2. Last year I messed with my mate's computer and changed the Windows startup sound. I made it an hour long file, 20minutes of silence so he wouldn't suspect anything and 40minutes of groaning (not continuous, it'd be a soft groan for 2 seconds, then silence then a few minutes later there'd be a louder groan and vice versa). It was extremely hilarious when I heard him shouting "what the fuck".
