly and say, "Oops, I forgot."



16. Every time you press Return and there is processing time required, pray"O pleaseo pleaseo pleaseo please," and scream "YES!" when it finishes.



17. "DISK FIGHT!!!"



18. Start making out with the person at the terminal next to you (It helps if you know them, but this is also a great way to make new friends).



19. Put a straw in your mouth and put your hands in your pockets. Type by hitting the keys with the straw.



20. If you're sitting in a swivel chair, spin around singing "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" whenever there is processing time required.



21. Draw a pictue of a woman (or man) on a piece of paper, tape it to your monitor. Try to seduce it. Act like it hates you and then complain loudly that women (men) are worthless.



22. Try to stick a Ninetendo cartridge into the 3 1/2 disc drive, when itdoesn't work, get the supervisor.



23. When you are on an IBM, and when you turn it on, ask loudly where the smiling Apple face is when you turn on one of those.



24. Print out the complete works of Shakespeare, then when its all done(two days later) say that all you wanted was one line.



25. Sit and stare at the screen, biting your nails noisely. After doing this for a while, spit them out at the feet of the person next to you.
