When I took programming in high school, in my senior year a few years after I’d already started learning C++ on my own I turned in an assignment to demonstrate I knew how to handle error popups or something and my program would ask if you wanted to delete the system32 directory with everything but yes grayed out and then it would look like it was deleting files even though it wasn’t.

Would have gotten 100% if the teacher didn’t take points away for the joke. 😮‍💨
