The Horror

[MoPHo]

Earlier today when I was at work I had to use one of the community desktops that our office has as mine was being upgraded by IT. Not acting like a T-Rex as people were around. Anyways, I was waiting to hear back from a co-worker that I had sent an e-mail to and figured I'd come lurk the bright and shiny world of ATOT. I had never used this computer before. As I go to type in the address, forums.anandtech.com showed up on the history that drops down from the browser.

:Q

There weren't any threads that showed up, just the site. I know everyone in my office and the part that's weird is none of them (beside IT) know anything about computers. They nearly crapped their pants when I took video and put it into a power point presentation. No more ATOT at work for fear of my co-worker/you calling me out...

joke's on you. Before I got up, I coughed my swine flu all over the keyboard.

I don't think anyone here really uses the site, we just noticed it in your history and wanted to see what the site looks like.

Did you put in your login information? Perhaps that's stored somewhere on a server.

I only logged in once at work but that was on a personal laptop off a wireless signal from a neighboring Starbucks. Don't think it was because of the server, we only store histories for 5 days and I hadn't browsed at work this week or the weekend.

I know at least two of my coworkers are ATers; we have an internal phone tool that allows users to create "communities". I threw the Anandtech logo up there and periodically check to see if anybody joined the community. I've never sought out the two people who joined; should I swing by their desks sometime and prank them AT style?

Switch their mouse button config. That's one of my favorites.

Yeah, but that would be weird, some coworker you've never met screwing with your settings. I was thinking more along the lines of leaving a spider with a Syringer label on their desk or something...

Leave them an alternator sized piece of bulk beef on their desks.

Oh good god, I would be so fired but it would almost be worth it...

If I knew they were regular OTers who would definitely get the joke, I almost would do this. However I only know their real names, not their SNs.
