I'm sure that we've all pulled pranks like that. My favourite was piping
the output of "man" (a shell script on that system) through "Valley Girl"
(where each "!" was followed e.g. by "Gag me with a spoon!" etc).
Well, $BOSS came into the office after a "heavy" night, and did something
like "man uucp", not quite figuring out what was wrong; I was summoned
shortly afterwards, as I was the only possible culprit...
