One time I was working on an open case computer in my bedroom with the power on. I dropped one of the alligator clips in by accident and it made a connection. Needless to say I never did that again.
Also, back in grade school I thought I was a super user considering that I was one of the 3 kids who knew anything about computers in the school. Me and a friend were designated the school techs. We were installing software on a library computer and I had the bright idea to edit the autoexec.bat. I made it so it would echo my 3 initials and something like "rules!" or something after it. There was so much running that I thought no one would ever see it. That very same afternoon our computer teacher called my house saying she spotted it. I ended up getting a detention for "Improper use of the library facilities" and ended up getting my tech-ship revoked. Oh well. I was getting bored changing the settings so you could use backspace on All The Right Type for everyone.
