Remember the heady days of The Talking Moose and Jared on the old 68k Macs? Man those were fun. There was also this one that barfed and some others which did really annoying things as a prank. In the later days of the Mac, as the PowerPC transition replaced older 68k macs, there was SimStapler from Freeverse. You can relive those heady days with a large collection of software from madman John Schilling.
Just to give you an idea of what you’ll find there’s MacBarfX which emits a barfing sound whenever you eject a volume. There’s EarthquakeX which makes your screen shake at random. There’s Conan The Librarian X which tells users to shut up when they get too loud. If you need something useful and aren’t out to torture your Mac pals there’s Smell-O-Mints, a nice looking table of Periodic Elements.
Most of these applets are Universal Binary and a lot of them run faceless so users can’t just quit them and stop the harassment. Have fun!
