I was there at the beginning when the Navy Marine Corps Internet rolled out at Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command and it had some pretty rocky teething problems that lasted a few years but the one I really enjoyed was when the idiots would take down the entire NMCI by hitting a flame spray message "Reply to All".
It didn't happen with the first one but within 30 seconds enough people hit, "reply to all" telling everyone else to stop using "reply to all" that the entire system froze solid and had to be rebooted somewhere else on the planet by guys that weren't paying attention or had taken the day off in Plano, Texas. The second or third time it happened my colleagues and I would look at each other, nod, and all go to lunch.
I wonder if there is a, "reply to all" function for this one.
1. Overthrew the government.
2. Set fire to attack ships off the shoulder of Orion.
3. Learned to code.
4. Ran a very successful lemonade sale to raise money to buy a new B21 Bomber.
5. Invaded Mexico (more of a lunch-time ratissage).

LOL about the attack ships off Orion :-)
I wonder how many get the reference.
