I would so do this if my boss' computer wasn't already screwed up. She'd assume I did it all.

Haha! That reminds me of a project I had to do years ago for Jamba Juice where I had to remotely go into every franchise's computers and fix some stuff.

Their HQ would get calls of people freaking out because the employees would go to the computer and it would look like it was doing all kinds of weird crap on its own.

The best was that a few times someone would have a spreadsheet or something open, I would wait to see if the pointer moved, and if it didn't I would start what I had to do. Every once in awhile the pointer would start moving and I'd be having a pointer war with some manager who had no idea what was going on.

I did the screenshot desktop one to my dad once. It is really easy to do and the results are hilarious.

One time I took my brothers background and make it a frame in a gif, for 5 min long about or something. Then there was a frame of a dumb looking guys face for half a second, then goes back.

Very fun. Ive considered making an animated one with mouse pointers moving randomly all over the place, haven't gotten there yet.

We've collectively used the blue screen of death, net send and the wallpaper. My sweetie actually told me about using the wallpaper years ago. I've not had the guts to employ it. Perhaps tomorrow. *tents fingers* Muuuahahahahah

Apropos of nothing I did the broken screen thing on the call board monitors in my last job.

What really threw the IT department (and yes, it threw them, really threw them) was that they were CRT monitors, not LCD.

Oh how we laughed.
