I guess I'm too young to have done it yet... :-)
But I remember back in school, my teacher managed to do:
C:\> del *.*
Are you sure (Y/N)?
- "Yes, of course I'm sure, damnit!" Y Return
- "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
Well, he came crawling back to a few of us: "Guys, I know you have
certain *utilities* lying around this lab, can you get it back for me?"
Of course we could. He was a really cool guy, this teacher. :-)
