Go to Google.com on the unsuspecting victim's computer, click on “settings” and “search settings”. There is a drop-down menu next to “interface language” where you can go nuts. Klingon is the weirdest, but how about Icelandic or Hacker? (source)

One of my favorites: On a friend's computer, hit Print Screen, paste the image into Paint or whatever, turn it upside-down and set it as wallpaper. Then hide the taskbar and all the desktop icons (just drag them off the screen).

Did I really just see a rubber coffee spill thing on this list? No, HP. Just no.

This is pathetic, when did you hire a bunch of old people on this site?
