On EQ, it would send a tell back with the AFK message every time someone sent a tell, so sometimes I'd put "Mmm hmm, and then what happened? *sips coffee* "
 
At work, with our work IM program, I usually put "at lunch, emergency contact (###)###-####

At home, the only IM I use is Skype, and I just leave it in away all the time, I think I have the name of my old vent server in the away message, but I've taken it down.
 
not anymore, when i did use AIM back in college i would have it never set me back so i was always away/idle and id always put some random message in there to get a response from the idiots that patrolled IM away messages. many people were sent to tub woman or lemon party that were not expecting it
